Growing up with a passion for drama, my perspective shifted towards eternal goals as I looked toward finding joy amidst life's challenges. I share the importance of connecting with Heavenly Father through temple attendance, studying the words of church leaders, and practicing faith as an action. Come listen as I discuss how following the living prophets, prayer, and loving others are essential elements of a true disciple's life. I encourage you to maintain a strong connection with God and to love and accept others where they are on their spiritual journeys.
