  • E85: Five Questions for Teachers: Self-Evaluation that Centers on Christ, Connection, and Clarity

    Kevin and Julie dive into five soul-stretching questions every gospel teacher can use to reflect on their effectiveness. Rooted in "Teaching in the Savior’s Way," these questions explore whether learners can feel a teacher’s love for the Savior, recognize their personal spiritual habits, and recall stories that deepen faith.

    Through honest conversation and personal experiences—both humbling and humorous—they model what it means to teach with authenticity, vulnerability, and purpose. This episode reminds us that impactful teaching starts with who we are, not just what we say.

  • E83: Beyond the Sound Bite: Teaching Hard Truths with Love and Depth

    Julie and Kevin dive into one of the most challenging parts of teaching the gospel — responding to emotionally charged, sound bite questions about love, inclusion, and Church doctrine. With honesty, vulnerability, and humor, they unpack what it means to answer with both clarity and compassion. Through personal stories, tough conversations, and real examples, they explore how to navigate topics like temple exclusion, same-sex attraction, and perceived inequality in a way that honors both truth and the lived experiences of others. This episode is a thoughtful guide on how to move past defensiveness, ask better questions, and build understanding — not just for others, but within ourselves. It's a call to teach deeper, love better, and think more intentionally about how we share the restored gospel in a complex world.

  • E82: Building Your Mini Zion: Turning Hearts and Minds Toward Unity

    Julie and Kevin explore what it really means to build Zion — not in some distant future, but here and now in our homes, classrooms, and relationships. Drawing from scripture, personal struggles, and heartfelt stories, they illuminate how unity starts within us and expands to those around us. They discuss the messy, human side of this process — battling judgment, discomfort, and resistance — and show how small choices made with a Zion mindset can transform a family, a ward, or a community. It’s a powerful reminder that we don't need to wait for a perfect world; we can start creating Zion today.

  • E81: The Confidence Shift: Rethinking Success and Happiness

    Kevin and Julie take a deep dive into what it really means to be a confident gospel teacher. Inspired by insights from The Happiness Equation, they challenge the conventional model of “success leads to happiness” and introduce a more gospel-centered approach: that happiness—rooted in gratitude, perspective, and love—fuels meaningful work and lasting success. They explore a powerful four-quadrant model that maps confidence, insecurity, arrogance, and hopelessness, encouraging listeners to examine their attitudes toward themselves and others. With humor, honesty, and heartfelt stories, Kevin and Julie show how moving from comparison to connection—and from self-focus to Christlike service—can transform not just how we teach, but who we become in the process.

  • E80: Teaching from the Pulpit: Turning Sacrament Meeting Talks into Spirit-Filled Testimonies

    Drawing from personal experiences, both humorous and heartfelt, they share practical tips and guiding principles for preparing and delivering spirit-filled talks. From avoiding overused clichés to focusing talks on Christ, they emphasize authenticity, preparation, and spiritual intention.

  • E79: Teaching Through Doing: Turning Administrative Callings into Spiritual Experiences

    Julie and Kevin explore what it means to teach without a classroom—how even the most administrative callings can become sacred opportunities to lead others to Christ.

    Through heartfelt stories and practical insights, they highlight how roles like building scheduler, technology specialist, or primary pianist can be transformed into spiritual experiences when approached with intention and love. This episode invites listeners to reimagine “non-teaching” callings as powerful platforms for ministry, reminding us that every assignment in the Lord’s work is a chance to teach by doing and testify through example.

  • E78: Becoming a Master Inviter for Gospel Gathering

    Julie and Kevin dive into what it means to be a “master inviter” in gospel settings.

  • E77: Love First: Building Christlike Classrooms That Embrace Everyone

    Kevin and Julie explore the transformative power of love in gospel teaching. Drawing from personal experiences, scripture, and Church teaching materials, they introduce the idea of creating a "love bubble"—a classroom environment where everyone walks away feeling deeply loved by God, by their teacher, and by each other. They reflect on how genuine expressions of love can shift the purpose of a lesson from content delivery to soul-deep connection. Through vulnerable stories, practical suggestions, and thoughtful dialogue, they challenge listeners to prepare spiritually, reframe classroom goals, and cultivate Christlike love—even for those who are hard to love.

Drawing from personal experience and Stephen Covey’s insights, they introduce the idea of creating a personal mission statement to guide teaching efforts. They discuss how common distractions—like content, fear, or approval—can shift our focus, and how a Christ-centered mission realigns our purpose. With practical questions and examples, they invite listeners to reflect, refocus, and teach with greater intention and connection.
