This episode explains why I made the podcast and some of the burdens I see around us that make resilience and hopefulness such a relevant topic. Also, I share why breaking spiritual concepts down into learn-able parts with tools and “how-to” commentary gives us a leg up on our journey to become more like God.

Show notes:

“Brother Widtsoe reaffirmed that ‘those who give themselves with all their might and mind to this [family history] work receive help from the other side. Whoever seeks to help those in the other side receives help in return in all the affairs of life’” (Boyd K. Packer, The Holy Temple, 252). “Remember that the names which will be so difficult to find are of real people to whom you owe your existence in this world and whom you will meet again in the spirit world. … Their hearts are bound to you. Their hope is in your hands. You will have more than your own strength as you choose to labor on to find them” (Henry B. Eyring, “Hearts Bound Together,” April 2005 general conference).
