Forgiveness Is for You Too

It’s not letting them off the hook. It’s getting you off theirs.

Someone hurt you, and you’ve been carrying it. This is a guided walk through forgiveness, built on Scripture and on what Christian counselors have learned about how people actually heal. You’ll name the hurt, clear up what forgiveness is and isn’t, cancel the debt, and figure out what the other side looks like for you.

No scores and no rushing. Everything stays private on this phone, and you can stop and come back anytime.

Eight steps: name the wound, myth or truth, what it’s costing you, the whole story, remember mercy, cancel the debt, when it comes back, and the other side.

Built on Matthew 6:12, Matthew 18:21–35, Luke 23:34, Romans 12:17–21, Ephesians 4:26–32, Colossians 2:13–14, Colossians 3:13, Hebrews 12:15 and Genesis 50:20. Steps adapted from Christian psychologist Everett Worthington’s REACH forgiveness model and Robert Enright’s process model of forgiveness. For encouragement, not a substitute for pastoral care, counseling or reporting harm.
