Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This story will make you look at things differently!
I approached this book speculating on what I would have done if I was placed in Simon's situation. After reading Karl's testimony numerous times and the sentiments expressed in the Symposium, I pondered the question days later. The reader doesn't necessarily have to make a decision, but this book offers an array of opinions which enables even further rumination. Truly a Wonerful and powerful read!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - On the subject of forgiveness
This book really gave me insight into the issue of forgiveness. Can one person forgive in the name of thousands who were offended?
