Editorial Review:
To forgive somone can be simple. But this simple act can have powerul consequences - and may lead to a personal and spiritual transformation. Recently, the study of forgiveness has come into its own.
Researchers are examining the psychological and physical effects of forgiveness under an amazingly wide variety of conditions, ranging from petty insults to sexual assault to 9/11. Clinicians now help guide people to forgive transgressions and get on with their lives. From Ground Zero to Northern Ireland to the Amish countryside, THE POWER OF FORGIVENESS explores this important concept, and reveals how forgiveness can transform your life.

Rating:  - The Beginning of a Dialogue
The film is great as an overview. It is not nor should it be an in-depth or comprehensive study of forgiveness. Its sets the stage for further discussion and I plan to use it as such. This should just be the beginning of worthwhile discussions on what forgiveness is, how do we accomplish the act and how can it be applied to individuals and communities.

Is forgiving simply a spiritual experience between an individual and God or does it play out on many different levels? These and other questions are addressed in this look at forgiveness by filmmaker Martin Doblmeier (Bonhoeffer). It looks at real life examples of forgiveness such as the Amish in the wake of the killing of five Amish schoolgirls that ripped their community. It shows the speech Elie ... Read More

"The Power of Forgiveness"
Healing
Amos Lassen
Forgiving is painful but many times it is necessary in order for one to move on. Forgiving may be simple or extremely difficult and I am sure many of you wondered, as did I, how the Amish community could forgive the murder of its children. "The Power of Forgiveness" is a bold new documentary that shows how forgiveness can bring about both personal and spiritual transformation.
