Hugh B. Brown served as an apostle, and later, as a member of the First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

It's Time to Give the Doubters in the Church a Break

We need those who doubt, those who stumble, those who make big mistakes, those who are lonely, afraid, imperfect, and broken in the Church. Because, let's face it, at times that is each one of us. And without all of those people in the Church, we simply wouldn't belong and our faith couldn't be strengthened--together.
