Find us on instagram @lddisciplespodcast, and be sure to check out our sister entity, Honey and Lilies, for all things temporal prep @honeynlilies! Thank you for joining us!

What if the Atonement was about more than paying for sin? In this thought-provoking conversation, Meghan Farner and Meg Rittmanic explore a symbolic and deeply spiritual interpretation of Christ’s Atonement through the lens of Heavenly Mother, divine adoption, sacred coverings, and spiritual rebirth.
Drawing from scripture, ancient symbolism, early Christian writings, temple imagery, and the recurring motif of weaving, Meg presents a framework that sees Christ not only as Savior, but as Life-Giver—one whose sacrifice creates a path for humanity to be spiritually adopted into the family of God.
Together, they examine the symbolism of birth, labor, garments, the Lamb of God, the temple veil, wisdom traditions, and the divine feminine. This episode is also an open invitation for collaborative discernment as Meg gathers feedback on concepts from her forthcoming book.

Heavenly Mother as the divine weaver
The connection between birth, death, and resurrection
Reframing the meaning of the Lamb of God
Adoption versus birth as spiritual metaphors
Sacred garments, coverings, and covenant identity
Early Christian teachings on ascension and divine inheritance

What does it really mean when scripture says that God is the same yesterday, today, and forever?
In this throwback solo episode, Megan Farner explores one of the most misunderstood phrases in scripture and challenges the common assumption that "the same" means "unchanging." Drawing from the King Follett Discourse, Lectures on Faith, the Book of Mormon, and broader spiritual principles, she examines how God's consistency may be rooted in perfect obedience to eternal law rather than the absence of growth or progression.
Topics include:
The true nature and character of God
Joseph Smith's teachings on eternal progression
The King Follett Discourse
Faith as a principle of power
The doctrine of Christ and spiritual transformation
Eternal laws, agency, miracles, and divine potential
What it means to become more like God
If you've ever wrestled with questions about God's nature, eternal progression, or the relationship between faith and spiritual growth, this episode offers a thought-provoking perspective.

Was Joseph Smith restoring more than early Christianity? In this episode, Maxine Hanks explores Mormonism as a wisdom tradition—one rooted in revelation, spiritual vision, Sophia wisdom, apocryphal texts, and direct connection with the divine.
Together, Meghan and Maxine discuss Gnostic Christianity, the role of women in early Christianity and early Mormonism, Joseph Smith’s engagement with wisdom literature, the First Vision as a wisdom-seeking event, and why many of the truths people search for outside Mormonism may already exist within the Restoration.

This conversation reveals how Christ’s teachings outline a step-by-step inner journey: emptying the false, receiving truth, becoming whole, and embodying divine love.
You’ll learn how concepts like being “poor in spirit,” “meek,” and “pure in heart” are not just moral ideals—but stages in a deeply transformative process. Plus, a profound discussion on what it really means to become a peacemaker—and why that can only happen after inner healing and alignment.

This lesson reframes kingship not as worldly power or domination, but as servant leadership, humility, sacrifice, and love.

✨ The spiritual meaning of royal emblems including the scepter, orb, sword, robe, and crown

In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore how the Atonement of Jesus Christ is revealed within the temple endowment — and how temple ordinances are designed to facilitate real spiritual transformation rather than symbolic performance alone.
This lesson explains the three essential components of every ordinance: a physical sign, a covenant commitment, and a spiritual token or gift of grace. Viewers will learn how these elements unfold through the Aaronic and Melchizedek ordinances and how they represent a progressive journey back into the presence of God.
You’ll learn:
✨ How signs symbolize willingness to enter covenant relationship with Christ
✨ Why covenants represent lived discipleship rather than checklist obedience
✨ How tokens symbolize real spiritual manifestations and gifts of grace
✨ The difference between Aaronic and Melchizedek ordinances
✨ How baptism, initiatory, marriage, and consecration fit into spiritual progression
✨ What calling and election, the second comforter, and divine presence represent
✨ How light increases through obedience, sanctification, and revelation
✨ Why ordinances must be lived — not merely performed — to transform the soul
✨ How grace and works function together in spiritual maturation
This episode also addresses common misunderstandings about works-based salvation and clarifies how the endowment teaches reliance on Christ’s grace to complete the soul’s transformation and return to divine presence.

