The Divine Gift

Today we invite Mike Crestani onto the podcast as he shares his journey with Jesus Christ. In Chapter 11 of The Divine Gift of Forgiveness it says, "I promise you that no matter the emptiness and unworthiness you feel, our Heavenly Father and His Beloved Son await you. The Atonement of Jesus Christ can lift you from the depths of your current condition." As you listen to this episode, we hope the Holy Ghost will confirm the truthfulness of the above quote and testify to you that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ await you and can lift you from your current condition." Please share this episode with someone who comes to your mind as you listen. Thanks!

Hello listeners! Thank you for your patience in getting our most recent episode published.
