Paxton & John, Raising Special Sons—Ronald A. Rasband, "He Is Risen"
06/07/2026 S7E6, Episode #239, Elder Ronald A. Rasband of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, April 2026 General Conference talk, "He Is Risen."
Mitch and Clay were joined by Kristen Hoffman, a recent convert and mother of three boys, one of whom, John, was born with a condition so rare, only 2 other known cases exist in the world! Though limited, John's 9-year-life touched many people. When Elder Rasband posted on Instagram about his grandson Paxton's similar struggles and short mortal experience, Kristen and Elder Rasband shared a brief, but touching digital interaction. We invited Kristen to tell us more about John and her conversion story.
This episode touches on Jesus, true friendship, teaching the gospel by who you are more than what you say, raising children with developmental challenges, resurrection, Joseph Smith's teaching on what'll happen after this life for young children who pass away prematurely, faith, and much more!
General Conference Applied is dedicated to helping fellow ordinary Latter-day Saints become "Doers of the Word" by taking action on inspired invitations to become more like Christ. Since 2023, we've been a resource for you and are excited for more goodness to come. Follow along and please share with others! We love you! - Clay and Mitch