What if the most important thing Jesus ever did wasn’t to die—but to live?
In this episode of Hidden Wisdom, we explore a radically different perspective on Christ’s mission, the atonement, and what it really means to follow Him. Instead of focusing solely on His death, this conversation dives into the idea that Jesus came to reveal the true nature of God—and the true nature of YOU.
We unpack concepts like the kingdom of heaven within, spiritual transformation, Christ consciousness, and the path of becoming fully human and fully divine. If you’ve ever felt tension with traditional atonement teachings or sensed there’s something deeper, this episode will challenge and expand your understanding.
This is not about abandoning faith—it’s about deepening it.

Is the divine feminine a deception, or have we been taught to fear something sacred? In this episode, we explore Heavenly Mother, feminine wisdom in scripture, the “Queen of Heaven” debate, and why discernment matters more than fear.
Meghan responds to arguments that connect the divine feminine with deception, idolatry, and false light. She examines scriptural symbolism, the role of feminine wisdom in Proverbs and the Tree of Life, questions around 1 Enoch 42, and the historical suppression of feminine imagery in religious tradition. This conversation also dives into discernment, personal revelation, spiritual autonomy, and the relationship between divine masculine and divine feminine as part of becoming whole.

In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore the temple endowment as a living pattern of spiritual progression — revealing how the ancient story of Creation, Fall, and Atonement mirrors the literary Hero’s Journey and the soul’s path of transformation back to God.
This lesson reframes the endowment not as repetitive ceremony, but as a sacred roadmap for ascension, spiritual maturity, and returning to the presence of Jesus Christ — even in mortality.
You’ll learn:
✨ How the Hero’s Journey reflects eternal spiritual patterns
✨ Why the endowment teaches a cycle of Creation, Fall, and Atonement
✨ How personal transformation requires crossing into the unknown
✨ Why spiritual growth includes struggle, death of the old self, and rebirth
✨ How atonement represents reconciliation, synthesis, and divine integration
✨ Why returning to God “in the flesh” is a real spiritual invitation
✨ How the temple functions as a blueprint rather than a performance
✨ How to apply this pattern to faith transitions, relationships, identity, and growth
This episode also explores examples from scripture, literature, physics, and lived spiritual experience, helping viewers recognize this universal pattern operating in both micro and macro dimensions of life.
If you’ve ever felt called toward deeper spiritual maturity, wondered why transformation often requires discomfort, or sensed that the temple holds a hidden roadmap for ascension, this lesson offers profound clarity and hope.

In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore the symbolic meaning of the Initiatory ceremony and how it represents spiritual rebirth, divine identity, and preparation to enter increasingly sacred space in our journey back to God.
This lesson reveals how the Initiatory completes the symbolism of baptism by mirroring the elements of physical birth — washing, anointing, clothing, naming, and blessing — and how these sacred actions teach the soul how հոդված of becoming kings and priests, queens and priestesses in the divine order of God.

There is a hidden story—preserved in ancient Jewish and early Christian tradition—that reveals one of the most profound maps of feminine spiritual transformation.
The story of Joseph and Asenath is not simply about marriage.
It is about the turning of the soul.
In this episode, we explore Asenath as an archetype of the divine feminine in exile—living in a tower of beauty, sovereignty, and separation—and her descent into Metanoia: the sacred reversal of the heart.
Through symbols like:
…we uncover a path of transformation that is as relevant now as it was then.
We also explore the deeper esoteric dimension of Metanoia—not just repentance, but a living feminine force that restores alignment, softens the heart, and leads the soul back into union with God.
This episode is for anyone who feels:
This is not about becoming someone new.
It is about returning to what you were always meant to be:
A living sanctuary.
A place of divine indwelling.
A soul prepared for union.

