If you read this book with a highlighter, you're gonna have highlights on every page. One of my favorite quotes from the book is, "There's a difference between anger that protects and motivates you, and anger that imprisons and exhausts you." Chapter 4 is the best stuff I've ever read on boundaries."- Pastor Roger GraberAbout the AuthorKeith West knows what it's like to be stuck in anger-not just from observing and helping others, but from his own difficult journey through hurt and forgiveness. After walking through his own process of healing, he's spent fifteen years studying forgiveness and sitting with hundreds of people who said, "I just can't forgive that"-and then watched them discover they could.Keith doesn't offer Christian clichés or easy answers. He offers honest, practical tools that work whether you're deeply religious or not religious at all. His approach to forgiveness is simple. It's about getting your own life back.After serving as a pastor at Reality Church in Papillion, Nebraska, Keith felt called to focus his efforts on building a ministry dedicated to forgiveness and healing.
