Why is forgiveness a challenge? Dr. Jason Whiting examines how conflict, fault-finding, and differences–even among the early Saints–are not new challenges. Through the lens of the Doctrine and Covenants and human nature, he explores the transformative power of forgiveness and how it builds unity in families, communities, and the Church.
