The Power of Forgiveness by author Michael Cooley Sr. is a nonfiction work of Christian living and Christian theology that walks readers through biblical forgiveness in order for them to achieve victory over pain from past hurts and abuse. Using his own personal life experience of being held up by robbers as a teenager, and the emotional and spiritual effects of this traumatic incident, author Michael Cooley Sr. walks readers through steps toward forgiveness and victory over the hurt and pain of the past. These steps to forgiveness include facing the past, overcoming fears, asking others for help, and relying on God for protection and healing, in addition to prayer and thanksgiving. Through application questions at the end of each chapter, readers will be drawn into their own journey of healing through forgiveness.
