Christian Book Previews

`Everyone and everything can be forgiven' is the theme of Julie Ann Barnhill's latest book, Radical Forgiveness. Many have condemned themselves so strongly in areas of their lives, that all hope has been lost for a complete cleansing. This book will show this just is not true. The use of scripture throughout the book assures beyond a shadow of a doubt that God's forgiveness is so radical, it covers even those hidden spots no one knows about. Julie speaks in such a conversational style you can almost hear her voice. You can picture her sitting next to you assuring that due to the forgiveness and grace waiting, sin confessed and turned from is a beautiful thing. Julie's honesty, vulnerability, and understanding of grace make her more than qualified to write this book. Leading by example, Julie shows how to face what we really need to face: we are a mess. She writes, "All of us need to embrace the messy reality of our existence, for nothing can happen until we admit it." She leads us there by going first and revealing some of what makes her life a mess. She reveals fact and fiction about forgiveness, and how what we say and what we really mean sometimes are two completely different things. She then gives insight on how to master the mind games we play, and how real girlfriends can make our paths so much smoother. What an excellent book! Its strength lies in Julie's ability to relate simply one woman to another. She reveals that there is not one thing hidden that could be beyond God's willingness and desire to forgive. If you are a woman who has things concealed, if shame has a hold on any part of you, if you want a friend to help you understand how radical God's forgiveness really is, I suggest you read this book. -- Sheri Carlstrom, Christian Book Previews.com

Raves and Waves for Radical Forgiveness

Julie Ann Barnhill delivers authenticity and vulnerability in her book Radical Forgiveness. In this book you will hear someone say out loud some of internal dialogue in your own head and realize "I am not alone." In the chapter titled "It's all About Me" she recalls overhearing a conversation between two attendees at a Christian convention in New Orleans. They were talking about all the "sinful" people of this city who were probably not Christians. She remembers how turned off she was by the gossip. How many of us have been the "Christian" gossip or have overheard the gossip and been turned off. Julie Ann does an excellent job of convicting in a non-judgmental way because she walks alongside us, not ahead wagging her finger. In fact she walks beside us revealing some of the messes she has made in her own life. This book will help uncover hidden thoughts, past mistakes and current ways that need to be forgiven. You will be drawn to the pages as Julie shows God's desire to forgive all the messy parts of us. Shame, guilt and concealing are all wiped out completely as God calls us to a place that is so radical that after laying truth on the table we actually find peace, not condemnation. Radical Forgivness is an excellent book! Julie Ann is funny, honest and real. You will find yourself laughing even as she takes you to a deeper level. Her use of scripture assures us that this idea of forgiveness is truth, not just an idea to make us feel better. If you are scorched in any part of your life, have made a mistake in which you cannot offer forgiveness to yourself, I suggest you read this book!
