Perhaps you have tried and those negative emotions keep coming back.

Have you ever forgiven yourself for past mistakes?

Today's episode is a powerful episode of “Finding Freedom Through Forgiveness: How To Forgive Others and Yourself”.

I’m your host, Lori Snyder, and I will be sharing from my personal healing experience and years of being a spiritual mentor and Bible teacher.

We dive into the topic of finding freedom through forgiveness:

-what forgiveness truly is

-what it is not

-why it is crucial to extend forgiveness towards others, ourselves, and even God.

Discover the profound impact forgiveness has on our emotional well-being, relationships, and overall sense of peace and joy. Join us as we explore the path to healing, restoration, and embracing a life of true freedom.

[Main Discussion Points]

• What forgiveness is and what it is not: We debunk myths and clarify the true essence of forgiveness, emphasizing that it does not minimize the pain but releases the burden of bitterness and resentment.
• The power of forgiving others: We explore how holding onto unforgiveness imprisons us and discuss the transformative impact of choosing to forgive, including healing, restoration, and deep inner peace.
• Forgiving ourselves: We address the self-condemnation and guilt we often carry, emphasizing God's unlimited forgiveness and the importance of self-acceptance and love.
• Forgiving God: We navigate the complexities of forgiving God when we feel disappointed or let down, reminding listeners that God is the source of healing and restoration, not the source of our pain.
• The forgiveness journey: We provide practical steps to actively pursue forgiveness, including acknowledging the pain, making a conscious choice to forgive, seeking support, and practicing self-compassion.

Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself—a path to liberation and a path for experiencing God's love and grace. Embracing forgiveness leads to a life of abundant joy, peace, and freedom. So, let go, release the burden, and step into the transformative power of forgiveness.
