The concept of Zion is something that a lot of God’s children have chased after over the last several thousand years. It order for it to really work, there is one word that has to be involved...and it might not be what you think.
This week on Walk with Him, Michelle Craig joined me to talk about Elder Renlund’s general conference talk from April 2025!
This week we are studying Doctrine and Covenants sections 58-59. We’ll talk about how blessings come based on obedience, but usually after there is some tribulation and trial. We’ll review how the idea that we can skip the difficulty in life through good choices is not accurate; most all of our growth comes from our challenges. We’ll discuss the value of moral agency, and how not only do we have the power to overcome our trials, but we have the responsibility to do this as well. We’ll also talk about the role of gratitude in improving our mental health.There are free worksheets available for the invitations made in the weekly podcasts. To get these worksheets, please sign up for my email newsletter. Not only will you get access to the free worksheets, but access to many more free strategies to help manage your mental health.

"This is what those athletes are missing, they are missing peace. They're missing hope and they're missing security. I have never been more confident in my life. In sports, we put on this facade that we're the best and we have so much confidence and it is so shallow. You do one thing and boom, our confidence is tanked. And so my invitation to those athletes would be, if you want to be more confident than you've ever been, if you want to have peace, you wanna have hope, you wanna have true belonging, if you wanna be blessed both temporally and spiritually...follow God and let him be the author and finisher of your story. And I know that as I continue to trust in him, my life's gonna lead to places much, much better than what I could have done myself."
