    About this ebook

    Guilt! Shame! Embarrassment! These are the three most powerful reasons why people feel their sins are unforgiveable. Intellectually, Christians know God forgives, but emotionally, they won't accept self-forgiveness. Why? They confuse temptation with sin. Some people say, "If I were a good Christian, I shouldn't be tempted!" Wrong! Paul wrote extensively in Romans 7 about his internal struggle between the flesh and the spirit. These poems offer a unique way to address the conflict between the heart, soul, mind, and spirit. So, forgive yourself, because Jesus loves you anyway.

      Foreword

      Glenn and I met during a time of great transition in my life. I was pursuing my doctorate degree and I was starting a counseling practice. I wanted my practice to be centrally located in an environment where people would feel comfortable sharing their inner narratives. Moreover, I wanted my practice to focus on Christian values like love, peace, and joy. I am convinced that the Holy Spirit led me to Glenn. He
