- Have you ever struggled with forgiving others or forgiving yourself? Do you ever doubt if you can truly be forgiven? Join Hank, John, and Brother S. Michael Wilcox as they delve into Doctrine and Covenants 64 and discuss forgiveness. What did the Lord have to say about forgiveness and mercy to the early saints?

I could listen to S. Michael Wilcox all day - the way he articulates his thoughts is simply breathtaking. I hope he is invited back again. Thankyou for this wonderful podcast
So grateful for your podcast, Hank and John. Dr. Wilcox was mesmerizing! SOOOOO enjoyed him.
I simply do not have the words to convey what the Spirit has taught me through listening to Bro Wilcox. Thank you Hank and John for putting this podcast together, how blessed we are to have each other and the gospel of Jesus Christ in our lives!!
Celebrate the good and forgive everything else. Love this.
This was amazing! Such a beautiful experience to hear S Michael Wilcox teach the gospel of Jesus Christ. As he would teach I would watch Hank and John’s faces. I believe that I saw there testimonies grow along with mine. This has been an experience that I will not soon forget.
Wow! What an amazing episode this week. Thank you
Every week I say to myself, " okay THAT one was my favorite" 👏👏Thank you for all the goodness that you put out every week ❤
I think the same thing each week, this is my favorite! It truest was GOOD to be here. ♥️👏👏
I was thinking the same!
This was very beautiful and I’m grateful for everything I learned listening ❤️
Wow! 😮 Best episode ever! I am now girl fanning over Dr Wilcox too! 😂 I am grateful for all the insight and testimony in these two episodes. It is definitely good for us to be here!!
This is unforgettable! Truly wonderful to feel the power of goodness and forgiveness. Thank you for this.
Wow. That was so powerful. Thank you Hank and John, and especially Brother Wilcox. I will literally never forget this conversation.
Just wow! Third time through and have saved this episode for listening over and over. So much in these words. I KNOW the gospel is GOOD!!
I grew up in the Russian Orthodox Church in Finland and these comments were of great interest to me. As a child, especially the great Easter celebrations remain a a joyful memory . I think I will read the Brothers Karamazov again ! Thank you, Brother Wilcox!
Even off the cuff, S Michael Wilcox is GREAT!!!
I absolutely love these two episodes with Brother Wilcox…. please please invite him again.
My heart is full. Thank you, Brother Wilcox for your global view of the goodness on this earth. My vision has been expanding to include other religions who are contributing our purposes to bring forth Zion. I am now expanding it even further to poets, playwrights, musicians, and all those who have brought good to this earth. Thank you for your insights and examples. Thank you for all the good you are doing for the world. Drop by drop. Thank you, John and Hank for having this most beautiful forum and introducing me to the wonderful Latter-day scholars and teachers in the church. It is inspiring and eye-opening. May God bless you all!
My heart is full, thank you, brother Wilcox.
Our family loves this good man so much. My brother really struggled in High School, Bro Wilcox was his seminary teacher. My mom still credits him with saving my brother. (Its been like 45 years). I had him for Institute at the U of U many years later and he still remembered us. If you talk to him, tell him the Elsberrys (Elsberries, lol?) still love him to the moon.
I had him as a teacher at the U Institute too! He's always fantastic!
I was going through a hard time and can't remember exactly what was taught (and man, do I wish I could remember). I just remember he was (is) brilliant!
Last year I watched and searched for his talks si that I could listen to him.
Incredible! What beautiful insights and depth of feeling came through these podcasts. I remember finding a world religions book BYU put out for their religions of the world class and feeling similar things, of how good and how gracious God has been to urge all people everywhere to become better. This has prepared their hearts and minds for today when the gospel can be received all over the world. Let us never undermine or belittle the inspired people from all faiths throughout history who sacrificed and were persecuted to bring more good into the world.
Can’t describe what those two podcasts with Brother Wilcox mean to me. Thank you.
I love listening to Bro Wilcox! He was my seminary teacher in Cardston, Alberta.
I read Dostoevsky, Turgenev, Tolstoy and Solzhenitsyn in my British grammar school. I loved these writers then. I’m sure their wisdom was mostly lost on the teenage me. Listening to Michael read this makes me want to read them all again.
Thanks Dr Wilcox what are great insights.
Soul-expanding. What a blessing to learn at the feet of great instructors. Thank you.
I've been listening to all of the episode's that you guys have put together. I'm ALWAYS edified! Your testimonies, personalities, and knowledge comes together beautifully! Every guest has given unique perspectives! I loved Dr. Wilcox's definition of "the fullness of times" and all the good that has come out of every time/place/language/mode of expression which becomes part of the "fullness" of our times. I have lived in Moscow and Cairo and I appreciate Dr. Wilcox's emphasis on the good that can be found in Islam and the Russian Orthodox church and other religions. I'm a huge fan of Dostoyevsky, "the Russian prophet." Thank you for highlighting his testimony of Jesus in the discussion! The epitath inscribed on Dostoyevsky's tombstone is John 12:24 ..."Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit." Thank you for sharing his fruit (somehow tasted like sweet and memorable onions!)
