Remember that thing you just can't get over? Betrayal, tragedy, rejection—we've all experienced loss and injustice on a magnitude God never designed us for. Now that we've faced it, we're older, wiser . . . and rightly on guard against this fallen world. Or are we? Could it be that our cranky moods and critical words aren't just momentary lapses but evidence of a fatal poison creeping into our spiritual root system? Bitterness—the word no one wants to say—has taken hold. <br><br>From her own experience getting free, Tracey Bickle honestly walks us through recognizing and overcoming the bitterness lurking within and its resulting chaos. Offenses will come; will they ruin us or will we emerge tender, victorious, and joyful? How should we treat those who have sinned against us, and how can we be healed from the pain of heart injuries? Join Tracey and discover the wise counsel of God to free us from the chaos of bitterness and release us into peace.
