In a new video released Thursday by the Church, Elder Peter M. Johnson tells a story of being chased by a gang in Queens, New York, as a young boy. In the video, young Peter runs into an auditorium and is suddenly on a stage facing himself—now a grown man, Elder Johnson is a General Authority Seventy who is currently serving as president of the Manchester England Mission. Elder Johnson walks viewers through his growing-up years, which included the divorce of his parents and his own involvement in a gang, before explaining that it was his coming to know Jesus Christ that allowed him to see what he was capable of becoming.
