105. Bonus Episode: Relief Society General Presidency on "Belonging"

Life has taught Kristin Yee how to “jump”: to leave her comfort zone and leap into the unknown, trusting in God’s love and perfect plan. Following a spiritual prompting to leave art school in San Francisco, Kristin's journey of faith took her down an unexpected path-- one that ultimately led to her dream job working as an animator and producer for Disney for 13 years. By sharing the personal revelation she has received and trusted, Kristin teaches listeners "what faith looks like." Through these exciting, and at times frightening, life changes and transitions, Kristin shares with humility and grace how she has learned to partner with the Savior, Jesus Christ for support, comfort, and validation. Kristin was hired by the Church in 2016 as the animation team manager, and she currently serves on the Primary general advisory council.  Resources: Kristin Yee biography: https://www.thechurchnews.com/callings/2021-07-15/9-new-members-of-primary-general-advisory-council-218844 “Educate Your Desires, Elder Andersen Counsels”: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/prophets-and-apostles/unto-all-the-world/educate-your-desires-elder-andersen-counsels?lang=eng Alma 32: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/scriptures/bofm/alma/32?lang=eng Church Content for Children: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/media/collection/children?lang=eng Examples of recent Children's content: The Goal: A Story of Faith, Friendship and Forgiveness https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/media/video/2019-12-0110-the-goal-a-story-of-faith-friendship-and-forgiveness?lang=eng The Old Testament Scripture Stories https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/media/collection/old-testament-stories?lang=eng&collectionId=b43d757eb019f6607ea99cf31d4f98fd0466720b Friend to Friend Broadcast https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/media/collection/friend-to-friend-children?lang=eng&collectionId=b43d757eb019f6607ea99cf31d4f98fd0466720b Transcript: https://media.ldscdn.org/pdf/2021-03-0104-104-kristin-yee-what-faith-looks-like-eng.pdf
