This is one of the great classics that deals with the healing of the memories. A former missionary and pastor, I met Dr. Seamands when he was Professor of Pastoral Ministries at Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky. I found him to be a man of enormous grace and compassion. Whether through our own fallen temperament, willful disobedience, or as victims of the hurtful actions of others, many of us struggle with crippling emotions, among them perfectionism, depression, and low self-worth. The pain is often present with us even thought the incidents and relationships that caused it may be long past.
