The Path is Exciting! with Cristi Brazao

Do you hear the story of the prodigal son and relate a little too much to feeling like there is no way back? What if we thought about the covenant path being something exciting?

Truman Brothers: After Your Faith Comes the Witness

Chad Truman recalls a specific moment on his mission where he had questions—not a faith crisis, just questions. He remembers hearing the words: “After your faith comes the witness.” Truman Brothers now sing songs of faith—songs that make a deliberate effort to represent a real faith journey. On this week’s episode, we discuss music’s ability to testify of Christ while acknowledging that our testimonies rarely grow linearly.

Unnamed Women of the New Testament: Tabitha and the Widows of Joppa

Mother Teresa said, “Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.” Today’s story is about Tabitha, a woman who took Paul’s charge in Acts 6 seriously and served widows who were neglected and marginalized. In this episode, we get to reflect on her story and discover how we, in our own way, can care for those who are unnamed, unwanted, unloved, uncared for, and forgotten.

Divine Identity Creates Unity with Shima Baughman

We’d all like to open our arms wider to include others, understand each other and avoid the divisions we see in the world around us. So how do we look at others who are different from us with, as Elder Soares puts it, “the Savior’s eyes”?

Alma 36–38: Deliver

The story behind Clara McMaster writing the Primary song “Teach Me to Walk in the Light” is a lesson in persistence and faith. And the song we sing now reminds us to ask about what we are teaching and how it is being taught. Alma 36–38 is about what Alma the Younger taught his sons and then asked his sons to teach the people. Whoever you teach this week, remind them to walk in the light of God’s love.

Being Prompted and Guided—Not Overwhelmed—with President Nelson’s 99+1 Invitation

Last month, President Nelson extended an invitation as he reflected his approaching 100th birthday. He shared about the significance of the number 100, and how it was used in the scriptures by the Savior in the parable of the lost sheep. “Though 99 of his flock were safely by his side, the shepherd went in search of the one who was lost.” The invitation then, is to go after the one.

Alma 39-42: Mercy

This week, we’re going to celebrate a little Christmas in August. In Alma 39–42, we hear a familiar chorus from the song “We Wish You a Merry Christmas.” What can we learn about “glad tidings” from Alma’s words to his sons? And how can we lean on this good news when times get hard?

Alma 43–52: Liberty

Moroni called the official meeting in Alma 52 the “council of war.” This week, we’ll dive into those war chapters as we study Alma 43–52. Have you ever wondered how to apply these accounts of war to your daily struggles? We’ll discuss some of the best tactics we can learn and use against the ultimate enemy of our souls.

Start to See the Promised Miracles in Your Life

We’re talking about how to get on an upward spiritual spiral, using an out-of-the-box suggestion from President Nelson—to seek and expect miracles. And sometimes we don’t realize that the miracles working in us are miracles of joy, peace, courage, hope and faith! And this is what we want you to spend a day with us thinking about. You’re invited to Lift Up Your Heart, a Magnify Gathering. And for today's episode, we’ve gathered a few of our speakers from this event.
