Jentezen Franklin has written a raw, honest book about the hard parts of walking in love. Difficult times with family members can challenge believers to apply God's truth to situations we don't feel prepared to face. Using personal experiences and wisdom, Franklin offers believers hope and practical actions to heal hurt between loved ones. This is hopeful and helpful, though it comes from a place of hurt.

This is a powerful book about doing what doesn't come naturally, loving like you've never been hurt. Our natural inclination is to lash out our want to hurt others in retaliation. What a beautiful and biblical concept presented here to live like Jesus loved. Highly recommend read!!

This is a book you HAVE to read. Everyone have been hurt, but not everybody knows how to deal with forgiveness (or the one who hurt).
We all know the christian principle of forgiving. The author emphasis the need (and the success) of loving the one(s) who has (have) hurt us. With personal stories and a very appealing writing style, the author catches you from understanding the hurt and the benefits of forgiving to loving yourself first and starting being kind.
I loved the chapter where he pleads for marriage and family. Very practical advices.

This book is important for everyone to read. There is a great take-away that applies to all kinds of relationships, whether it's your family, spouse or co-workers. A timely message that needs to be heard.

This is a wonderful book about the power of forgiveness. I had never read anything by this author and saw this on Netgalley . It was just what I needed to read. Thank you NetGalley for giving me copy and as soon as this is released in paperback I will order it.

I feel pretty emotional after reading this lovely book. Love like you've never been hurt. An amazing collection of self help with forgiving and quotes from the Bible to help you through whatever ordeal you may be going through. Some parts even made me cry. I think we all need a little help sometimes pushing through this lot we call life. I thought the passages of the Bible clearly helped to put his amazing points about forgiveness and healing yourself across. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who has been hurt or needs some soothing words to heal. I'm going to buy this in print, it's an amazing book that you can read over and over. Thanks to netgalley and the author for a copy to read and review. This just happened to be just what God needed me to read right now. Amazing book.

After a terrible betrayal, aren't they all? I struggle to find forgiveness for someone that I really just want to slap into the next county. I saw the title of this book an requested it before I read the whole description.

I did find it very helpful, despite all the heavy Christian/God stuff. I never understand why these pele have such a hard time with being gay and why that should be such a heartbreaker there is a consistent theme about this throughout- otherwise it is a thoughtful and helpful book.

I suspect I will need to read it a few times and the author does say that it can take quite a hil to find that kind of peace in your heart for someone is a total asshole, which gave me some peace since I can' seem to find any real compassion for the bad guy yet,

It is clear that many of us suffer such heartbreak and carry it without it necessarily being obvious, but profound nonetheless. I am grateful for this book and its message. While I don't enjoy anyone's else's misery- expect for the jerk who hurt me so badly- there is some comfort in knowing that others understand and must find a way forward as well.

There is some solace, he gives some ideas that forgiving is not giving the bad guy a bye, but a way to find some path through the anger, the frustration, the pain and find a way to live with what happened.

What a powerful and tender book about the work of love and forgiveness. I appreciate the way that the author adds his own personal stories to the book. To me, it gives the book a level of authenticity that leads to the power of his words and his suggestions. Great book.
