S2 E22 The Divine Gift (part 2)
Join us for part 2 of our conversation with Gary Little and Ryan Bennett about the Divine Gift of Forgiveness. Learn how to overcome the bullies of fear and pride through uncompromising honesty and embracing our three friends on the path of repentance- Godly sorrow, a broken heart, and a contrite spirit.

S2 E19 The Intersection of the Two Great Commandments
Many returned missionaries feel frustrated that they don't have a chance to minister daily to people like they did on their missions. Actually, they do!
Morgan and Jenny Fife (Bishop, Attorney, Parents, Disciples of Christ) talk about how Christ like ministering can be found at the intersection of the two great commandments. Rather than feeling like a duty or chore, ministering can be a source of great joy for both the minister and the person being served. It's all about developing relationships and loving others as the Savior would. Tune in for great tips on how to take your ministering to the next level!

Customer Reviews
Listening to this podcast is the best way to prepare for a mission
President Patterson was my mission President and is the most amazing teacher! I promise he will help you be ready to teach repentance and baptize converts!
So applicable and inspiring!
Our whole family loves listening to this podcast as part of our family scripture study! Our teenagers have learned a lot, but we have gained a lot as well as parents. This is getting all of us pumped to share the gospel — both now as member missionaries and in the future as full-time young adult and senior missionaries! Can’t thank the wise and relatable hosts enough for their practical applications, the scriptural insights (including especially from The Book of Mormon, “the tool of the gathering”) and for providing such a great resource for our household to tap into the power of “Preach My Gospel.” We look forward to every new episode. Keep them coming!
The best people!
Love this podcast!!