In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore the five modern temple covenants and what they truly require beyond surface-level religious compliance.
This lesson reframes temple covenants as a progressive spiritual ladder rather than a checklist — revealing how each covenant builds upon the last and invites deeper levels of personal revelation, sacrifice, embodiment, transformation, and Christ-centered living.
The five covenants explored include:
✨ The Law of Obedience — learning to follow God through personal revelation
✨ The Law of Sacrifice — offering a broken heart and contrite spirit
✨ The Law of the Gospel — embodying Christlike character and lived discipleship
✨ The Law of Chastity — integrating body, desire, identity, and faithfulness
✨ The Law of Consecration — offering one’s life in service to God and others
Viewers will learn how these covenants operate as a developmental pathway rather than rigid rules, how personal revelation guides individual spiritual growth, and how covenant living prepares the soul for spiritual maturity and divine partnership with Jesus Christ.
This episode also explores how these covenants connect to ancient covenant structures, how they unfold through a lifelong process of sanctification, and how they shape identity, purpose, and spiritual stewardship.
If you’ve ever wondered what the temple covenants truly mean, how to live them authentically, or how they shape real spiritual transformation, this lesson provides deep clarity and practical spiritual insight.

In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore three major covenant structures found throughout scripture — the Sinai covenant, the Davidic covenant, and the Abrahamic covenant — and how all three operate within what is called the “new and everlasting covenant.”
This lesson reveals how God mercifully extends covenant relationships to humanity through multiple structures: collective covenants with nations and communities, intercessory covenants through proxy saviors, and personal covenants with individuals and their posterity. Together, these patterns reveal a divine system designed to bless, gather, protect, and spiritually mature God’s children across generations.
You’ll learn:
✨ What the Sinai covenant teaches about collective covenant responsibility
✨ How the Davidic covenant reveals intercession, proxy leadership, and spiritual stewardship
✨ Why Jesus Christ is the ultimate intercessor and covenant mediator
✨ How the Abrahamic covenant demonstrates personal covenant relationship and divine promise
✨ Why God honors covenant across time, nations, and generations
✨ How covenant structures support spiritual ascension and becoming
✨ What the “new and everlasting covenant” truly means
This episode also explores biblical examples including Moses, David, Hezekiah, Abraham, Joseph Smith, the Book of Mormon covenant tradition, and how covenant structures may continue to unfold in modern spiritual development.
If you’ve ever wondered how covenants operate beyond individual belief, how intercession functions spiritually, or how God organizes collective spiritual growth, this lesson offers deep insight and spiritual coherence.

In this episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan Farner unpacks one of the most mysterious visions in scripture: Jacob’s Ladder (Genesis 28).
Far from a story about life after death, Jacob’s Ladder is revealed as a living blueprint for spiritual embodiment — the pattern of descending into matter and reascending into divine awareness while still in the flesh.
Drawing connections across ancient traditions, Kabbalah, alchemy, astrology, Gnostic cosmology, Egyptian initiation, and Christian mysticism, Meghan explores:
This episode reframes Jacob’s declaration — “This is the gate of heaven” — as an inward revelation: the temple is you.
If you are studying the Old Testament, exploring esoteric Christianity, or walking the path of spiritual initiation, this episode offers a grounded yet expansive lens on the ladder that exists within your own anatomy, psychology, and soul.

In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore covenants not as legal contracts or religious checklists, but as sacred relationships of love, union, and spiritual transformation with God.
This lesson reframes covenant as an invitation into intimate relationship — the merging of identity, loyalty, and purpose between God and the soul. Drawing from biblical symbolism, ancient covenant patterns, and temple theology, the discussion reveals why covenant is ultimately relational rather than transactional.
You’ll learn:
✨ Why covenant means relationship, not merely agreement
✨ How ancient covenants symbolized the merging of identity and unity of heart
✨ Why pride and spiritual superiority undermine covenant consciousness
✨ The three components of covenant: initiation, obligations, and blessings
✨ How Christ is revealed in scripture as the Bridegroom
✨ The spiritual meaning of sacred marriage symbolism
✨ The Hebrew concept of hesed (covenant love and loving-kindness)
✨ How covenant deepens personal intimacy with God
This episode also explores how covenant relationships evolve through spiritual growth, how divine mercy supports the learning process, and why God’s desire is union rather than compliance. Viewers are invited to reconsider their relationship with Christ as one of devotion, trust, love, and becoming.
If you’ve ever felt that faith has become overly transactional, rigid, or institutional, this lesson offers a healing and expansive vision of covenant as sacred relationship and divine intimacy.

