Desiree is a powerful force for good in this episode. She doesn't mince words when sharing about her ups and downs as a disciple of Jesus Christ. She is quick to admit both her mistakes and the power that God has brought to her life to overcome those mistakes. 

That is what the Atonement is. And she testifies of this so powerfully. 

She was able to stop relying on others' testimonies and be firmly rooted in her own, and most importantly in Christ. She stopped thinking she had to "arrive" at her faith and has learned to embrace the ever changing journey that is conversion.
