După ce vor urma paşii recomandaţi, cititorii vor depăşi dificultatea morală de a fi iertaţi sau de a-i ierta pe cei de lângă ei.

Jennifer was a "good girl"-so how did she end up pregnant at seventeen? By the time the baby was born, her boyfriend had moved away; he said they could keep their long distance relationship strong, but they didn''t. They broke up, and Jennifer was left alone with a new baby and parents who looked at her differently. She was no longer their little girl; she was now a little mom. Having always wanted to go to college, Jennifer was disturbed by the lack of good educational programs for young mothers. She struggled, not only with her education, but with the way society-and friends-looked at her and her baby. Life was forever changed, and she felt very alone ... until she remembered there was someone who would always love and support her, no matter the situation. Moving Forward is the true story of Jennifer Thomas-teenage mother, college graduate, wife, and follower of Christ. As soon as Jennifer turned her face to the Lord, she found hope. Her path rarely went in the direction she had planned, but God always has the best intentions for His children. A personal retelling of a painful path, Moving Forward will move you and make you believe in a limitless Savior.

Que ceux qui n''ont jamais commis d''erreurs lèvent la main. Celles-ci font malheureusement partie de l''expérience humaine. Les conséquences de nos bévues, sur nous-mêmes ou sur ceux qui nous entourent, ne sont pas toujours anodines et il arrive qu''un simple " excusez-moi " ne suffise pas à rétablir une relation. Et si votre interlocuteur attendait d''autres mots qui le rassureraient sur votre sincérité ? En d''autres termes, et si vous ne parliez pas tous les deux le même langage d''excuse ? C''est bien ce que pensent Jennifer Thomas et Gary Chapman (l''auteur du best-seller Les langages de l''amour) après une étude faite sur la manière dont les personnes s''excusent. Leurs expériences de conseil conjugal les ont conduits à constater les incompréhensions que ces différences peuvent engendrer au sein des relations. Dégageant cinq langages d''excuses distincts, ils nous montrent à travers ce livre comment mieux cerner notre propre fonctionnement en la matière et décoder celui de nos interlocuteurs. L''art de présenter des excuses sincères peut non seulement s''apprendre en toute simplicité, mais également révolutionner nos relations, brisant ainsi des barrières qui auparavant nous auraient semblé infranchissables. Les auteurs nous livrent dans cet ouvrage de formidables leçons de vie à la portée de chacun et une aide pour guérir les relations, de couple, familiales, professionnelles, de voisinage, et au-delà.
