Making Peace with Yourself
15 Steps to Spiritual Healing

By Kathryn James Hermes, FSP

“Today’s society is full of people who, just like me, long to make peace with themselves. They find themselves in all sorts of situations: unexpected illnesses, financial struggles, personal vulnerability and failure, boredom, and struggles with faith. These situations are complex and unpredictable. In mysterious ways they cause people to plumb the depths of the human spirit, searching for peace. Sometimes these situations even seem unredeemable…This book explores the stories of people like you and me, people faced with situations that often were irreparable, people who need to make peace with themselves”
— Kathryn James Hermes, FSP

Making Peace withYourself is an essential guide to the deepest reality at work in the world and in our lives: the presence of God in the midst of life’s confusion. As we begin to live in the realm of that reality, things may begin to look different—something may even fall into place. Life doesn’t become easy. We aren’t spared disaster. But we can give ourselves to this reality with complete assurance that our best interests are always at the heart of God’s designs.

Poignant and touching real-life narratives offer hope and direction. Poetry, prayer, and Scripture passages provide a solid base for further reflection and contemplation.

Perfect for anyone striving to cope with life’s hardships and traumas. Also leads friends and families toward understanding.
