Forgiveness Leads To Improved Physical, Mental And Spiritual Health States Kristi Burchfiel, Author Of 'Piecing Together Forgiveness'

Kristi Burchfiel is a Christian devotional author and speaker who believes in ‘living in the world while living out the word’

In a recent offering on the Inc.com website, an article written by Justin Bariso cited a study that appeared in the Journal of Health Psychology. In that study it was shown that forgiveness - of self and others - reduced the effect of stress, which improved physical and mental health.

Loren Toussaint of Luther College authored the study and, as mentioned in the Inc. article, in an interview in Time Magazine he stated that, ". . . Forgiveness takes that bad connection between stress and mental illness and makes it zero."

In the same article, Karen Swartz, M. D,. of Johns Hopkins Hospital was quoted as saying, "There is an enormous physical burden to being hurt and disappointed."

An article on the Mayo Clinic website entitled "Forgiveness: letting go of grudges and bitterness" mentions a number of health benefits related to forgiveness, among them "lower blood pressure, fewer symptoms of depression, stronger immune system and improved heart health."

Forgiveness, of self and others, can thereby provide real benefits across the physical, the mental and the spiritual arenas. Can the simple act of forgiveness really improve the condition of one's mind, body and soul that much?

Kristi Burchfiel, author of 'Piecing Together Forgiveness: A Study Of Philemon' believes it can do all of this and much more. In her latest book, readers will learn not only the principles of forgiveness, but also how they can be applied to impact one's life and relationships. Readers will find answers and see how to piece together a beautiful picture of Godly forgiveness.

"God created us to be relational; we are meant to be in relationships with other people, friends, loved ones, even God Himself," Burchfiel explains. “Because of this, it’s no surprise that broken relationships that have resulted in grudges and bitterness will have serious physical and mental consequences. Forgiveness, at its core, is about restoring relationships. When we are able to forgive others and to be forgiven, we are taking steps to restore the relationships that God has given us in our lives.” Burchfiel continues, “We need forgiveness to restore our relationship with God first and foremost. Then, as we forgive others, we experience the medical benefits for ourselves, as well as the potential for restored relationships with others.”

Kristi writes applicable Bible Studies. Her other works include ‘Without Regrets: A Study Of Ecclesiastes,’ ‘The Decay Within: A Study of Amos,’ and an ebook series entitled ‘The Daily Devotional Series’, which includes eleven devotionals covering multiple books in the Bible including Genesis, John, Psalm and the New Testament. Several years ago, God led Kristi Burchfiel through some difficult times in her personal life. Only by studying and applying the truths found in the Bible did she find the answers she needed to get her life back on track.  She now works daily to continue putting those truths into practice.  She is passionate about studying the Bible and invites others to share in the peace of God through the truths found in God’s word. As a Christian devotional author, she believes in living in the world while living out the Word.

"Just knowing the word of God is not enough," Burchfiel said, "we must live it out.”

In addition to writing Christian devotionals, Kristi speaks on a variety of different topics including sections from her Bible study books, devotionals, life lessons, personal testimony and the book publishing process. She has been the keynote speaker for women's conferences, led workshops during all day events, and delivered the message in worship services and Sunday School classes. She has also spoken with literacy groups and has appeared numerous times in interviews for websites, radio, and television. She also provides an online devotional for the day and other Bible tools.

Forgiveness For Others Brings Freedom To Self - Kristi Burchfiel, Author Of 'Piecing Together Forgiveness’, Believes Forgiveness Is A Key Step Towards Healing

Kristi Burchfiel is a Christian devotional author and speaker who believes in ‘living in the world while living out the word’

A recent article posted on the NewsOK website, entitled "Forgiveness isn't for the offender', made a very strong point in regards to forgiveness that many sincere Christians may miss. While we might believe forgiveness is for the offender, it is not. It is for the victim. Forgiveness, seen from the proper perspective, frees us from pain and allows us to see others through God's eyes. It allows us to drop the burden of judgment. Kristi Burchfiel, author of 'Piecing Together Forgiveness: A Study Of Philemon', believes forgiveness is one building block that helps form the basis of a direct relationship with God.

“At its very core, forgiveness is about relationships,” Burchfiel explains. “Forgiveness was created by God because when we sinned, we damaged our relationship with God. He created forgiveness as the means through which our relationship with Him can be restored. Forgiveness starts with our relationship with God through Jesus Christ, then moves through to impact every other relationship in our life. Only by addressing our core relationship problem with God will we be able to take that next step toward healing and forgive others.”

In 'Piecing Together Forgiveness: A Study Of Philemon', readers will learn not only the principles of forgiveness, but also how they can be applied to impact one's life and relationships. Readers will find answers and see how to piece together a beautiful picture of Godly forgiveness.

