Gospel Chats

In John 10, Jesus describes Himself as both the Good Shepherd and The Door. In this episode we chat about both of those titles, how they are two sides of the same coin, and how understanding Jesus as “The Door” can strengthen our faith. 

One of the titles of Jesus Christ is “the rock”, but the scriptures actually describe Him as several different types of rock. In this episode we probe four of the rocks and what they can teach us about His Atonement and how we come unto Him. 

It wouldn’t be hard to think that the church is meant for extroverts, and that introverts need to change, but that would be a huge mistake. In this episode we chat about making space for all personalities and focusing more on Christ-like character as the goal. 

Those who believe in the Restoration of the Gospel boldly claim that God’s Priesthood has been restored to the earth, but are we accessing the power of that priesthood enough? In this episode we chat about relying too little and too much on priesthood blessings, the role of faith, and importance of understanding God’s will. 

The history of the temple garment is fascinating, the promises connected to the garment are breathtaking, and the lack of understanding surrounding this topic is real. In this episode we explore some of the reasons to love and honor the Garment of the Holy Priesthood. 

A choice to ignore the counsel of older people led to the separation of the House of Israel. In this episode we chat about the wisdom that can come with age, the benefits of having mentors with experience, and how we can better bridge spiritual generation gaps. 

Two hundred years of history and thousands of lives were affected by something called “the sin of Jeroboam.” At the heart of that sin was a group of people who chose convenience over consecration. In this episode we explore the consequences and blessings of that choice. 

Belonging is a beautiful thing, but in some ways we were never meant to belong in this fallen world. In this chat we wrestle with the scriptural concept of “pilgrims” and their journey not to belong. 

Inspired teachers do some things before, during, and after class that can make a huge difference. We continue to share a few principles that have profoundly affected our teaching. 

People want to feel inspired and motivated in gospel classrooms, so how do we teach in a way that is real, powerful, and relevant? That’s our wrestle in this episode.
