Doug's Story: Finding Forgiveness, Recognizing Thoughts as Lies

WATCH CLIP (10-min)\xa0 YouTube\xa0 |\xa0 BitChute\xa0 |\xa0 Doug fills-in for JLP \u2014 he's been with BOND about 25 years. He forgave his mother, which was life-changing, but has gone through a lot since. When Jesse asked him to lead the Church service, his first thought was, "NO! What am I gonna talk about?" He asks the people what the thoughts tell them in anticipation of an event that's big in their minds.\xa0
