Boy, it is frustrating to get interrupted over and over again. I have a feeling Joseph knows exactly what I’m talking about, so let’s dive into D&C 73:3.
In this heartfelt episode, returning guest Karen Papin dives deep into the journey of moving from fear to faith. Drawing from scripture, personal experience, and practical coaching tools, Karen helps us see fear not as a sign of failure, but as an indicator that we’re stepping outside our comfort zone. Together, we explore how gratitude, self-compassion, connection, and divine trust can help us navigate fear and grow in faith.
In my opinion, D&C 71 has one of the coolest verses in all of the Doctrine & Covenants! Why would we want to confound our enemies?

Today we're studying D&C 72:12 in just one minute!
This week we are studying Doctrine and Covenants sections 71-75. In part, we’ll continue some of our discussion from last week, but do a much deeper dive into the concepts of personal responsibility and accountability. We’ll talk about the idea of stewardship, and how each of us have a personal stewardship to improve our lives. We’ll discuss the importance of having another person to be accountable to, which can greatly improve our odds of change. We’ll also talk about four principles of personal responsibility, which if applied, can improve our mental health.
" I think studying a little bit about a hard topic can be more dangerous than studying a lot about a hard topic because there's so much more under the iceberg that can help contextualize what's going on. And so I would definitely say if you're struggling, don't be afraid of the hard questions, but just do it with an approach of faith, hope, and charity. Take a deep breath, make sure you take your time and are doing it in a mindset where you are prepared to tackle these in a rational, reasonable, and faith filled way. But probably more importantly, I ultimately don't think that study and rational thinking is what really keeps people in the church. It really is having a relationship with Jesus Christ. It's those spiritual moments that make us realize that this is true, that this is good, that this is something that is going to bring so much meaning and beauty into my life and this is gonna bring me closer to God than anything else."
