Publisher's summary

Susannah Griffith wishes she had spent less time thinking about forgiveness. But as a Christian minister, a biblical scholar, and a survivor of abuse, she has learned a lot about it.

In Forgiveness after Trauma, Griffith explores what the Bible says—and doesn't say—about the biblical call to forgive. She helps listeners understand this command in ways that are healing and restorative, framing it within broader concerns around lament, anger, accountability, release and rebirth, and reconciliation.

The result is what Griffith calls "trauma-informed forgiveness," which takes seriously God's forgiveness of sinners while centering survivors of abuse and aiding their healing. This view also empowers those who have been harmed in other ways by abuses of power and justice in religious institutions.

Listeners will resonate with Griffith's astute biblical analysis and personal reflection, which point to God's love—a love that never includes abuse and strives for justice for the vulnerable.

A Grace Filled take on Forgiveness

When someone experiences trauma and seeks counsel from a spiritual leader they often are met with a prescription to forgive quickly and reconcile just as fast. The author takes the reader on the journey of her own trauma and what she learned forgiveness can look like. A must read for anyone who has been told to forgive before being able to process what's happened to them.
