Related Items Violence Peace | Subtitled The Victim's Journey Through the 15 Elements of Serious
Crime, this book is a rare insight into the fragmented world of the
crime victim. The book is written in an easy-to-read conversational
style. It organizes the crime victim detour into stages and elements
that most victims will encounter. Each chapter begins with a family-type
story to gently introduce the theme or the element. This is followed by
a description of the element, the underlying reasons for it (including
academic research), the consequences and then practical helps for
dealing with the element. The book is accessible and applicable for
anyone who has experienced a crime and for those who support them. This book addresses the personal and justice issues encountered after a violent act. Derksen, whose daughter was murdered, writes especially for victims of crime, their friends and family and service providers. Copyright 2003. | |

Cover... Related Items Education Violence | When Wilma and Cliff Derksen's daughter was killed in 1984, they
chose the word "forgiveness," hoping it would somehow spare them the
horrors of the aftermath of violence and the ensnaring justice issues.
But Wilma confesses: "I soon came to resent anyone who said: 'Just
forgive' as if it were that easy." Later she joined a support group of other parents of murdered children where it became obvious that forgiveness was considered an "F" word. Since, she has teamed with Sunday school teachers, pastors, and counselors in the Winnipeg, Manitoba area to explore how storytelling can become a method and the message of moving toward forgiveness of others. In this study guide, Wilma L Derksen, Tym Elias, and Brenda Suderman share a seven- session tested approach on storytelling. This is a vital resource for persons in classes, study groups, and congregations who wish to take steps toward forgiveness. Copyright 2005 Herald Press. | |
