In this special Christmas episode, Jenny and Lee explore the beautiful connection between Christ’s first coming and His promised second coming. They reflect on what it meant for ancient disciples to wait with hope and anticipation, and what those same patterns teach us about preparing our hearts today.

Together they discuss the peace Christ offers — external, internal, and eternal — and how the Lord gently prepares His people long before the miracle arrives. With scripture, storytelling, and heartfelt testimony, this episode invites you to see Christmas not only as a celebration of His birth, but as a personal call to draw closer to the Savior who always keeps His promises.

In this Thanksgiving episode, Jenny and Lee explore gratitude through an unexpected lens: how living in gratitude prepares us for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

They dive deep into the distinction between being grateful in our circumstances rather than for them, drawing on insights from scripture, Elder Uchtdorf, President Nelson, and decades of their own lived experience. Together they discuss holy vs. hard seasons, how gratitude strengthens our relationship with the Savior, and why expressing gratitude daily becomes a spiritual tool—not a toxic demand.

Filled with warmth, testimony, science, and humor, this episode is an invitation to walk with Christ today, not someday.

In this important conversation, therapist Katie Ball discusses the significant lies that affect mental health, emphasizing the importance of faith and the Atonement of Jesus Christ as a solution.

She outlines practical strategies for overcoming feelings of worthlessness, helplessness, and hopelessness, and differentiating between guilt and shame. 

Within our preparation for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, which has been prophesied to be a great and dreadful day, Katie helps us all understand the reality of how fear and faith can co-exist in the same person at the same time- and why that isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

In this candid and spirit-filled conversation, Jenny and Lee explore the law of the fast—why it matters, why it’s hard, and how it prepares us to meet our Savior.

With honesty and humor, they share personal experiences, scriptural insights from Isaiah 58 and Doctrine & Covenants 59, and counsel from prophets ancient and modern.

Together they are reminded that fasting isn’t about deprivation—it’s an invitation to draw nearer to Christ through discipline, humility, and joyful sacrifice.

Whether fasting is your favorite spiritual practice or your most challenging one, this episode will encourage you to see it not as “starving with a prayer,” but as a sacred opportunity to strengthen your discipleship, increase your power, and open the heavens in your life.

Change is one of life’s most constant companions—and one of its greatest teachers.

Through the refining process of trials, growth, and transformation, we discover how these experiences shape our hearts to reflect His love, grace, and image more fully.
