Anchor Point 2 - Holland - "FROM MUD TO MIRACLES"

In this episode, we anchor ourselves in Elder Jeffrey R. Holland’s powerful talk “And Now I See” and the miraculous moment when the Savior healed a blind man using something as simple—and unexpected—as spit and mud. Why mud? Why spit? Because Jesus Christ didn’t need the element to be powerful. His voice was the power. This anchor point reminds us that God can use any element, any circumstance, and any person to bring about His miracles. Nothing is too small, too broken, or too ordinary when ...

Anchor Point 1 - Holland "CHOOSE LOVE FIRST"

In this Anchor Point, we turn to Elder Jeffrey R. Holland’s powerful message, “And Now I See,” and the story of the man born blind. When the miracle unfolds, the Pharisees ask a familiar and revealing question: “Who did sin—this man, or his parents?” Rather than rejoicing in healing, they look for someone to blame. Together, we explore how easily this same pattern shows up in our own lives—how quickly judgment can become our first response toward others… and even toward ourselves. We discuss ...

Episode 57 - Anchored - Hannah Parker When I Finally Stopped Running

Hannah had plans — a career in animal care, a mission at nineteen, a future that made sense. But when heartbreak hit and faith began to fracture, she walked away from everything she once believed. Church. God. Hope. What followed were years of questions, anger, and silence. She searched for peace in every direction except the one she’d left behind. Still, something — or Someone — kept reaching for her through the noise. A song. A verse. A memory she couldn’t quite shake. Six years later...

Episode 56 - Anchored - Sierra Larson - Christmas Found in Christ’s Light

She lived between two worlds—inside the church, and outside it—never fully belonging to either. A life shaped by constant moves, Navy travels, and family shifts, Sierra Larson navigated ADHD, loneliness, and choices that left her questioning where she truly fit. But a single moment, a quiet prompting, and a mission stripped of distractions would change everything. Alone with the Savior, she discovered a relationship she never thought possible—a connection that defied logic and transformed her...

Anchor Point 3 - Soares "STAND UNWAVERING"

In this Anchor Point, we reflect on Elder Ulisses Soares' powerful invitation to stand unwavering in our discipleship of Jesus Christ. He teaches that true discipleship requires honest self-examination—looking inward and asking how firmly we are actually standing, especially when discipleship feels stretching or uncomfortable. Elder Soares reminds us that no one can assist in the Lord’s work unless they are humble, full of love, filled with faith, hope, and charity, and temperate in all thing...

Anchor Point 2 - Soares "ANCHORED IN HIS GRACE"

In this second Anchor Point, Elder Ulisses Soares teaches a powerful and reassuring truth: as we strive to change our behavior, we must do so with faith and humility, staying firmly anchored in the grace of Jesus Christ. True discipleship isn’t about earning our salvation through effort alone. It’s about allowing the Savior’s grace to strengthen us as we seek to become better, repent daily, and align our lives with Him. When we rely on His grace, we can become instruments in His holy hands,...

Anchor Point 1 - Soares "EXTRAORDINARY FOUNDATIONS"

This week, Elder Ulisses Soares teaches that temperance is a foundational anchor point in our discipleship of Jesus Christ. He invites us to take extraordinary measures to ensure our foundation is strong, stable, and capable of withstanding the pressures of our day. In this Anchor Point, we pause to honestly examine our own foundation. Where might there be gaps or weaknesses? What habits, influences, or distractions may be quietly eroding our spiritual stability? Elder Soares reminds us t...

Episode 55 - Anchored - Shiree Best

She built her life on faith—steady, unshakable, sure. But when the winds came, everything she thought she understood about safety, family, and God began to splinter. Children who once prayed beside her slipped into silence. Two faced divorces that cracked her heart wide open. One made choices that sent her searching the heavens for answers she couldn’t find. And when the storm refused to break, Shiree found herself wondering if she’d been forgotten by the very God she had spent her life...

Anchor Points 2 - Dennis "TRUST THE LORD

In Anchor Points #2 of our series on Sister Dennis’s talk, we dive into the powerful role of questions in our discipleship and what the Lord invites us to do when answers don’t come right away. Sister Dennis shares the very human experience of wondering, wrestling, and seeking—and how essential it is to stay rooted in trust when heaven feels quiet. Recently, President Oaks visited our own home ward and offered a simple but transformative three-word sermon: “Trust the Lord.” These words echo ...

Anchor Points 1 - Dennis "YOUR CHALLENGES ARE SEEN AND COUNTED

One of the most comforting truths we can hold onto is that the Lord measures our efforts and progress according to our own degree of difficulty. He isn’t comparing you to anyone else. Your journey, your trials, and your pace are unique—and He takes them all into account. When we realize this, we can experience a profound sense of peace. We don’t have to beat ourselves up for where we are, and we don’t have to measure our worth against someone else’s milestones. Our Savior sees our personal e...

Episode 54 - Anchored - Garrett Sweat

He spent six years behind bars—haunted by loss, chained by addiction, and certain that God had stopped listening. But sometimes, the places we think are meant to break us become the very ground where redemption begins. In a world where hope felt like a cruel joke, Garrett found himself face-to-face with grace in the most unlikely of places: a prison cell. What started as rebellion and ruin became a slow, sacred awakening—an unraveling of pain, pride, and disbelief until all that remained was ...

Anchor Points 3 - Eyring "STRONG ENOUGH TO CARRY ETERNAL LIFE

In President Eyring’s words, the greater burden the Lord is preparing us to carry is eternal life itself. That blessing is not light, casual, or comfortable. It requires a soul that has been strengthened, stretched, refined, and transformed until we are able to stand in His presence—and feel at home there. Most of us instinctively cling to what feels safe. We like our routines, our familiar thoughts, and the comfort zones we’ve built. But a covenant relationship with God means something dee...

Anchor Points 2 - Eyring "YOUR TRUE NATURE IS REVEALED

In this Anchor Point, we go deep into President Eyring’s powerful imagery—“the steel is proven.” Just like steel is tested through heat, pressure, and weight, our discipleship is also proven through the refining experiences of everyday life. We explore: 🔥 The Heat — those moments that feel overwhelming, uncomfortable, or stretching. The trials that burn away the unnecessary and reveal what truly matters. ⚖️ The Weight — the responsibilities, the stewardships, and the burdens we carry that ...

Anchor Points 1 - Eyring "EVIDENCE THAT HE LOVES YOU"

In today’s Anchor Point, we dive deep into President Eyring’s powerful invitation to see the evidence of God’s love—especially in the moments that feel like refinement. So often we think refining is just “passing a test,” but President Eyring teaches that it’s far more tender and intentional than that. Refinement is transformation. Refinement is strengthening. Refinement is God shaping us into what He already sees in us. Even when it feels like the fire is too hot or the stretching is too m...

Episode 53 - Anchored - Leslie Householder

Leslie has lived a life of extraordinary ordinary moments—seven children, parents under one roof, moves across continents, and a faith that never fit neatly into the mold. From the quiet of a Utah closet as a child to youth camps under foreign skies, she learned early that God doesn’t always arrive on our schedule—and sometimes, the answers come only when we risk everything on what we do know. By twenty-seven, marriage and motherhood revealed sides of herself she hadn’t seen—flaws she couldn’...
