Healing the Wounded Heart: Forgiving One Another Through the Enabling Power of Jesus Christ

Forgiving one another is one of the foundational teachings the Savior gave to all of His disciples. He made its importance unmistakably clear: to be forgiven yourself, you must forgive others. Yet for many, forgiveness can feel confusing, unfair, or even impossible. Deep wounds, repeated offenses, family conflict, betrayal, and lingering pain can leave the heart burdened and unsure how to move forward. Still, the Lord lovingly teaches that forgiveness is essential to our peace, our healing, and our discipleship.

In Healing the Wounded Heart, Roger Connors, four-time New York Times bestselling author, offers a doctrinally grounded and deeply practical guide to forgiving others through the enabling power of Jesus Christ. Drawing on scripture, teachings of modern prophets, and research-supported insights, he explains why forgiveness is required, why it is often misunderstood, and how the Savior makes possible what can feel beyond our strength.

With compassion and clarity, readers will discover how to release resentment, find emotional and spiritual healing, and move forward with confidence. Through personal stories, self-assessments, practical tools, and inspiring “spotlights,” this book provides hope for anyone facing wounds that seem slow to heal. Healing the Wounded Heart offers a doctrinally rich and practical framework for understanding Christlike forgiveness and how to better experience the freedom, peace, and healing that come from freely extending it.
