About this listen
In this book, Charles Stanley, one of the most influential spiritual leaders of our day, describes the key to personal and even world peace. Stanley points out that there is no sin so shockingly evil it blocks God's forgiveness nor so trivial it negates the need for God's mercy and shares the specifics of how to go about receiving and giving forgiveness.
The Gift of Forgiveness reflects the heart of Stanley's teaching ministry. In this markedly helpful audiobook, he addresses such questions as how to practice a life of forgiveness in all your relationships and how to make forgiveness an ongoing, practical experience in your life.
Reflection questions are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Charles Stanley helps you recognize and begin to live with the guiding presence of the Holy Spirit by challenging you in three parts to look up, within, and ahead. Life abundant - Jesus promised it and we long for it, yet few Christians seem to have it. Blending lively anecdotes, commentary, and teachings from the Bible, Charles Stanley introduces you to the Holy Spirit. He is not an oversized electrical current you just plug into when you need additional help, or a theological concept, but just as real and active as Christ.

In Stuck in Reverse, Dr. Charles Stanley issues one clear call, “No matter what life sends your way, don’t give up.

Prayer is communication. It is not a formula that we have memorized, or an empty repetition of words and phrases, but our conversation with God—with us first speaking and then listening to what God has to say to us in return. Yet as Dr. Charles Stanley reveals, our prayers go beyond mere human interaction in that they give us access into the very throne room of God. Our heavenly Father grants us the privilege to come before him with authority because of our position in Christ. When we do, we can be bold in believing that God will accomplish what He promised He would do in our lives.

For years I’ve felt this huge wall around my heart that prevented me from loving fully my family. This book revealed the nature of that wall: years of hurt, resentment, hate and bitterness. Finally, that wall came crashing down. I am now free. Thank you. Thank you. To God be the glory!
