Lita and Kevin Giddins: Christ and His People Will Ever Be One Jun 08, 2022

Show notes

As teenagers, both Lita and Kevin were drawn to the restored gospel because of the arts. Both former BYU Young Ambassadors, Lita and Kevin believe representation in the arts is just one way we gather Israel. Later this month, Lita and Kevin will combine their love for the arts and their desire for all to be gathered in with a special event in the Conference Center Theater—an event to help Christ and His People to ever be one.

Elder Maxwell quote- "'These are [your] day' (Hel. 7:9) in the history of the Church. Mark well what kind of days they will be, days when, with special visibility, the Lord will 'make bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations.' (D&C 133:3.) God will also 'hasten' His work. (D&C 88:73.) He will also 'shorten' the last days 'for the elect's sake'; hence, there will be a compression of events. (Matt. 24:22; JS—M 1:20.) Furthermore, 'all things shall be in commotion.' (D&C 88:91.) Only those in the process of becoming the men and women of Christ will be able to keep their spiritual balance."

Carine Clark: Celebrating Cancer May 25, 2022

Show notes

At 48 years of age, Carine Clark was given a 20 percent chance of surviving ovarian cancer. But Carine wasn't ready to be done—she didn't know it, but she had yet to become one of the first female chief executives of a Utah tech company and would later be named "Utah Business" magazine's CEO of the Year. What Carine did know is that she had two sons that she really wanted to raise after she struggled with infertility for years. So Carine gave cancer everything she had to give—and she's still here. On this week's episode, Carine explains why her cancer diagnosis is worth celebrating with her family each year, and how her faith has played an integral role in her journey. 2:28- Celebrating the Day of Diagnosis

Kent and Kathryn Colton: 'The Temple' in Washington, DC. May 11, 2022

Show notes

In March, an architectural historian wrote on Twitter, "Is there a building in the US whose siting and form better address the speed and experience of interstate highways than the Washington D.C. Temple? The way it is revealed, perfectly centered, after cresting a hill is really genius move." The building is so beloved that the area's evening news simply calls it "the Temple." For years, the inspiring structure has meant so much to so many—including those who have never been able to go inside. But for the next month, they can. On this week's episode, we talk with the co-chairs of the Washington D.C. Temple Open House.

Steve Young: An Introduction to the Law of Love May 04, 2022

Show notes

A football field is not usually considered a place of love. But it was during his time playing for the NFL that Steve Young began to explore what he now calls the law of love. He realized that relationships based on the expectation of receiving something in return eventually rot, but when we bring long-suffering, gentleness, meekness, and love unfeigned to our relationships—that's when the magic happens.

Show notes

When Kacey McCallister lost his legs as a little boy, his parents wanted to be there for him in every way. But the doctors had some advice for the McCallisters that at first might seem unfair—to let Kacey do everything on his own. But this advice, and his parents' diligence in following it, changed Kacey's life and now there's very little he can't do.

Ed and Wanda Willis: From Black Panthers to Latter-day Saints Apr 13, 2022

Show notes

Ed Willis's life began in a place literally called "The Lower Bottom." Drugs, Alcohol, Prostitution—you name it, and it could be found in the lower bottom. Ed was always searching for something. It was this searching that led him to become a Black Panther. Ultimately, Ed can now see that the dignity he was seeking all along could be found in understanding that he is a child of God. On this week's episode, Ed and his wife, Wanda, share how their membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints changed their lives.

"No matter what people might think of me, I'm on my way to purity, because that's the way God wants it. He wants me back, just like He wants everybody else back."

Dave and Julie Grygla: Accepting What God Is Willing To Give Apr 06, 2022

Show notes

Dave and Julie had six kids in three years: triplets, twins, and a baby boy. As parents, this couple's journey has been filled with joys and triumphs—many of which they struggle to remember in the blur of it all—as well as tears and feelings of inadequacy. But as their triplets turn eight and are baptized, the couple reflects on one of their greatest learning moments: that of true submission to what God is willing to give.

"God does not care about my identity as a former runner, as a former professor, or any of those things. The identity that He cares most about is, Am I a follower of Jesus Christ? Do I take care of my fellow man?"
