Stand with Lynnette

Do you ever have questions or doubts surrounding the Church? Do you want to learn how to navigate doubt while strengthening your faith?

Or do you sometimes feel like doubt surrounding the Church is celebrated, especially on social media?

If you answered yes to any of those questions (or know someone wrestling with questions or doubts), this is the episode for you.

In my early twenties, I went through a faith crisis that rocked me to my core. One simple thought, accompanied by an overwhelming abundance of the Spirit, changed everything for me. It sustains my faith to this day, and I am going to share it with you.

We will also talk about how to brighten our faith and overcome the mountains in our lives through the power of Jesus Christ.

When I was young, I thought the song "Follow the Prophet" was the worst Primary song ever. It was long and repetitive, and I got bored with it. But now, I cling to the words: "Follow the prophet – Don't go astray. Follow the prophet – he knows the way."

Within the past year or two, there has been a flood of hate directed at the prophet and other Church leaders for various reasons. Most of it has come from within the Church. And, truthfully, that breaks my heart.

In this episode, we dive deep into why the Lord has given us prophets and how they can lead us to safety if we choose to follow.

Now, more than ever, the world needs light. And, as covenant women, we are light. We have a divine charge from the Savior himself to "Arise and Shine Forth" amid the growing darkness of these latter days. But, to do that, we must stand firm and faithful amid the intensifying storm. Only then will we be able to lead ourselves, our families, and others to the safety of the Savior's embrace.

If you are a Latter-day Saint woman who desires to strengthen your faith and shine brighter than ever, you are in the right place. Come, stand with me.
