Nathan Pacheco: Consecrating Our Talents

Nathan Pacheco was a senior at Brigham Young University when he heard Elder Jeffrey R. Holland make a statement that gave him the courage to pursue a career in music. He has since learned that sometimes dreams come true quickly and other times a bit more gradually.

Cameron Smith was just a college student when he happened upon a job listing for a little-known pancake company called Kodiak Cakes.

Recognized as the company’s “secret weapon” who helped get Kodiak Cakes on the shelves of retailers like Target and Costco, Cameron shares how great outcomes have come from simply asking the right questions. And more importantly, he marvels at how through it all, the Lord has been able to make more out of his life than he ever could have dreamed of.
