When Annette Stanwick s brother was tragically murdered, she never dreamed her journey of healing would take her to a place of forgiveness. The journey of healing wasn t easy as she moved through the stages of grief, experiencing the pain, anger and confusion we all experience when crisis hits. Through an amazing turn of events the author felt led by God to publicly forgive her brother s murderers in the courtroom. Forgiveness created a miracle in her life and heart; changing her so dramatically she developed a passion to help others find a way to heal from their own painful life situations, whatever they might be. That passion has taken her into university settings, inside prison walls, around boardroom tables, on speaking platforms and interacting with people living on the street. FORGIVENESS: THE MYSTERY AND MIRACLE - Finding Freedom and Peace at Last is an amazing account of that miraculous journey. The authors desire in life has been to learn from the difficulties life brought her way and to always make a difference wherever that path traveled. Her book about forgiveness is making a difference in the lives of its readers through the deep learning the author shares with candid vulnerability. From the very first sentence, this book is captivating, spanning a lifetime of learning. Wanting the book to be more than an amazing story, the author crafted the book in such a way that following the story in each chapter the reader is invited into a personal application that assists them in understanding the principles and impact the chapter topic may have in their own life. A series of practical questions assists the reader in a gentle process of exploring their own difficult circumstances. A meaningful prayer at the end of each chapter provides a spiritual connection and model for the reader to use in talking to God about their situation. The author s well-designed HEALING PROCESS FOR EMOTIONAL WOUNDS diagrammed in the early pages of the book provides a backdrop and graphic depiction of the various stages in the healing journey useful for the reader and/or healing/caring professional in identifying progress on the healing pathway. Annette s personal experiences are amazing. Her insights are remarkable and her ability to find deep learning and healing in spite of the tragedies she has faced, gives the reader hope that they too can endure, overcome and rise above their own unique experiences, says Thelma Box of CHOICES INTERNATIONAL. The power of personal choice is a strong theme throughout the book as the mysteries and miracles of forgiveness are unraveled to aid the reader in letting go of those things that hold them back from experiencing the freedom and peace they seek. Les Hewitt, Top Performance Business Coach and International best selling author of The Power of Focus states, In this masterpiece of personal growth and triumph, Annette Stanwick turns the aftermath of a tragic murder into a model for healing. Lucille Mandin, Ph.D, University of Alberta says, This book is a gift to humanity. FORGIVENESS: THE MYSTERY AND MIRACLE is impacting the lives and hearts of its readers. Unexpected stories are emerging from individuals in various walks of life who are healing from all types of wounds. This book brought miraculous healing to our family at the time we needed it most. Says L.P. an organizational director. Christian psychiatrists and counselors are extolling the benefits of the book for readers and for use in their professional practice settings. The power of this book is in the author s ability to spotlight the difficult and perplexing real life situations we all face, yet often feel so alone as we navigate the maze of corridors we travel in trying to cope with the relationship challenges that continually arise. Stanwick invites the reader to take an intimate look at those real life situations but then takes the reader by the hand; friend to friend, giving them the opportunity and encouragement to reflect on their own particul… (mais)

NCLA Review -Forgiving a murderer is so remarkable that it usually makes the paper. Reader reactions to the forgiver vary from “You must be crazy!” to “I could never do that.” Though Christ commanded his followers to forgive regardless of the offense, un-forgiveness seems to be the common default option, particularly if the offense is major. Annette Stanwick was spiritually mature enough to obey that command, and to realize that the forgiveness she offered to her brother’s murderers would free and heal her whether or not it affected them. “Mystery and miracle” well describes her experience. Yet she wrote the book not just to set an example, but to lead others through the complex and difficult act of forgiving. As she tells her story, Stanwick pauses to pose questions that help the reader relate to the insights she gained, and move them step by step toward the healing that can be theirs. The emotional pain she endured screams from the pages, but so does the joy that overflows when the gift of forgiveness truly fills her heart. An excellent book for church and public libraries. Rating: 4 —DKW 212p, paper, Heart Message 2007, 978-0-9783545-0-3, $18.95 [234.4] ( )
