Johnson, General Authority Seventy of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, October 2025 General Conference, "The Power of Ministering to the One." See also Running Toward the Light for the amazing story of Elder Johnson, the church's first African-American general authority.
Mitch and Clay were joined by Kyler Hamilton, a University of Utah Institute of Religion teacher and host of the "We Talk Of" podcast aimed at improving gospel teaching in the home. Kyler shares how his own story growing up as one of only few African-American families in Provo, UT aligns with Elder Johnson's experience on his mission, and how we can minister to anyone feeling unimportant, alone, discouraged, or unseen.
This episode touches on faith, family, service, love, race and the priesthood, testimony despite having unanswered questions, and much more!
