Suspenseful and richly atmospheric, June Hur's The Forest of Stolen Girls is a haunting historical mystery sure to keep readers guessing until the last page.1426, Joseon (Korea). Hwani's family has never been the same since she and her younger sister went missing and were later found unconscious in the forest near a gruesome crime scene. Years later, Detective Min―Hwani's father―learns that thirteen girls have recently disappeared from the same forest that nearly stole his daughters. He travels to their hometown on the island of Jeju to investigate… only to vanish as well. Determined to find her father and solve the case that tore their family apart, Hwani returns home to pick up the trail. As she digs into the secrets of the small village―and collides with her now estranged sister, Maewol―Hwani comes to realize that the answer could lie within her own buried memories of what happened in the forest all those years ago.

When someone hurts us, our natural response is to strike back. Rather than let go, we cling to our rocks of resentment, our boulders of bitterness. The result? We struggle under the weight of unforgiveness.Though we know God has called us to forgive others, we find ourselves asking:What if it hurts too much to forgive?What if the other person isn't sorry?How can I let someone off the hook for doing something so wrong?Biblical counselor June Hunt has been there herself, enabling her to speak from experience as she offers biblical help and hope with heartfelt compassion. If you've been pinned down under a landslide of pain, here's how to find true freedom through forgiveness.

Learn to Forgive, to Break from Bitterness, and to Remove Resentment "I forgive you." These three little words are so simple, so complex, and yet so powerful! Forgiveness gives us permission to let go of recent irritation, bitterness, long−held grudges from minor offenses, and festering hurts that keep us up at night. Relationships filled with resentment and bitterness ultimately perish. Relationships filled with forgiveness ultimately prevail. Learn how you can be an expression of God's grace by forgiving others and find the freedom He intended you to have. June Hunt starts this minibook with a definitions section where she explains each word associated with forgiveness. Learn all forms of forgiveness and the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation. Also included in the definitions section are Biblical examples where Jesus forgave sinners and how we can follow his example. Forgiveness isn't based on a feeling, but rather on the fact that God calls us to forgive. The last section titled, "Steps to Solution", gives you practical advice on how to have a heart of forgiveness with: 4 stages of forgiveness Forgiveness vs. reconciliation Honesty required for reconciliation A sample prayer to forgive your offender 7 ways to sustain a forgiving heart And much more! Forgiveness will shed light on the characteristics of an unforgiving heart and the high cost of unforgiveness versus the high reward of forgiveness. Read the captivating story of how Corrie Ten Boom, a woman who survived a Nazi concentration camp, forgave one of her prison guards. Losing her father and sister to that same concentration camp made forgiving this man very hard, for it was only by the grace of God that helped her choose to forgive rather than to be entrapped in bitterness.

These minibooks are for people who seek freedom from codependency, anger, conflict, verbal and emotional abuse, depression, or other problems.
