'Forgiveness is at the heart of the Christian faith. It is at the heart of God's relationship to human beings, and at the heart of being human together. Anthony Priddis explores forgiveness in warm, practical and deeply moving ways. This is a book to ponder, a book to challenge, a book to change us if we listen to God's deep call to live a life directed towards forgiveness.' -- Justin Welby
