  • God Does Impossible Math (D&C 77-80)

    🎙️ Welcome back to another mini-episode of Two E's in a Pod!

    We're keeping things honest, real, and rooted in the scriptures — just Ellis and Eddie diving into the kinds of questions young adults are actually asking and how the gospel meets us there.

    This week, we're in Doctrine & Covenants 77–80, and we're talking about everything from faith and finances to stewardship, purpose, and Christlike welfare. What does it mean to be wealthy in God's eyes? Why does the Lord care about your job search, major, or bank account? And how do you follow revelation when every path seems uncertain?

  • Direction Doesn't Always Mean Details (D&C 77-80) - with Katie Young

    This episode explores the power of asking sincere questions and trusting that God will answer. In Doctrine and Covenants 77–80, Joseph Smith models what it means to seek revelation with faith — and how the Lord responds with love, guidance, and trust.

    Come study these scriptures with young adult Kennedy Casto, our hosts Ellis and Eddie, and Katie Young, a teacher at the Tempe Institute of Religion at ASU. Together, they reflect on how questions lead to revelation, what it means to live a consecrated life, and how God's "It mattereth not" moments are really invitations to choose with confidence, knowing He's walking with us.

  • Two E's in a Pod (Section 76)

    🎙️ Welcome to the very first mini-episode of Two E's in a Pod!

    This week, Ellis and Eddie dive into Doctrine & Covenants 76 — The Vision received by Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon in 1832. This revelation didn't just expand our view of heaven — it reshaped our understanding of God's love, mercy, and the eternal potential of every soul.

    Along the way, we talk about how to catch the Lord's vision for your life, what it really means to seek revelation, and how Christ is always at the center of the plan — even when life gets hard.

We talk about spiritual seasons, why the Lord sometimes doesn't give specifics, and how He still shows up with promises, power, and peace. We also dig into what stewardship really means, how consecration sanctifies what we offer, and why God cares more about faithfulness than flawless results.
