Just Forgiveness - Exploring The Bible, Weighing The Issues

Anthony Bash offers new insights into forgiveness from a biblical perspective, taking into account important findings in philosophy, politics and psychology. The book explores what the Bible says about forgiveness so that we can better experience its regenerative and renewing effects.
