The words we say
If you are like me, you grew up having to say "I forgive you" when someone said "I'm sorry." As you got older, you may have learned people don't always say "I'm sorry." And the words "I forgive you" didn't magically make forgiveness happen.
Or maybe you listened to stories, teachings or sermons on forgiveness and you were convinced that forgiveness was a good idea. But no-one really taught you how to forgive. |
Forgiveness? No way!

![]() For thousands of years philosophers and theologians have promoted forgiveness. Forgiveness is core to many worldviews. A few decades ago, psychologists and others began to test and research how people forgive and if forgiveness is good for us. The great news is their work has resulted in ways we can learn to forgive one another. AND what they have learned is available to everyone. It is available to you.
Tim Markle has been teaching forgiveness for over 5 years in Wisconsin. He has been on his forgiveness journey for much longer than that. He is available to speak about forgiveness and other topics. Tim's teachings are based on the fantastic work of Dr. Robert Enright, "the father of forgiveness research." |
