This week, I’m in Doctrine & Covenants 129–132, discussing how blessings from God come through obedience.

I’m in Doctrine and Covenants 124—“A House unto My Name.” I recap the Saints’ move to Nauvoo, why the Lord urgently needed a temple, and how faithful discipleship (taking counsel, staying humble, keeping the Spirit) helps us endure. I talk about being doers of the word, not hearers only; welcoming strangers like the people of Quincy did; and practical ways to serve—yes, including finding refugee and local needs on JustServe.org. I also touch on Nauvoo ordinances, baptisms for the dead, and making temple work part of daily discipleship. At the end, I invite you to pray about one...

In this episode, I dive into Doctrine and Covenants 115–120 and talk about what it really means when the Lord says, “His sacrifice shall be more sacred unto me than his increase.” I share stories from early Church history—like Saints who gave up everything for their faith—and what we can learn from their examples today. I talk about obedience, tithing, staying loyal to the Prophet, and how the Lord sees and honors our efforts, even when we fall. This one is about faith, sacrifice, and choosing to shine on—even when it’s hard.

In D&C 111–114, I talk about how the Lord truly “orders all things for our good,” even when life feels messy or distracting. I share what I learned from Thomas B. Marsh’s story—how quickly we can lose the Spirit through pride or anger, and how repentance brings us back. I also share personal experiences where the Lord provided for me in simple, miraculous ways, reminding me that He’s always aware of us. This episode is about trusting God, keeping the Holy Ghost close, and strengthening our testimonies every single day. Follow me on Substack to receive these podcasts and...

In my first episode, I process the prophet’s passing and recent heartbreak, then share how Alma 12–14, guarding the Spirit, and a call to virtue softened my heart. I discuss why repentance matters, how peace returns, and why I’m finally starting this channel. Here's a link to my Substack account. Click over there to get involved. I don't know what happened from my phone to here - something went wacky. I wasn't using some crazy filter to erase my face. I will work that out for next time. Sorry! If you'd like to read the book I talked about, you can get it here. Shine on!

In this episode, I share lessons from Zion’s Camp in Doctrine and Covenants 103–105 and how they apply to our lives today. We talk about trials of faith, unity, and the need to be spiritually prepared through temple covenants. I also reflect on my own struggles with starting new projects, the importance of sharing the gospel in everyday moments, and Elder Bednar’s reminder to ask: Who’s on the Lord’s side?

In this week’s study of Doctrine & Covenants 102–105 (“After much tribulation cometh the blessings”), I walk through why the first high council was organized and the loving purpose of membership councils, then trace Zion’s Camp and what it taught the Saints—and us—about obedience, timing, and building Zion through righteousness. I share stories like Reddick Allred’s steady faith and 22-year-old Nathan Baldwin’s instant obedience, plus a modern example of following prophetic counsel even when it’s hard. My personal takeaway: I want to be the one who turns west the moment...

In this episode covering Doctrine and Covenants 94–97, I talk about how the Lord gives us patterns—whether in building temples or in building our lives—and how following His plan brings blessings we can’t find in the world’s way of doing things. I share a listener’s touching review about the power of the Book of Mormon, insights on the Lord being in the details, and lessons from Joseph Smith’s insistence on building the Lord’s house His way. We discuss chastening as a sign of God’s love, Hyrum Smith’s eagerness to begin the Lord’s work, and how temples and Zion invite us...

This week I’m diving into Doctrine and Covenants 93—“Receive of His Fulness.” I talk about Elder Renlund’s message on “Infuriating Unfairness” and the importance of being stone-catchers instead of stone-throwers, share some powerful listener stories about following the prophet, and explore how we grow grace by grace, just like the Savior did. We’ll look at what it means to climb the ladder of exaltation one step at a time, how light and truth fill our lives as we keep the commandments, and why setting our own homes in order really matters. I hope this episode reminds you that...