It is good for us to be here
OK so this is my new favorite! Thanks so much!
It was all "good". Thank you ❤️
These podcasts are my favorite of all the wonderful online resources. I learn, I rejoice and mostly, I feel love from God through the teachings and love for God and His Son because of how I'm learning of their mercy.
Even if our house is not clean or prepared . Be willing to let the Lord in and welcome him
I so appreciate the reference to Alyosha and The Brothers Karamazov. The finest piece of Russian literature ever produced. Dostoevsky was definitely influenced by the Spirit and was a very prophetic writer. Many of his works warned of creeping Marxism, but his truly powerful ideas were those focused on Christ.
So so so good!! Wish my adult children would take the time to listen to this because it is 'eternal' life changing!! Thank you!
This was so powerful. Brother Wilcox thank you for Your testimony on goodness, it was incredible and so inspiring. Thank you Brothers Smith and Bytheway for bringing such powerful goodness to us.💝
I listen and love your weekly podcasts! The fill my soul, heart, and feed my mind. I loved Dr Wilcox’s remarks I took some notes that will help change my heart. Thanks so much to both of you for your time and effort as well as your wonderful guests in bringing us closer to Christ.
All through this brilliant episode I've been trying to remember why the name of S Michael Wilcox is so familiar to me...finally I realised when his book Fire in the Bones was mentioned 😁 I read that book 3 years ago, it was fantastic!! I've always loved the Tudor period, and to have that part of it illuminated so...so, 'feelingly'...excitingly, was wonderful. Thank you for that, and thank you for yet another wonderful, wonderful episode. I am learning so much 😊
I love brother Wilcox testimony; thank you so much for sharing this!
Wow, amazing, just amazing.
So amazing, enlightening, uplifting and inspiring!!!
beautiful
I adore The Brothers Karamazov.
Thank you! What an uplifting and spiritual experience to listen. Love Bro Wilcox’s perspective. Would love to hear more from him!
I love the reference to C.S. Lewis, who wrote for young readers. Our extended family is reading "The Chronicles of Narnia" on ZOOM.
This was so beautiful! It put voice to my thoughts!! There is no end to goodness!! It's massive!! Oh i believe this!! So up lifting and beautiful!!
Wonderful. I've stopped saying I know the church is true- what does that phrase even really mean? I believe the church is good and encourages me to be good. It's members are trying to be good and do good in the world around them. I'm so grateful for the mercy and forgiveness of my Saviour and my Heavenly Father. Thank you.
THANK YOU Brother Wilcox.
If I could imagine the feelings of reverence, awe, wonder, joy and love of being in the presence of our Father in Heaven and His Son, I feel listening to Brother Wilcox is a small taste of that much anticipated experience. Partaking of his profound insights, wisdom, and humble spirit is like an appetizer to the “Great Wedding Feast” to come! I’m very moved and filled with gratitude for this good man. ❤️ Thank you Brother Wilcox!!
Re. Michael Wilcox and the "gift of religion" at 44:34. I agree there are charismatic figures in history. But those who have the ability to convey religion to others on a high level do have this "gift of religion". Joseph Smith Jr. was one of those people.
I would love to watch the unedited version of this podcast :) is there anyway we can do that?
Thank you for your feedback/request. We will discuss that option with the team.
Is there a transcript available for this podcast? I would love to have one. This was very moving and Good!
Yes - at followhim.co :)
I love listening to Michael Wilcox and have read/listened to almost all his books and tapes. I will give him the benefit of the doubt, but I don't get why he brought in Buddha and Mohamad and equating their works with Joseph's works with the restoration of the gospel. I agree that God speaks to all nations, but are they really on the same level?
I follow this podcast because I enjoy listening to John and Hank but it seems like they are always overshadowed by their guests who seem to take over the discussion. I wish the two of them would talk more.
Yes, especially on this podcast it was more of a lecture. I appreciate the thoughts and insights of Hank and John also. I find it more interesting to hear a discussion that includes all of them much more interesting.
@@alethajolley3925 Thank you for your feedback. We love getting feedback! Yes, there are different dynamics with every guest. We also get feedback saying Hank and John talk too much, ha ha, but we do our best to follow the flow and Spirit on each podcast. If you want more of an interactive discussion, you will love this next weeks' podcast with Brad Wilcox! Hank, John and Brad are long-time friends and we can't wait to share the podcast on Friday!
