Simply Three: Music—A Key to Expression Nov 09, 2022

Show notes

With nearly 1.5 million subscribers on YouTube, Simply Three is a string trio known for inventive arrangements of popular music. But they're not just experts at finding unity in sound: one of the three musicians isn't a Latter-day Saint, so when the group set out to record an album of hymns, they approached the project in a beautiful and harmonious way. On this week's episode, the three musicians share the love they have for music and the beliefs that informed their modern approach to sacred songs as well as why they believe music is a gift when it comes to vulnerability and expression. 1:25- All-State Orchestra Friends

Matt Whitaker: A Man on a Mission to Tell 1 Teenage Boy's Story Nov 02, 2022

Show notes

Helmuth Hubener's story is a true tale that reads like a Hollywood movie and that is what Matt Whitaker has been trying to make for over 20 years—a movie about Helmuth's life. Helmuth was a 16-year-old boy who, after gaining access to British radio channels, became convinced that he had to do something—anything—to stop Adolf Hitler. As the secretary for his local Latter-day Saint congregation he began typing flyers on a church typewriter in hopes of helping others see what he saw in the Nazi regime. On this week's episode, we talk with Matt Whitaker about what Helmuth's story can teach us more than 80 years later and why he is so determined to share it.

"I think that it ties back to the Savior and that premortal connection...and gratitude that we feel for that person who said, 'Send me I'll do it,' and so that idea of self-sacrifice—the ultimate self-sacrifice—I think resonates and echoes throughout humanity."

Jenedy Paige: The Power of a Personal Relationship with God Oct 26, 2022

Show notes

Jenedy Paige knows a thing or two about strength. For one, she's competed on American Ninja Warrior—a feat she never thought she could accomplish but that she believes God led her to. But she also knows that strength comes from having a personal relationship with God during challenging times, like when her son died due to a drowning accident, and during beautiful times like when she is alone in her art studio during the early morning hours of the day. What has grounded her through it all? On this week's episode, Jenedy shares a guarantee that she relies on that gives her strength—she calls it PJs.

Eric Weddle: From Retirement to Super Bowl in Six Weeks Oct 19, 2022

Show notes

It was a call Eric Weddle never would've anticipated when he hung up his jersey for what he thought was the last time two years earlier. But the Los Angeles Rams were in desperate need of a safety and asked if Weddle would don the jersey for one last run. Weddle certainly didn't feel he was NFL Playoff ready, but he was in good physical shape and has never been one to pass up an opportunity. So with the encouragement of his wife and kids, Weddle left his carpool duties as a father for a time and set out on an unlikely quest to win a Super Bowl. When the Super Bowl was over, he happily returned to the carpool. 1:51- An Ending Made For A Movie

And it can bring us down but if you just try your best, your best is all that is needed."

Kathryn Davis: Parenting and Teaching Teenagers Oct 05, 2022

Magnify Podcast- https://www.magnifythegood.com/podcast

President M. Russell Ballard quote- "Gone are the days when a student asked an honest question and a teacher responded, 'Don't worry about it!' Gone are the days when a student raised a sincere concern and a teacher bore his or her testimony as a response intended to avoid the issue. Gone are the days when students were protected from people who attacked the Church. Fortunately, the Lord provided this timely and timeless counsel to you teachers: 'And as all have not faith, seek ye diligently and teach one another words of wisdom; yea, seek ye out of the best books words of wisdom; seek learning, even by study and also by faith.'"

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland quote- "And if those children are unresponsive, maybe you can't teach them yet, but you can love them. And if you love them today, maybe you can teach them tomorrow."

Justin and Kristi Osmond: The Gift of Being Deaf and the Gift of Hearing

For the first two years of his life, Justin Osmond was totally unable to hear the music that made his dad and uncles famous. Born with 90 percent hearing loss, the son of Merrill Osmond initially resented his inability to hear but it has become something he has embraced and something his wife, Kristi, loves because it has made him who he is. After 12 years of intense speech and listening therapy, Justin is able to give voice to a community rarely heard from on a podcast. On this week's episode, we talk with Justin and Kristi about how it's by leaning into our challenges that we become who we were meant to be.

"My lack of physical hearing has helped me to rely more on my spiritual ears so that I can hear Him more."

"We have way more rainbows than we have rain."

Shima Baughman: What's More Powerful Than Public Policy? Sep 07, 2022

Show notes

Shima Baughman has worked for years to bring about policy reform, especially as it relates to incarceration. After immigrating to the United States from Iran as a child, Shima has become an attorney, a national expert on bail and pretrial prediction, and a professor of criminal law at the University of Utah. But while she is a believer in giving second chances through law, on this week's episode she explains the most powerful type of reform isn't only through the justice system. Instead, she believes change truly occurs as people turn their hearts to Christ.

"Changing policy is temporary, but changing a creature or a human is lasting and that's only done through Jesus Christ."
