"I just got back from visiting Joshua and he loves each one of you guys very much," a tearful Anna shared with the group. "[He] is just really grateful for a family that's willing to talk straight and to grieve when you've fallen, but also to love and forgive and have hope."
Anna's message from her husband brought a number of his younger sisters to tears. She also spoke candidly about the scandals their family has weathered in recent months and how her faith has given her the determination to move forward, sharing "God's grace can give me the strength to love Josh when others would say he doesn't deserve it."
