About 1 in 6 adults will have depression at some time in their life. Alisa Pierce is one of those people. Growing up in a comfortable home by the beach, she never struggled with mental illness and was content with her life; however, just days into her mission in Paraguay and Argentina, Alisa realized that the mission was not like the glorified stories of miraculous baptisms that she had heard. She found herself in some of the darkest moments of her life while serving a mission. In this episode, Alisa shares her struggle to apply the Atonement of Jesus Christ to her life, and how it has been a process of pain, healing, and hope.
