On today's episode of Virtuous Roots, we talk about the value of repentance and why it's important in the home. Last week we talked about forgiveness and as a follow-up from that, repentance is a necessity in the family. Truly repenting and turning away from the wrongs we have committed is an integral part of the home.

Today, Nick, Thomas, and Thomas will talk about the process of forgiveness and showing how to forgive those who have wronged us. The process can be difficult at times, but with prayer and seeking God's guidance, we can find that forgiveness. Along with that, how do we show our children how to properly forgive each other, friends, and even their parents.
