Moving Forward by Worthington Everett L Jr

Moving Forward by Worthington Everett L Jr

Dr. Worthington provides a path to freedom, from self-condemnation to self-acceptance, and to the life that Christ promises in Moving Forward.

The partial truth about us is hard to accept: We hurt those we love. We fail to step in when others need us most. We do wrong-and we need forgiveness. From others and from God, but also from ourselves.

But the full truth about us is liberating and freeing: while we are more deeply flawed than we can imagine, we also are far more valuable and cherished than we can comprehend. To reach the place of self-forgiveness, we must embrace this truth. The gift of God's acceptance frees us from self-blame, guilt, and shame.

In this practical, inspiring book, Dr. Everett Worthington identifies six steps to forgiving yourself:
Receive God's forgiveness
Repair relationships
Rethink ruminations
REACH emotional self-forgiveness
Rebuild self-acceptance
Resolve to live virtuously

Weaving the story of his brother's suicide and his overwhelming feelings of regret together with psychological insight, scientific research, and biblical truth, Dr. Worthington opens a clear path to obtaining a full, meaningful life through Christ.