In this heartfelt and expansive episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan Farner is joined by Shayna Persad, yoga teacher, womb healer, astrologer, and creator of Healing with Shayna, for a powerful conversation on conscious motherhood as a path of spiritual awakening.
Shayna shares her journey from a Catholic upbringing into divine feminine embodiment, womb wisdom, and conscious parenting—exploring how children act as mirrors for unhealed wounds, nervous system dysregulation, and inherited patterns. Together, Meghan and Shayna unpack the difference between conscious parenting and permissive parenting, the role of boundaries, and why many “good” children are actually responding to trauma rather than safety.
This episode weaves together spirituality, psychology, astrology, and motherhood to reframe parenting not as control or hierarchy, but as partnership, guidance, and soul-level remembrance. They also explore how our views of parenting shape our views of God, authority, and agency—and why healing the “bad mom” wound is essential for feminine wholeness.

In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore what “saving ordinances” truly mean — and challenge the common assumption that symbolic rituals are salvific in and of themselves.
This lesson reframes temple ordinances not as spiritual hall passes or automatic guarantees of salvation, but as symbolic invitations into real spiritual transformation, covenant relationship, and lived discipleship through the grace of Jesus Christ.
Using a well-known quote from Brigham Young as a starting point, the discussion unpacks why memorizing signs, tokens, or participating in ceremonies alone cannot save a person — and how those symbols instead point toward deeper spiritual realities that must be experienced, embodied, and received through grace.
You’ll learn:
✨ Why ordinances are a means, not an end
✨ How symbols represent real spiritual experiences and gifts of grace
✨ The danger of reducing temple worship to performance or compliance
✨ Why God is interested in who we are becoming, not just what we are doing
✨ How ancient Israel struggled with the same misunderstanding
✨ How the Book of Mormon functions as a temple text
✨ What it means to “see beyond the symbol” into spiritual reality
This episode invites viewers to move beyond surface-level religious participation into conscious spiritual growth, discernment, and personal transformation in Christ.
If you’ve ever wondered whether ordinances alone can save you, how grace actually works, or how temple symbolism connects to lived spiritual experience, this lesson provides clarity and depth.

In this expansive episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan Farner is joined by theologian and author Michelle Wiener to explore the hidden feminine thread within the Abrahamic tradition.
Drawing from Michelle’s book Return to Mamre: Recovering the Melchizedek Mysteries Beneath the Sacred Groves, this conversation reframes Abraham and Sarah not merely as patriarch and matriarch, but as participants in a sacred matrimonial priesthood order — a divine pairing of priest and priestess rooted in ancient sacred groves, temple imagery, and cosmic symbolism.
Together, they explore:
This episode invites listeners into deeper discernment, symbolic literacy, and spiritual maturity — reclaiming a balanced priesthood of partnership rather than hierarchy.
If you’ve ever wondered whether the sacred feminine was truly erased from scripture — and how to recover her — this conversation will expand your lens.

In this special bonus episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan and McKay Farner share the talks they delivered in sacrament meeting on the greatest commandment: to "love thy neighbor as thyself."
Meghan explores the often-overlooked doctrine of self-love through the lens of agape—the unconditional love that God is. She unpacks false beliefs (“unbelief”) that keep us stuck in shame and natural-man identity, reframing repentance as healing rather than punishment. Drawing from Mosiah 3:19, Doctrine & Covenants 93, Moroni 7, and the teachings of President David O. McKay, she invites listeners to see themselves as the “pearl of great price”—already worthy of divine love.
McKay then shares a powerful mission story that forever changed his understanding of loving your neighbor. Through personal experience—including stepping away from church activity—he reflects on charity without ulterior motive and what it truly means to love as Christ loves.
Together, these talks offer a message of hope, grace, and spiritual maturity:
You cannot hate yourself into holiness.
You cannot give a gift you have not received.
And love is not kindness with a destination attached.

