Many people today suffer from emotional wounds and disappointments. We all know that pain is inevitable, but we wish it didn't have to be that way.Through his book, Dr. Clinton will show readers how to move beyond the hurt of the past and toward forgiveness. They will be able to develop a plan to live in a new way and see their lives as God intends them to be. Dr. Clinton explains that everyone must recognize there will be periods when life is unkind, confusing, and even painful. In this work, Tim addresses questions such as: * What takes a man or woman of faith to a place of anger, anxiety, arrogance, even addiction? * What is the pathway to recovery? * Can you really "break free" of the bondage of a hurtful past? And if so, how? The key to being able to turn your life around is in understanding that God loves to use brokenness and powerlessness to draw those who are hurting back to Him. This is when He can show you His plan for your life and make it beautiful in spite of what is in your past
