What if one of the most powerful things you could do this week is simply sit with the Savior?

In this special Miracle Monday Meditation Mantra, John Merrill Kirkman shares a simple yet profound spiritual practice called Sitting with the Savior. Inspired by the teachings of Henry B. Eyring, this guided reflection invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with Jesus Christ in a personal and meaningful way.

Instead of striving to have all the answers, this practice teaches us to rest in Christ's presence, ask sincere questions, and listen for the quiet impressions that follow. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or simply seeking greater peace, this meditation offers a gentle reminder that heaven's windows are always open. Sometimes the next step isn't working harder—it's sitting quietly with the Savior and allowing Him to guide your heart.

Listen daily throughout the week and discover the peace, clarity, and confidence that come from spending intentional time with Jesus Christ.

What if one of the greatest battles you'll ever face is simply remembering who you really are?

In this inspiring Walking With the Savior Daily episode, John Merrill Kirkman shares powerful teachings from Elaine Dalton and reminds us that our identity is not defined by the world, our mistakes, or our circumstances. We are sons and daughters of God with a divine heritage, a royal birthright, and a purpose that was prepared long before we came to earth.

Through a memorable story about the son of a king who refused to compromise his identity, this episode challenges us to stand firm in our faith, resist discouragement, and remember who we truly are. When we see ourselves the way God sees us, everything changes. The world may try to distract, discourage, and define you—but your divine inheritance remains unchanged.

Remember who you are. Remember whose you are. And remember that you were born for something greater.

What if the answer to your struggles was simpler than you think? In this powerful devotional message, John Kirkman reflects on the story of the Israelites and the fiery serpents. Faced with pain and consequences, they were given a surprisingly simple invitation from God: look and live. Yet many missed their healing because the solution seemed too easy.

John draws a direct connection to our lives today. When discouragement, fear, doubt, regret, failure, or sadness begin to weigh us down, we often search everywhere for relief except the one place where true healing can be found. The invitation remains the same: look to Jesus Christ. No matter what you're facing, don't overcomplicate it. Turn your eyes toward the Savior, trust Him, and discover the peace, hope, and healing He offers.

A simple story from a father at a girls' camp delivers a powerful lesson about faith, trust, and listening for God's voice. As his blindfolded daughter navigates an obstacle course, she eventually finds herself confused and off track until she asks the question many of us ask in life's difficult moments: "Dad, are you there?" The answer reminds us of an eternal truth—God never leaves us. Sometimes we simply stop listening. This short but impactful message is a reminder that no matter where you are, Heavenly Father is still there, ready to guide you if you'll turn to Him and listen.

Do you ever feel like your past mistakes have permanently disqualified you from God's love or a meaningful life? Maybe you feel like you have burnt every bridge and there is no hope left for your situation. In this episode of the Walking with the Savior podcast, we sit down with Anjel, a woman who shares her incredible journey from feeling like a modern day woman at the well to finding total restoration and joy.

Anjel opens up about the heavy shame of five failed marriages and the lie that she was too broken to be used by God. Her story is a powerful testament to the fact that Jesus does not come at us with condemnation or snark, but with a love that transforms our deepest hurts into our greatest strengths. We explore her personal but God moment where she surrendered her dating life entirely to the Father, leading to a miraculous and specific answer to prayer that changed everything.

Beyond her personal healing, Anjel discusses her passionate work with Warrior 321, an organization dedicated to anti-human trafficking awareness and education. Her life serves as a beautiful reminder that no matter where you are or what you have done, you are not disqualified. God is a good Father who is always looking for his children to return home, ready to cover them in love regardless of their past.

John Merrill Kirkman shares a thought-provoking message inspired by As a Man Thinketh about the power of our thoughts and the “garden” we cultivate in our minds. Using the analogy of planting seeds, this episode reminds listeners that whatever thoughts we repeatedly allow into our hearts will eventually shape our lives. Through scripture, faith, and practical encouragement, John teaches that we are not powerless victims of circumstance—we are spiritual gardeners choosing what grows inside us. Plant fear, and anxiety grows. Plant truth, gratitude, and faith in Jesus Christ, and a beautiful life begins to flourish.
