This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe connects Jeremiah's ancient prophecies with the incredible work of the Restoration happening today. From the warnings of prophetic watchmen to the promises of a changed heart, Jeremiah reminds us that following Jesus Christ isn't just about keeping commandments it's about becoming someone who wants to keep them.

In this episode, you'll learn:

📖 How Jeremiah's story connects with Lehi, the brass plates, and the Book of Mormon and why his prophecies still matter today

📣 Why prophets are called watchmen and how their General Conference messages can help us recognize warnings and invitations meant specifically for us

❤️ What it means to have God's law written on our hearts—and how moving from "I have to" to "I want to" can transform our relationship with Jesus Christ

God doesn't just want His commandments written in scripture. He wants them written so deeply on our hearts that they become part of who we are. And when we fall short? His promise of forgiveness reminds us that we can always turn back to Him.

200 EPISODES, BABY! 🎉🥳 This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe celebrates 200 episodes and dives into the book of Jeremiah to explore foreordination, agency, and the incredible potential God sees in each of us. Because being chosen for something great doesn't mean the journey will be easy or that we don't have a choice!

In this episode, you'll learn:

🌟 What it means to be foreordained rather than predestined and why your agency matters in fulfilling God's plan for you.

📜 How Jeremiah's calling reminds us that God knows our potential, even when we feel inadequate, and why your patriarchal blessing can help you discover your personal mission.

⛈️ Why the gospel isn't an umbrella that keeps life's storms away, but a solid foundation that helps us stand strong through them

So here's your challenge: Pull out your patriarchal blessing. Study it. Pray about it. Then ask yourself, "Am I choosing the path that will help me become who God knows I can be?"

And as we celebrate 200 episodes, we'd love to hear from you! What has Go & Do meant to you, and would you join us for another round? 💙

Go & Do Challenge

We've made it! 🎉 After weeks of studying Isaiah, what have you learned? Have you started to see yourself, your relationship with Jesus Christ, and the incredible things happening in the world a little differently?

This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe wraps up our journey through Isaiah with two powerful reminders: the Lord is hastening His work, and His prophets are warning us for a reason. As we prepare for the Second Coming, Isaiah's words are more relevant than ever!

In this episode, you'll learn:

🌟 Why Isaiah's invitation to "arise, shine" is especially important today as the gathering of Israel moves forward throughout the world

⚠️ How Isaiah's warnings connect with messages from General Conference and why listening to prophetic counsel helps us recognize spiritual dangers

❤️ What Isaiah 59 teaches about the consequences of turning away from God and how we can choose a different path

🌎 Why the Lord is hastening His work and how we can become people who bring comfort, hope, and light to a world that desperately needs Jesus Christ

So as we close the book of Isaiah, here's your challenge: Go back to General Conference. Identify the warnings and invitations from our living prophets. Then choose one area of your life to strengthen over the next six months.

Go and Do Challenge

• Identify the warnings from Conference
• Pick 1 area in your life to strengthen over the next 6 months

❤️ How Isaiah 53 can transform the way we understand the Savior’s suffering, sacrifice, and personal love for each of us
🕊️ Why trusting Jesus Christ ultimately leads to peace and why seeing ourselves in the scriptures can change the way we choose to live

This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe discovers the incredible music inspired by Isaiah’s words and explores how these ancient prophecies can bring comfort, strength, and hope as we prepare for General Conference.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

🎼 How Isaiah 40 inspired some of the most recognizable songs in Handel’s Messiah and what they teach us about preparing for the Savior

💪 Why the words of Isaiah 41 inspired the beloved hymn How Firm a Foundation and remind us that we never have to face life's challenges alone

🔥 How the Lord uses our trials to refine us and why General Conference can provide the answers, encouragement, and spiritual renewal we need

As General Conference approaches, will you make time to listen for the Lord's voice? Will you seek answers to your questions, find strength in sacred music, and spend time in the temple? This week, turn up the music, open your scriptures, and prepare your heart to hear Him! 💙

This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe heads into week two of Isaiah to uncover a powerful contrast: Satan wants us to believe he has more power than he actually does, while Jesus Christ offers us something completely different power, refuge, and rest.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
📖 How using the footnotes can unlock Isaiah and why they should become part of the way you study all scripture
⚡ What Isaiah 14 teaches about Satan's actual power and why following him gives away something Christ wants us to keep
🛡️ How Jesus Christ becomes our strength and refuge when life feels overwhelming, difficult, or completely out of our control
❤️ Why Isaiah's promise of eventual rest can give us hope while we're still navigating the hard parts of mortality

Satan's strategy depends partly on convincing us that he's more powerful than he really is. But he cannot simply take away our agency, our covenants, or the power available to us through Jesus Christ. So when life feels like you're staring down a double black diamond, remember you don't have to navigate it alone.

