Our Walk and Our Talk

In this episode, we discuss President Dieter F. Uchtdorf’s “Encounter at the Empty Tomb” and what the Resurrection of Jesus Christ means for our lives today. We explore how we can develop our own witness of the risen Savior, make discipleship our highest priority, and then share that witness with others. We also discuss how Christ’s power can help us overcome the doubts, fears, and challenges we face.
