This episode  recounts the powerful true story of Amber’s parents' transition from a life of substance abuse in a hippie commune to finding faith in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It covers their early life filled with drugs and searching for meaning, encounters with pivotal figures that sparked a desire for a better life, and the series of spiritual and personal transformations that led them to a devout Christian life. Their journey showcases the impact of sincere faith, the power of change, and the belief that Christ reaches out to all, regardless of past choices, offering hope and redemption.
