Seventy Times Seven
On the Spiritual Art of Forgiveness

Seventy Times Seven takes us back to the time of Jesus, when this prophet and teacher first emerged as the embodiment of a generally unknown spiritual principle: forgiveness. When Jesus was asked how many times we must forgive one another, he replied, “Seventy times seven.”

Within this response, Dr. Joan Borysenko shows, is a forgotten truth of profound significance: that only through the forgiveness process can we attain our ultimate spiritual growth. With meditations, historical examples, and bio-spiritual insights, Seventy Times Seven illuminates this overlooked cornerstone of a treasured spiritual practice.
