How to Forgive the Unforgivable
(Part 1)
Watch Allie Beth Stuckey interview June Hunt. 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? June shares her definition of forgiveness and why it’s so important to release our right to be apologized to. Stay tuned for part two tomorrow!
Is 'Emotional Abuse' Cause for Divorce?
(Part 2)

June explains that God did not create us to be abused and it’s not healthy for people to get way with wrongdoing. We also talk about the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation and share the first step toward forgiveness. Stay tuned until the end, when June treats us to a song!
