    Although sexuality is one of God’s good gifts to us, it is often misunderstood by Christians and distorted by the world.

    When everything in you wants to hold a grudge, point a finger, remember the pain, God wants you to lay it all aside and experience the biblical truth: “release them and you will be set free.”  In this course you will learn how to be healed from the pain and find room in your heart for forgiveness to experience the incredible freedom found in total forgiveness.  You will learn how to develop a game plan to uncover the physical, emotional, and spiritual consequences of unforgiveness and how you can enjoy the best God has to offer you.  Our resource book is Total Forgiveness by R.T. Kendall.
