Synopsis

R. T. Kendall's "Total Forgiveness" touched a raw nerve amongst Christian readers and rapidly became this prolific writer's fastest- and best-selling book. It still sells 5000 copies a year, five years after original publication. But it only told half the story - how to forgive others. The teaching is completed with R. T.'s brilliant account of how it is equally important that we forgive ourselves. "Totally Forgiving Ourselves" is classic R. T. Kendall - honest, sympathetic, biblical teaching on an aspect of the Christian life common to us all. Everyone has something in their past for which they need to forgive themselves as well as other people. Unless we do so, we are not only damaging ourselves but restricting our usefulness in God's service.

Review

Totally Forgiving Ourselves is the excellent sequel to Total Forgiveness. As one would expect with any of RT Kendall's books this is a very easy book to read, but actually taking in what he is saying did make me stop and think.

We can all feel guilty about things we have done or said, but is it the right kind of wrong that we are feeling guilty of. RT Kendall says possibly not, and explains very well in his book about the different sorts of guilt. And once you've forgiven yourself, do you do it just once or is it a thing you must do frequently. Again RT Kendall leads you through the how, when, why and what for very eloquently. I highly recommend this thought provoking book that can help relieve any guilt you may be feeling.