Immigration, Democracy And The Appeal Of Freedom - Author David Palladino Reminds Us Of The Inspirational Value Of Democracy

David Michael Palladino writes inspirational fiction for young readers. His works teach important ideals and values. He utilizes engaging works of fiction to accomplish that goal

Immigration is one of the hottest topics in the news today. The political parties hold radically different views on the subject. A headline on The Week website puts forth the idea that Rubio's presidential dreams were killed by his botched attempt at immigration reform. According to a piece on the Investors Business Daily site, exit polls show two-thirds of Republicans in five states favor a temporary ban on non-citizen Muslims. Senator Jeff Sessions has stated that the US cannot sustain the current levels of immigration. Nearly all the news sites are talking about Donald Trump's infamous wall idea. It seems that everybody wants to come to the US. Why?

We have a good thing. Everybody knows this.

Today people immigrate for many reasons. Prior generations however immigrated to the US for one primary reason - freedom. While today we can all take sides, voice opinions, and argue endlessly about immigration, the one idea we cannot argue about is freedom, for freedom is the most basic of human rights.

Escape from Soviet Communism and the quest for freedom is the theme of 'Quest For Freedom' by David Michael Palladino. Set in the Cold War era, it is the story of the beautiful Romanian, Adriana Corderu, and her quest to obtain freedom by escaping the Iron Curtain.

Palladino produces inspirational fiction for young readers. His works teach important ideals and values. As a former U.S. Army Ranger, former High School Phys-Ed & Health Teacher and Coach, and founder of “Palladino Martial Arts”, he understands the significance of instilling these all-important ideals and values in young people. He utilizes engaging works of fiction as the backdrop to accomplish that goal. This work will be especially appealing to parents, grandparents and educators, and it is pertinent today in light of the world situation.

During the Cold War the world revolved around the conflict between the theologies of communism and democracy. The two main protagonists in this conflict were the United States in the West and the Soviet Union in the East. As Eastern Bloc leaders began to tighten restrictions in the lives of their people, commensurate with their increase in power, there began to emerge, in the East, a group of young people, hard and idealistic, adventurous and courageous. These would become the heroes of the movement of their time. These were the brave young souls who, with inspiration from President Reagan, began to break down the Iron Curtain.

"President Reagan created a brave, tough new nation of patriots in the United States and changed the face of the world," Palladino stated. "This is the story of one of those who was directly affected by the new world perspective of what true freedom should be. It traces this intense time in world history through the adventures of the brave spirit, Adriana Corderu. This story follows this courageous young girl’s odyssey and introduces the fascinating characters who are and who become an integral part of her compelling story."

'Quest for Freedom' has received rave reviews. One reviewer stated, "More native born Americans need to know this story and more importantly appreciate our country as she did." Another said, "The readers become engrossed immediately in Palladino's dynamic effervescent style."

David Palladino is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below or by email at inspirationalbookauthor@yahoo.com. 'Adriana Corderu, Quest for Freedom' is available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Rosedog Books. More information including a sample of the book is available at Palladino's website at http://www.inspirationalbookauthor.com.

Donald Trump Does Not Ask For Forgiveness - Kristi Burchfiel, Author Of 'Piecing Together Forgiveness’, Believes Forgiveness Is Key

Kristi Burchfiel is a Christian devotional author and speaker who believes in ‘living in the world while living out the word’

In a recent article posted on the Business Insider website, a CNN interview was referenced in which Donald Trump stated he does not regret never asking God for forgiveness, as he feels he doesn't have much to apologize for. Kristi Burchfiel, author of 'Piecing Together Forgiveness: A Study Of Philemon', believes forgiveness is a key concept that forms the basis of a direct relationship with God.

“Forgiveness is the key to all relationships,” Burchfiel explains. “Since none of us are perfect, each and every one of us will, at some point, do something wrong to another person or have another person do something wrong to us. Knowing how to respond in those situations gives us the opportunity to rescue and restore those relationships.” Burchfiel continues, “Our relationship with God through Jesus Christ is the most important relationship that we can have and it forms the basis for every other relationship in our lives. Only because of God’s forgiveness of us through His Son Jesus Christ are we able to experience true forgiveness for the wrongs that we have done. When we have been forgiven, then we understand what it means to forgive and ask forgiveness from others.”

Every one of us has either wronged another person or been wronged by someone else. Talking about forgiveness is great, but most people don’t know what forgiveness means or how to do it. What is forgiveness? How do we ask for forgiveness? How do we extend forgiveness to others? What about when people hurt my loved ones? How do I teach others about forgiveness? How do I make forgiveness last?

In 'Piecing Together Forgiveness: A Study Of Philemon', readers will learn not only the principles of forgiveness, but also how they can be applied to impact one's life and relationships. Readers will find answers and see how to piece together a beautiful picture of Godly forgiveness.
