The Joy of Forgiving

About this book

There is no offence humanity could ever face that could be compared to the joy and liberty we receive from forgiveness. Has someone ever wronged you and left you thinking, "Why should I forgive them? Why do they deserve to be forgiven?" Forgiveness is such a foreign concept for our minds to comprehend especially if we have no understanding of the forgiveness God the Father has extended to us. He has offered each of us forgiveness before we even acknowledge our offences. Can you imagine how different the world might be if each of us lived out this same example with those around us? Before Jill Hyatt Cook came to know the Lord, unforgiveness entangled her heart, suffocating any chance at real love she might have had in relationships with family, friends, or even a spouse. The worst part was how she didn't even know the joy and freedom which was lacking in her life. Through The Joy of Forgiveness, Jill recounts how God softened her hardened heart through the spirit of humility, by teaching her to forgive others by living out his love, Grace, and mercy; along with accepting forgiveness from others. Jill Hyatt Cook was a professional stylist for over 20 years. She now enjoys pastoring and coaching at Wellness Forgiveness Center in San Carlos, California. When she is not helping individuals walk through the joy and liberty found through forgiveness, she and her husband enjoy traveling and spending time with their children and grandchildren.
