Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I read though a lot of the reviews. My review is a response to some of the other reviews I read. Lysa is openly coming from a Christian perspective. I share her faith, so that was essential to me, and encouraging to me. I think some people were put off by the theme of her faith through the book- but again- she is openly Christian. Others said it wasn’t “Bible based” or Christian enough. I have really thought about this response too. Lysa isn’t claiming this is a theological expose on forgiveness. She is giving a personal testimony and sharing how God brought her through the specific pain and trauma she suffered. I would say that her vulnerability and love for her readers IS Christ-like. She reminds us that we can’t do this in our own power. Sometimes the pain and hurt is just too deep. One more thing I’d add... if you are coming to this book because you’re hurting in pain because of unforgiveness in your heart- spend some serious time devoted to prayer as you read through this book. There is nothing magical or mighty about the book. But we do have a mighty God who can heal all our wounds. Ask him to help you. He helped me. All that to say- I loved it! Thanks, Lysa for writing it!
