Forgiving What You Can't Forget Customer Reviews

I enjoyed this and learned a lot of great tools to deal with hurt.

Really don’t like this book, the way she reads it is irritating, seems like she is talking to a two year old child . . I don’t think I will be able to finish, I listened About 2 hours of it and I don’t think I can take it anymore. Did not find it helpful at all. Deleting from my library right now.

There are way too many biblical references that ruin the flow of the book. On top of that, there is another book this seems entirely ripped off of from 2017, Forgiving What You’ll Never Forget. Don’t waste your money.

To the author: congratulations on a well-researched and well-meaning book on a difficult topic, a topic which deserves much more attention than it tends to garner. Over all I think the message is sound and can be helpful.

2 pieces of constructive criticism:

1) you need a better editor: the book is overly wordy, meandering and somewhat indirect in reaching its ends. You need a skilled editor to better trim the fat out of the writing and to better streamline the message

2) for the audiobook: you need to hire a professional to recite it. Your reading style — while I’m sure comes from your heart — is overly plaintive and pleading. It’s grueling to listen to your dramatic pauses, sometimes sounding like a period. After. Each. Word.

Thank you for writing it.

Maybe a revised edition could correct the flaws.

It was a very hard listen and found it hard to follow.

Lysa never disappoints. I’ve been reading her books as my life begins to look a lot like hers, in all the worst ways. She doesn’t skirt around the brutality of the things other people do to us sometimes, and it was important for me to hear that - to call it what it is - wrong & devastating. And she always manages to breathe hope in & point you back to Jesus. A book to cling to.

It’s honest simplicity of how to heal yourself with God’s help!

God fixes us. We do not fix ourselves without Him.

It’s hard to “feel” the book as the readers emotions do not feel and sound sincere. It seems more like a preaching than a book reading.

Great points made, but I prefer life advice to be based off real life results and premise, rather than directly religious based beliefs or preaching. Still listening though.

Great Book, sometimes two people are at fault for disagreements, sometimes just one. Either way this book teaches us to forgive ourselves and others 🤍
