About this audiobook
The star of BETs Mind, Body & Soul, and featured guest speaker on Oprah’s Lifeclass, Potters House pastor T.D. Jakes offers readers Let It Go: Forgive So You Can Be Forgiven, the New York Times bestselling book inspired by the Lord’s Prayer which explores forgiveness as a life practice and offers specific and clear actions for readers who seek to apply it in every area of their lives—their marriages, their families, their friendships, and their business relationships. “Offenses are a part of life,” says Jakes, “but conflicts can be resolved and relationships restored when we stop paying the past with the resources of our future.” If you’re a fan of Joel Osteen’s Become a Better You or Dr. Phil’s Life Strategies, you’ll love the message in Let It Go, which challenges us to release ourselves and others from the crippling grudges and binding resentments that hold us back when we do not forgive others. “Forgiveness is a big idea and works best when invested into people who have the courage to grasp the seven-foot idea of what’s best for their future rather than the four-foot-high idea of recompense for what has happened in the past,” Jakes writes.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I honestly never understood forgiveness until reading this book. Jakes beautifully explains forgiveness from the definition of the word to what it means to both give and receive this gift and he does so in a manner that is both poignant and elegant while remaining simplistic enough that even the most bitter broken-hearted novice can receive these teachings. I’m not a Christian, not by a far cry, but this book have me a healing that I didn’t even know I was in need of. I would recommend this book to everyone. It truly is a must read!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It took me longer than I expected or wanted to read this book. However, I was able to pull some very good lessons out of it and apply them to several situations that I was facing during 2013. I did not finish reading it because...well, once I learned how to let go of different negative feelings I was harboring in those situations I mentioned, I just didn't feel like reading the rest. Although I really don't share my books with other people (I'm a book hoarder
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very good insight and extremely helpful information. I plan to re-read / listen to again some chapters.
