In this video, we react to Shiny Happy People Season 2, Episode 2 and explore the Teen Mania Honor Academy—comparing it to Sam’s experience serving a full-time LDS mission in Chile.We share what both programs had in common, from the structure and intense focus on obedience and self-discipline, to the unique ways young adults were shaped by their time in these high-commitment environments. Sam opens up about his time in the LDS Missionary Training Center (MTC) and how it compares to what we see in the Honor Academy.👇 We'd love to hear your thoughts!
