” Forgiving is the core of this book. Genevieve addresses a problem of existential urgency because the world in which authentic forgiveness has been forgotten, or even eradicated, is not only a broken world but a dying world.
Basing her analysis on concrete situations, she shows with sensitivity and wisdom that forgiveness, which cannot erase the sin of the offender, heals the wounded person. The refusal to forgive inevitably infects the wound caused by the cruelty and wickedness of the offender. It can soon degenerate into a “sickness unto death.” She makes it clear that the wounded person needs help; and this help comes from God, Who through His grace can soften our hearts of stone, and transform them into hearts of flesh.
This book–written for a very large public–if read with an open heart, will be a powerful help to those who with God’s grace, realise that to forgive is to love oneself with a true love. Whereas the unrepentant forgiven person is still sick, the forgiving one is healed.”
Mulieris Dignitatem
The 25th anniversary edition of Saint John Paul II’s letter, Mulieris Dignitatem is available with commentary by Genevieve. Having previously addressed the Vatican conference dedicated to this Apostolic Letter and having written a series of articles on the richness therein, she was asked by the Daughters of Saint Paul to provide the annotation, which makes this version perfect for group discussions or individual study. Grab a copy, and then consider if the women of your parish might benefit by reading it together. Tolle, Lege.
