How to Turn Fear and Anger to Forgiveness and Grace

Listen in as Brooks Douglass, former Oklahoma state senator, businessman, producer and actor shares how when we forgive someone else, we’re blessed with forgiveness ourselves.

 

His journey of grasping life with forgiveness and grace while he slowly healed from a senseless crime is intriguing and powerful.

Douglass, whose parents were shot to death by intruders, worked to strengthen Oklahoma's victims-rights laws, including the measure that allowed murder victims' families to witness executions.
