The Fourfold Path of forgiveness: Telling the story, naming the hurt, granting forgiveness, and renewing or releasing the relationship. Also contains chapters on how to forgive yourself and how forgiveness heals the world/community. I thought this was book was good, and I appreciated the real-world examples for each of the steps and moving forward through the cycle of forgiveness instead of the cycle of revenge. I also really liked the poetry at the end of each chapter. Ultimately giving it three stars because though it's good material, it read kind of slow for me and it felt like parts were too long and repetitive.
