In this episode of the 'Can You Feel So Now' podcast, host Justin Barton interviews Everett Welling about his unique experiences serving a mission. Everett discusses his journey, from starting his mission in Bogota, Colombia, getting reassigned to Salt Lake City, Utah, and then returning to Bogota. He shares insights on flexibility, the importance of love and high expectations within mission culture, and how he managed unexpected changes and challenges. Everett also reflects on personal revelation, the significance of culture in both missions, and valuable lessons he learned, such as the true meaning of patience and embracing God's will. This conversation offers deep and meaningful perspectives on missionary work, personal growth, and maintaining spiritual motivation.
