Literally life-changing. Scripture makes it clear that we are to forgive, but I was having a hard time figuring out what forgiveness actually looked like in a practical sense. Keller pulls together all of Scripture's talk of forgiveness and presents it in a brilliant exegesis that blew me away. His exposition of the parable of the unforgiving servant alone was worth the price of this book for me and the example of Corrie ten Boom drove me to tears (then all over again when my pastor retold it some months after I finished this book).
There are several appendices at the end that give practical tools for the actual procedure of forgiveness and reconciliation. These were also very useful to me and offer an applicable "how-to" for everything discussed in the book. This is a truly wonderful piece of work to add to the shelf of any Christian.
