Summary

Today we're joined by June Hunt, author, singer, and founder of Hope for the Heart, a worldwide biblical counseling ministry. June shares her story of salvation, from growing up learning that her father had three concurrent families to learning to forgive him for his abuse and hostility. She shares how impressed she was with authentic Christians and how that helped lead to her salvation. We discuss June's wrestling with the idea of forgiveness – is forgiving someone just letting them off the hook?
