Publisher's summary

God made your heart for love, joy, peace, and wholeness. But pastors say that more than 90% of their congregations struggle with unforgiveness - and unforgiveness can make us forget what we were made for.

What if the most pervasive sin of our day is invisible, hidden deep inside our hearts? What if it affects every aspect of our lives and relationships so quietly and insidiously that most of us miss it altogether? Bruce Wilkinson believes unforgiveness is that sin.

Through the teachings of Jesus, The Freedom Factor reveals the link between our suffering and our unforgiveness. But it also shows how to forgive - for real and forever. The story doesn't have to end with the pain of our wounds. Whatever happened to us happened. But the God who made your heart has shown a way past the wounds, back to the life and love that we were made for - a path toward freedom.

Great book, Okay Audiobook

The message in this book is unique to this book. No one talks about self hatred in a way that proves back at you. My favorite part was discovering that hatred toward yourself is often rooted in pride. That I just can't measure up to my own standards. The inability to extend grace to myself was a message I needed to hear to get me moving on the path to recovery. Healing a self image that left me doomed to the shallows.

GREAT! Much needed for anyone struggling with forgiveness.

This is tremendously practical and helpful for anyone knowing they need to forgive. Bruce walks through steps to forgiveness that you can do as you're reading/listening. A must read, as we all need to forgive others and ourselves!

Game changing! It’s the How not just the Why

This book has changed my life. I’ve heard and read plenty of books/sermons about forgiveness. I’ve never heard anyone break down what to actually do. I feel free. This is exactly what I was looking for and then some. Can’t recommend this book enough!

Powerful Read

When overhearing this book while my wife listened to it, I was convinced I needed to listen to it. I have forgiven myself and others, and I am unburdened because of the steps to forgiveness as explained in this book.

Life Changing

If you have been living in torment and want to be set free this is a book worth reading. It won’t hurt you to try it if you haven’t found the answer in any other form. What a blessing to walk in freedom.
