First published in 1964, The Dynamics of Forgiveness is the product of a parish and of theological study in the context of a parish. Written by a pastor, it attempts to give enough evidence to establish the place of forgiveness in theological thought, parish life, and personal health. The experiences presented have been subjected to investigation by tested procedures. The author states that he is not a church historian, a systematic theologian, or an authority on human behavior. However, he wished to raise questions for those that are experts in these disciplines and hoped that this book would raise a response.
This book is a re-issue originally published in 1964. The language used is a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.
