Jesus calls us to forgive – but what does forgiveness look like in the worst of times and when the rubber meets the road? Forgiveness is hard and life can be heartbreaking. In October 1986, Miriam Murphy’s life and the lives of her family would forever be changed by the brutal and unnecessary murder of her father-in-law. What followed was a decade-long journey through grief, confusion, anger and encountering God-given miracles through an astonishing act of forgiveness. Much healing was found, but the journey wasn’t over. There was more upheaval in store for Miriam, a shocking revelation, a battle with her mental health, and more than 20 years of roaming in the spiritual wilderness before being rescued by a loving Shepherd, who left the 99 to call His lost sheep back to the fold. The true story of the offer of forgiveness, and a lifelong call to forgive. A brave and awe-inspiring account of a family’s face-to-face encounter with the most unimaginable horror and their journey towards redemption and forgiveness. It is also a testimony of God’s faithfulness that will both encourage and speak powerfully into the lives of all who read it. – Rev Jinny Kean
