Planking Through Prayer—Turning Habits into Record-Breaking Miracles: DonnaJean Wilde's Story - Latter-Day Lights


Listen Later

What happens when years of faith-formed grit turn minutes of daily discipline into record-breaking triumphs?

This week on Latter-day Lights, Scott and Alisha welcome Guinness World Record holder, book worm, and Gospel-loving Latter-Day Saint—DonnaJean Wilde—to the show, whose once broken wrist and five-minute planking challenge sparked a decade-long journey of fitness fueled by scripture study and mindset training. 

More than just a story, she unpacks the habits and “living toolboxes” that moved her from classroom to the world stage: Memorizing the Success Scrolls and inspirational quotes from The Book of Mormon, cultivating an unwavering work ethic of keeping promises, training to uplifting spiritual music, and many more valuable practices that turned seconds into minutes—and minutes into history.

Along the way, she shares the tender mercies that steadied her, the thought-transforming books that turned doubt into devotion, and the hard-won lessons that readied her for the Guinness World Records.

Stay tuned and be prepared to live like DonnaJean, inspired to build on one Christ-centered promise today until forever.
