Forgiveness

Goals for the Learner: In this module, you will work through practical exercises with the goal of becoming a more forgiving individual. You will learn how to forgive, applying a five-step method to “REACH Forgiveness” in relation to transgressions you have experienced.

You can truly become a person who has few unresolved hurts and who can resolve new hurts quickly and thoroughly.