In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore what ordinances truly are, why they matter spiritually, and how they function as the bridge between human effort and the saving power of Jesus Christ’s Atonement.
This lesson introduces a transformational framework for understanding ordinances as having three essential components: a physical action, a symbolic spiritual teaching, and a real spiritual manifestation or gift of grace. Using baptism as a primary example, the discussion reveals how ordinances are not merely symbolic rituals, but divinely designed pathways for spiritual rebirth, covenant relationship, and inner transformation.
You’ll learn:
✨ Why ordinances are the means by which we access the power of Christ’s Atonement
✨ The three essential components of every saving ordinance
✨ How baptism teaches death, rebirth, surrender, and resurrection
✨ What baptism of fire and the Holy Ghost truly represents
✨ Why ordinances are incomplete without spiritual manifestation
✨ How temple ordinances mirror these same spiritual patterns
✨ The meaning of signs, tokens, and covenant exchange
This episode invites viewers to move beyond automatic or surface-level participation in ordinances and toward lived spiritual experience, discernment, and conscious covenant relationship.
If you’ve ever wondered why ordinances matter, how they actually change us, or how temple rituals connect to real spiritual growth, this lesson provides essential clarity and spiritual depth.

In this expansive episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan Farner is joined by returning guest Phil McLemore for a deep, practical teaching on meditation as the highest form of prayer. Phil presents meditation as an ancient practice of awareness, union with God, and transformation.
Together, they explore the difference between mindfulness and transcendental (yoga) meditation, why stillness is essential for spiritual perception, and how meditation aligns with Jesus’ own teachings on prayer, the inner kingdom, and becoming “one” with God. Phil offers step-by-step guidance on posture, breath, mantra, handling distractions, and receiving meditation as a feminine, receptive flow of grace rather than a forced effort.
This episode also addresses common fears around meditation, ego resistance, spiritual ego, emotional release, and discernment—grounding the practice firmly in Christ-centered theology, embodiment, and character transformation. For anyone seeking a deeper experience of God, inner healing, and true at-one-ment, this episode serves as both teaching and invitation.

In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore ancient covenant ceremonies and what covenants truly meant in biblical and Israelite culture — far beyond the modern idea of a simple two-way promise.
Using the story of David and Jonathan as a primary archetype, this lesson reveals how ancient covenants involved the merging of identity, shared inheritance, protection, loyalty, sacrifice, and sacred relationship. These covenant patterns illuminate how God relates to humanity and what it means to enter a covenant relationship with Jesus Christ.
You’ll learn:
✨ Why ancient covenants were relational, not contractual
✨ How covenant ceremonies symbolized shared identity, strength, and inheritance
✨ The spiritual meaning of robes, weapons, and sacred exchanges
✨ How covenant blood symbolism points to Christ’s atonement
✨ Why God identifies Himself as One who keeps covenant and shows mercy
✨ How covenant blessings extend across generations
✨ What covenant faithfulness, justice, and mercy look like in real life
This episode also explores the story of the Gibeonites, the seriousness of covenant obligations, and how God honors covenant relationships even across centuries. Viewers are invited to reconsider temple covenants as sacred relationships of transformation rather than mere ritual compliance.
If you’ve ever wondered what temple covenants truly mean, how God relates to covenant partners, or how ancient practices illuminate modern worship, this lesson provides essential spiritual foundations.

In this episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan sits down with Nelson Whiting—bestselling author of Your Problem Isn’t Pornography, certified clinical hypnotherapist, and founder of No Limits Hypnotherapy—for a grounded, expansive conversation about hypnotherapy as a form of deep repentance: getting beneath behavior to the belief systems that drive shame cycles, anxiety, compulsions, and spiritual disconnection.
Nelson explains how real change happens when the conscious and subconscious mind come into agreement, why “time heals” is often a myth, and how prayer, meditation, and clinical hypnosis can help quiet survival mode, restore inner safety, and create rapid transformation through new perspective and new choices. They explore the spiritual implications of inner work, the role of agency, and why healing often requires moving from self-criticism into self-love—so you can reconnect with God, truth, and your highest identity.
You’ll also hear discussion on spiritual discernment (including “false spirits”), the balance of masculine and feminine within healing, and a powerful closing reflection on being “born again” as a spiritual rebirth—held in what Meghan calls the cosmic womb.

