reviewed on + 15 more book reviews


The book review states," Forgiveness: a Guide for Prayer, the second book of a five-book series entitled Take and Recieve, speaks to our personal and collective brokenness in light of God's merciful and forgiving love. The books in the Take and Receive series, ecumenical in their approach, give support and direction for private as well as group prayer. Spiritual directors, retreat leaders, and formation personnel will find these books helpful in their work. Each voume is similarly structured: daily meditations, centered on the theme of the book, for each of the six weeks in the cycle. each day's prayer begins with a scriptural passage and includes an insightful commentary and a suggested approach to dht day's reflection. Jacqueline syrup Bergan and Sister Marie Schwan founded the center for Cristioan Renewal in Crookston, Minnesota, in 1976. They are extensively involved in the direction of retreats, parish days of prayer, and workshops on spirituality."
