Do memories of your past haunt you? Is there help for people who suffer because of their own past? Most people who suffer from bad memories want them to disappear. Some want to deny the problem and just forget the past. Robert D. Jones shows that God provides a solution to the haunting problem of nagging bad memories. What is God s answer?

If you belong to Jesus, God has something better for you, Jones writes. God does not want to remove your memories; he wants to transform them into something good. Your memories of past sins even the worst ones can be opportunities for life-changing growth. You do not need to avoid, run from, or get rid of your past. Jones points out that painful thoughts may still intrude, but you need not escape them. God is bigger than your past.

Redeeming Bad Memories

ByJennifer Koon April 16, 2014

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Everything I have read from the Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation has been on point and this little booklet does not disappoint either. I love that it is short and to the point.

The first thing you ought to know is that this comes from a Christian counseling world view. It is based on Biblical principles (nouthetic counseling). If you are not a Christian who holds scripture as good for all things that pertain to life and godliness, you may not enjoy this, though I believe you will benefit from it.

Second, it does focus primarily on redeeming memories of past sin as one reviewer said. While there are a few references to victimization in this booklet, I would careful in applying the Truths to victims. I am currently studying how to counsel people who have undergone trauma, so I had to do some tweaking as I read. If that is what you are seeking, some of the Biblical principles won't be a one-to-one correlation. However some of the basic Truths still apply. I have yet to find a valid source specifically dealing with trauma victims. With the necessary care and discernment in application, this is the closest I've found. After this I plan on doing a search of CCEF resources ([...]). If I don't find anything there... look for my book! ;)

Good but misleading

ByAmazon Customeron April 5, 2014

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I bought this book thinking it dealt with past memories of abuse. It only deals with past sins you commit and the memory of them. So it was completely unhelpful for who I was looking to give it to. I will keep it though if I am working with someone who struggles with guilt.

Mostly a spiritual book

It's mainly about spirituality and looking to God for strength. Well written and worth a look.
