Understanding Forgiveness and Repentance

Forgiveness and repentance are central themes discussed in the podcast episode. President Boyd K. Packer's interpretation of Alma 36:12, describing the pain of sin, is contrasted with the relief of forgetting sins in verse 19. This distinction highlights that true repentance brings not just forgiveness but also a release from the emotional burden of past sins, leading to joy and peace.
