I enjoyed reading this book. It helps me to understand better those who have been wounded, and to understand my own wounds also. One of my favorite quotes is this, "When we have personally experienced the difficult things of life--fear, rejection, betrayal, shame, loneliness, hurt--we develop a gentle heart towards others in pain." Some more statements that challenged me are: "Difficulties soften our heart and make us less judgmental. Reach out more and give less advice. If there is any tenderness to my heart, it has come through its been broken. Acceptance says, 'I don't like this, but I know God can give me the strength to make it through.' A Harvard trained psychologist made this statement, 'Many patients can reduce their anxiety and depression symptoms by half if they'll sleep 8 to 9 hours a night.' In times of weakness I realize once again how profound and desperate is my need for God and His power to change me." I believe this book will be a blessing and encouragement to you.

Asombroso.

Este libro es demasiado increíble. Me llegó en momentos en que lo necesitaba y me ayudó a entender muchas cosas. Además, pude ver lo grande que Dios ha hecho en mi vida y lo que hará. También pude escuchar la voz de Dios en este libro.
Una enorme bendición en mi vida.
Demasiado recomendado este libro para todo aquel que esté pasando crisis e incluso si no estás pasando por ello, te ayuda a animar a otros.

Chapters are written by each author (their name is at the beginning of the chapter) Definitely faith based book. Deals with multiple types of hurts. Uses well known persons as examples in dealing with hurt and overcoming it.

This was an excellent book and one that I will continue to use as a reference as I continue with Correctional Ministries - Mentoring. This was one of the books I chose to meet my required reading requirements from Christian University. I would recommend this to anyone who is working with those that are broken AND I would recommend it to anyone who has any of their own wounds that they have not dealt with (and maybe even if they have). There is great insight that will lead you to the Lord to ask Him to heal.
