Ep. 049 – Sticky Resentments, Spiritual Bypass and Global Forgiveness Healing with Dr. Everett Worthington
In part two, Dr. Worthington gets really vulnerable and tells the story of forgiving the person who murdered his mother… and also the story that actually took him ten years to forgive. We talk about spiritual bypass. We talk about praying for those who hurt us. I share the Heart Journey tool of praying your top ten desires over the person who hurt you… morning and night… and how God uses that to melt rumination. We also talk about grief that remains even after we forgive. Then Dr. Worthington shares something I love… how a simple three-hour forgiveness workbook is improving mental health in places like Ukraine… South Africa… Colombia… China… and more. So much hope.
