Summary |
Whether you are a parent, spouse, manager, colleague, friend, pastor, or all of the above, this course is for you. It brings cutting-edge science to one of the most important aspects of our interpersonal relationships: forgiveness. At first glance, you might think forgiveness looks like a bundle of paradoxes. Philosophers, theologians, and authors have written about its complexities for centuries. And now scientists have joined the fray, confirming the many benefits that practicing forgiveness will bring you. Your guide is Professor Everett Worthington, Ph.D., one of the world's leading experts on forgiveness and relationship counseling. He also brings to the fore decades of experience researching forgiveness in the context of justice and faith. Because the scientific interest in forgiveness falls under the general rubric of positive psychology, forgiveness is seen as a choice-and a good habit to get into. Studies show that the consistent practice of forgiveness reaps rewards to your physical, psychological, relational, and spiritual health and wellbeing. On a bigger scale, forgiveness is a central pillar in promoting peace among groups, organizations, and societies. This is where the rubber meets the road. How can you apply these findings to your individual situation? Prof. Worthington offers you practical guidance about interventions, devoting special attention to his REACH Forgiveness model. Through this groundbreaking and masterful course, you will acquire the tools to think not only philosophically or theologically about forgiveness, but also practically. You'll find that the scientific approach to forgiveness will indelibly enrich your life and relationships. |
