What if remembering someone’s name is one of the simplest ways to help them feel truly seen?

In this episode of This Is Kingdom: A Good News Brand Podcast, Grace, Talon, TJ, and Hollis begin with an emotional farewell to Kit, a beloved studio team member, who shares advice about “value mapping” and aligning life decisions with the things that matter most. They then discuss Elder Clement M. Matswagothata’s talk He Knows You by Name, exploring how God personally knows and values each of His children.

Through personal stories from Walmart, Chick-fil-A, and mission experiences, they reflect on the power of names and the impact of making others feel recognized. The conversation highlights how small acts of attention and kindness can mirror the way Christ loves and sees each person.

This week’s challenge is to learn one new person’s name every day. Whether it’s a friend, coworker, neighbor, or stranger, taking the time to remember someone can help them feel the love and care that God has for them.
