At the age of 47, April woke up in the early morning hours to make breakfast for her family and collapsed on the floor. The right side of her brain was pounding and the left side of her body couldn't move. She was having a stroke. April's husband Craig was home that morning which rarely ever happened. Craig usually left to work early in the morning. He immediately directed the kids to call 911 and keep April comforted. 5 days in the hospital and time for her body and brain to heal taught April so much. Having this stroke has brought her closer to Heavenly Father, her family and the Savior. Join me today as she shares her story and how much sweeter life is after this unexpected moment. April’s email address: [email protected]

"Satan does not have a body, and his eternal progress has been halted. Just as water flowing in a riverbed is stopped by a dam, so the adversary’s eternal progress is thwarted because he does not have a physical body. Because of his rebellion, Lucifer has denied himself all of the mortal blessings and experiences made possible through a tabernacle of flesh and bones. He cannot learn the lessons that only an embodied spirit can learn. He cannot marry or enjoy the blessings of procreation and family life. He cannot abide the reality of a literal and universal resurrection of all mankind. One of the potent scriptural meanings of the word damned is illustrated in his inability to continue developing and becoming like our Heavenly Father.

Because a physical body is so central to the Father’s plan of happiness and our spiritual development, we should not be surprised that Lucifer seeks to frustrate our progression by tempting us to use our bodies improperly. One of the ultimate ironies of eternity is that the adversary, who is miserable precisely because he has no physical body, invites and entices us to share in his misery through the improper use of our bodies. The very tool he does not have and cannot use is thus the primary target of his attempts to lure us to physical and spiritual destruction.” - David A Bednar, Things As They Really Are.

Our bodies are so incredible. We are so blessed to have a body and experience earth life. Join me today as I share some thoughts about our bodies and how satan tries to get us to misuse these amazing gifts.

“A child’s death forever changes, a family and those who love them. The experience of grief is lifelong – it does not go away after a certain amount of time. Yes it softens, but always there is a place in your heart and your soul that yearns for that child.”

“A woman bears the strength to handle, betrayal, poverty, and often even abuse, however, the only time she feels she has lost all strength is when she hast to handle and accept the loss of her child.”

Truth & the Plan by Dallin H Oaks

“We live in a time of greatly expanded and disseminated information. But not all of this information is true. We need to be cautious as we seek truth and choose sources for that search. We should not consider secular prominence or authority as qualified sources of truth. We should be cautious about relying on information or advice offered by entertainment stars, prominent athletes, or anonymous internet sources. Expertise in one field should not be taken as expertise on truth in other subjects.

We should also be cautious about the motivation of the one who provides information.”

This is a WINTER RE-RELEASE podcast. This is one of many of my favorite podcast interviews. JR is such a gifted man who loves the Lord and shares his passion on this interview. Early in the year, I interviewed my son Carter about serving a mission and experiencing the death of his companion Zane Lamping who passed away at the Johannesburg South Africa MTC in November 2018. My friend shared with me a portrait that she saw online and sent me the link. It was of Zane Lamping. I was so touched emotionally by the beauty of this piece of art that I decided to reach out to JR Johansen who painted a picture of Zane and many other missionaries who have died while serving a mission. JR inspired me with his faith, testimony and humility. Join me today as he shares this amazing gift that blesses and transforms families lives and JR's too.  

JR has a book titled, These Angels Among Us that has JR's portraits of many of the missionaries that he has created.

This is a WINTER RE-RELEASE podcast. Years ago, I learned while listening to S Michael Cox all about the 4th watch. I began looking in the scriptures and my life of evidence that this was true. An eye opening experience was learning about the 4th watch. I witness this truth over and over again in my life and my children's life. Join me as I re-release this podcast from early 2021.

Mark 6: 45 “And straightway he constrained his disciples to get into the ship, and to go to the other side before unto Bethsaida, while he sent away the people. 46 And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray. 47 And when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone on the land. 48 And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them: and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, and would have passed by them. 49 But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out: 50 For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.”
