For far too long in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints many have viewed repentance as a painful and shameful step one must go through in order to become right with God again. But as understanding and learning has taken place there are many who are starting to view repentance as more of a gift than a punishment.  Coach Jill Pack discusses with Heather today how repentance is a gift because it allows us to have a new perspective on a situation, a relationship, and ourselves. It is a gift because it shows the love God has for His children and how He truly wants all of us to see things more as He does so we can have greater understanding when it comes to the trials and difficulties we face in life. This is a podcast of hope and joy, not of pain and shame.
