Overcome the World and Find Rest — A Tribute to President Nelson


Listen Later

Kamden opens her heart about the talk that reshaped her discipleship and ADHD journey: President Russell M. Nelson’s “Overcome the World and Find Rest.” This episode weaves testimony with real-life practice—from a year of 6:30 a.m. live scripture body-doubling (and the burnout that followed) to learning how spiritual rest, self-discipline, and agency can steady a busy brain. With warmth and candor, Kamden reflects on choosing Christ over crowd-pleasing, finding peace at home amid neurodiversity, and letting covenants lift us “above the pull of the world.”

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • Why “take charge of your testimony” mirrors taking ownership of ADHD.

  • How novelty, flexibility, and sustainable rhythms prevent spiritual + nervous-system burnout.

  • A practical STEAR map lens (Situation-Thought-Emotion-Action-Result) for gospel living.

  • The difference between scarcity seeking dopamine and abundance rooted in gratitude.

  • What President Nelson’s joyful example teaches about peace, purpose, and rest in Christ.

    Scriptures & references mentioned:

    Matthew 11:28–30; Mosiah 3:19;

    “Overcome the World and Find Rest.”

    "Smiling Faces and Grateful Hearts"

    "Tune Your Heart to Jesus Christ: The Sacred Gift of Primary Music"