Go & Do Challenge

• Use the footnotes
• Take back your power
• Find rest/refuge in Christ

This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe begins the journey through Isaiah by looking at how the Savior Himself feels about Isaiah’s words and exploring one powerful pattern hidden in just three verses: come, learn, walk, become.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
🔎 Why Jesus Christ specifically commands us to search the words of Isaiah diligently and how approaching Isaiah as the voice of the Savior can change the way we study
⛰️ How Isaiah 2 connects the “mountain of the Lord’s house” with the temple and the gathering of people from throughout the world
👣 Why coming to Christ and learning His ways isn’t enough we’re invited to actually walk in His paths and allow Him to change us
🕊️ What beating “swords into plowshares” can teach us about putting down our own modern-day weapons and becoming people of peace

Isaiah’s prophecy isn’t ultimately just about millions of people coming to a place. It’s about what happens inside us when we come to Christ, learn from Him, and choose to walk differently because of what He has taught us.

Go & Do Challenge

• Search Isaiah’s words with me, at least for the next few weeks
• Come, learn, walk and day by day become

This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe digs into Proverbs and the difference between knowledge, understanding, and wisdom. These short teachings aren’t just ancient fortune-cookie sayings they’re invitations to learn eternal truth, understand why it matters, and then actually go and do something with it.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
🧠 The difference between knowledge, understanding, and wisdom and why knowing something isn't the same as living it
📖 How Proverbs 3 connects surprisingly well with the For the Strength of Youth guide and its pattern of eternal truths, invitations, and promised blessings
💎 Why Proverbs compares wisdom and a virtuous woman to precious rubies and what that teaches about the kind of character God values
❤️ Why your worth isn't something you earn through perfect obedience. It is constant, God-given, and far more precious than anything the world can put a price tag on

So this week, find your proverb—a truth you can internalize and actually live. Gather the knowledge. Seek to understand the why. Then use wisdom to put it into action. Because you aren't called to just know the gospel. You're called to live it. And never forget...you’re worth far more than rubies. 💎❤️

Go & Do Challenge

• Find a proverb to internalize/live by
• Focus on Knowledge (gathering eternal facts), Understanding (get the why) and Wisdom (apply it).

This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe wraps up the book of Psalms by looking at something that gets louder and louder as the book comes to a close: praise. After chapters filled with fear, grief, mistakes, repentance, miracles, and deliverance, Psalms doesn't end because life suddenly becomes easy. It ends with an invitation to praise the Lord anyway.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
🙌 Why praising the Lord is more than singing and how actively putting God at the center of our lives brings hope and happiness
❤️ What it really means when the scriptures say the Lord “loveth the righteous,” and why our sincere efforts to follow Him matter
🎵 How Primary songs, hymns, and other music of faith can become spiritual “power ballads” that bring peace when life feels upside down

So what’s your power Primary song? What song brings you back to Christ when life feels chaotic, discouraging, or upside down? Find it. Sing it. Share it. And this week, look for more ways to praise the Lord not because everything in life is perfect, but because He is worthy of our praise. 🎶💙

Go & Do Challenge

• Praise the Lord more so He can bless you 
• Pick a power Primary song – share it

This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe continues exploring the Psalms and the incredible power of music to connect us with memories, testimony, and God. From songs tied to missionary experiences and family memories to the music that carried her through cancer treatments, Candis looks at what the Psalms teach us about crying out to God and trusting that He really does hear us.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
🎵 What Psalm 66 teaches about praising God during both the joyful and incredibly difficult chapters of our lives
🙏 Why trials can prove and refine us and how remembering the times God has already brought us through can strengthen our trust in Him
❤️ How Psalms 77 and 86 invite us to remember God’s works, talk about what He has done, and pass our songs of faith on to others
🎧 Why the soundtrack of your life might say more about your testimony than you realize and how your music can become part of the spiritual legacy you leave behind

So, what’s your song? What music reminds you that God has heard your prayers? What songs are you sharing with the people you love? And what would you sing if the Savior were standing right in front of you? This week, build your soundtrack, remember what God has done for you, and share your testimony even if you have to sing it. Because when you cry out to Him, He hears your song. 🎶❤️

Go & Do Challenge

• Create the soundtrack of your life
• Determine the song you’d sing when you see the Savior
• Share your testimony of truths through song
