Summary

We all have someone we need to forgive. But sometimes it's hard to let go of our hurt and anger in order to truly forgive and move on. For the Amish, forgiving others is woven into the very fabric of their faith. From daily annoyances to heartbreaking tragedy, they exhibit an incredible capacity for forgiveness that often baffles us
