Another episode and another amazing guest! Today we welcome Kaden Hunsaker to share his experience with President Holland's talk "As a Little Child".

Kaden served a full-time mission in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, from 2020 to 2022. He’s currently studying Civil Engineering at BYU and works as a Spanish teacher at the Missionary Training Center. When he’s not in class or at work, you’ll likely find him hiking a mountain trail, fishing, paddling a kayak, or playing a competitive game of pickleball. He’s a sucker for a good country song and treasures any time he gets to spend with family and friends.

"As I put my relationship with God first I find that I am able to better connect with others".
