The violence, confl icts, senseless wars, divorces and many other evil activities against each other globally is the lack of patience. The world is facing such atrocities and wickedness because of selfishness, greed, then also people are not ready to understand each other. This small book exposes some of the weaknesses that fi ght against our patience and some strengths which can enhance our patience. It is a book for all who are ready to notice how our impatience can destroy good intentions and also how we can build a society who are ready to embrace each other regardless of colour, religion, age, or sex. Even though the book targets Christians, I should think that politicians, statesmen, married couples, legal institutions and other stakeholders can largely benefi t from reading it.

Growing in Patience Is a Test! Author Brooke McGlothlin notes there’s an old joke that says, “Don’t ask God for patience. He’ll answer by testing yours.” It’s true to some degree, she says. “I don’t know that God is sitting around in heaven just waiting to test our resolve, but parenting, and the Christian life itself, is fundamentally built on trusting something we can’t always see…a master plan that reveals itself little by little and often takes turns we couldn’t predict.” But it’s possible to learn how to wait for God’s perfect timing, even when it seems like we’ve been waiting forever. In this thirty-day devotional and reflective journal, Brooke invites you to consider that patience is: Getting to know Jesus Knowing the cost of salvation Loving through the hard Seeing God in all things Confidence in what we can’t see Waiting with expectation Trusting God with the fight Everyday Prayers for Patience: Giving Yourself and Your Kids the Grace to Grow includes Bible verses on patience, space for journaling, and questions for deeper reflection. The prayers will help you seek God’s heart to discover surer ways to have patience with your children and yourself. Your life and theirs can become beautiful reflections of His great patience with us.

This volume collects the state-of-the-art research on forgiveness and mental and physical health and well-being. It focuses specifically on connections between forgiveness and its health and well-being benefits. Forgiveness has been examined from a variety of perspectives, including the moral, ethical and philosophical. Ways in which to become more forgiving and evolutionary theories of revenge and forgiveness have also been investigated and proposed. However, little attention has been paid to the benefits of forgiveness. This volume offers an examination of the theory, methods and research utilized in understanding these connections. It considers trait and state forgiveness, emotional and decisional forgiveness, and interventions to promote forgiveness, all with an eye toward the positive effects of forgiveness for a victim’s health and well-being. Finally, this volume considers key moderators such as gender, race, and age, as well as, explanatory mechanisms that might mediate links between forgiveness and key outcomes.
