Follow on Google News | Forgiveness: We Know We SHOULD. But HOW?Author Scot Conway draws upon decades of mentoring and counseling to teach us his Five Step Forgiveness Technique. His new book on forgiveness provides this and several other simple techniques to actually DO the forgiveness we know we need to do.
“The difference is that we do not hold the action against the person. It is a ‘data point,’ meaning we know that given those particular circumstances that this individual person was willing to do that sort of thing. If, later, we see that they have changed, we can set it aside. It is not a weapon to use in future arguments, but it is a warning light in case we see the same sort of thing again.” “More importantly, we should learn from it. We should gain insight, understanding… There are a lot of people who teach about forgiveness, but not many teach really concrete techniques on HOW. Conway does that in his book. “My basic technique is Five Step Forgiveness. Over the years, I’ve found this to be the most thorough and useful technique.

It lets you pick up the real lessons for real wisdom that can help you. “ He does not stop with his signature technique. He provides a variation that he says is “used for patterns of behavior.

Conway provides an answer to that, too. His book contains a series of exercises to help us with our visual memory and our creative imagination. They are divided into three levels: basic, intermediate and advanced. Follow that system, and you, too, can control the pictures in your head. The full name of Conway’s book is We’re Told in The Bible Forgiveness Is Important: A Five Step Way to Do It! It is available for the Kindle at Amazon.com.
