The Forgiveness Factor: stories of hope in a world of conflict

“Michael Henderson will make you stop and think about possibilities—for peace in our world, our communities, and our own souls. In his captivating style, he writes about miracles small and large that raise hope that the longing of all human beings to give and receive forgiveness and understanding might someday be fulfilled.” – Marian Wright Edelman, President of The Children’s Defence Fund, USA

“The Forgiveness Factor lifts the spirits. It is a record of how the inspired sanity of policy and the attendant physical reconstruction of nations have come through forgiveness.” – K. E. Beazley, Sr. 32 years in the Australian Parliament

“With Mountain House, Caux, marking its 50th anniversary, Henderson draws on many experiences of the Swiss conference center for Moral Re-Armament, a network of people working for change and reconciliation. Whether in striving for democracy in Russia or healing racial divisions in the U.S., these stories of individuals, known and unknown, are of lasting value.” – Charles E. Bennett, 41 years in the U.S. House of Representatives