In this episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen explore how to interpret temple symbols and why symbolic language is central to spiritual growth, revelation, and scripture study.
This lesson introduces a foundational principle of temple worship: symbols are layered, multidimensional, and designed to teach us throughout our entire lifetime. Rather than limiting symbols to one fixed meaning, viewers are invited to approach temple imagery, scripture, and sacred ritual with spiritual curiosity, humility, and discernment.
You’ll learn:
✨ Why all scripture can be viewed as temple text
✨ How symbols operate on micro and macro levels of meaning
✨ Why spiritual stagnation happens when symbols are interpreted too narrowly
✨ Multiple symbolic interpretations of the veil — including Christ, creation, protection, unbelief, and the divine feminine
✨ How to let the Spirit expand your understanding over time
✨ Practical ways to study and apply symbolism in your personal worship and scripture study
This episode also explores examples from Doctrine & Covenants 109, Hebrews 10, the Sermon on the Mount, and the Book of Mormon, showing how temple symbolism weaves throughout sacred text.
If you’ve ever felt that the temple holds deeper meaning than you were taught — or if you desire a more experiential relationship with God — this lesson offers tools to begin seeing with spiritual eyes.

In this profound episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan Farner is joined by Nekesha Burrell, who shares how her near-death experience (NDE) transformed her relationship with God, fear, and consciousness itself.
Raised in a strict Christian environment and exposed to multiple faith traditions, Nekesha describes the journey from religious fear and survival mode into direct knowing of God beyond limitation. She explores breath as consciousness, intuition as divine guidance, and why peace—not fear—is the true signal of alignment with God.
Together, Meghan and Nekesha discuss religious conditioning, spiritual gifts, embodiment, feminine wisdom, emotional regulation, and why spiritual evolution is not rebellion—but expansion. This episode invites listeners to release fear-based faith, trust their inner knowing, and experience God as an ever-expanding presence rather than a confined doctrine.

In this first episode of House of Learning: Understanding the Doctrine of the Temple, Meghan Farner and Cory Jensen introduce five powerful paradigm shifts that radically transform how we understand temple worship, spiritual growth, and our relationship with Jesus Christ.
This episode explores:
✨ Why you are literally meant to become the temple of God
✨ How the temple endowment is not historical reenactment, but a symbolic map of your own spiritual journey
✨ Why ordinances are symbolic of real spiritual experiences of grace and transformation
✨ How every element of the temple ultimately testifies of Christ
✨ The profound possibility of returning to the presence of Jesus Christ in mortality
Rather than approaching the temple as a checklist of religious compliance, this course invites you into a living, experiential relationship with God — where the temple becomes a blueprint for spiritual maturity, identity, embodiment, and divine intimacy.
If you’ve ever felt that the temple holds deeper meaning than you were taught…
If you desire a more personal relationship with Christ…
If you are ready to engage scripture and symbolism with spiritual discernment…

In this first episode of Hidden Wisdom for 2026, Meghan introduces the core framework behind the podcast’s direction: living the mysteries. Drawing from ancient traditions, Christian mysticism, symbolism, archetype, and scripture, this episode explains the difference between exoteric religion and esoteric wisdom, and why both are essential for true spiritual maturity.
Meghan explores the soul’s journey as a process of repeated death and rebirth, the movement from head knowledge to embodied wisdom, and the transformation that occurs when inner false identities are released. This episode addresses spiritual development, deconstruction, shadow work, repentance, grace, and theosis, all framed within a Christ-centered path.
Listeners are invited to develop “eyes to see,” reclaim personal spiritual authority, and understand how religion can prepare us for deeper, inward communion with God rather than replace it.
This foundational episode sets the tone for Hidden Wisdom in 2026 and offers a grounded, Christ-rooted approach to esoteric spirituality, divine law, and living a transformed life.

In this extended episode of Hidden Wisdom, Meghan Farner offers a courageous and deeply grounded exploration of what it truly means to call the Bible “the Word of God.” Drawing from history, theology, mysticism, and personal discernment, Meghan invites listeners to approach scripture—especially the Old Testament—not as an inerrant divine transcript, but as a profoundly human record of humanity wrestling with God.
This episode examines biblical authorship, political and cultural influences, polytheism in ancient Israel, the suppression of the divine feminine, and the role of ego, power, and hierarchy in shaping scripture. Meghan introduces the four levels of Hebrew interpretation, demonstrates how symbolic and mystical readings restore depth and coherence, and reframes troubling biblical narratives as invitations to inner transformation rather than external obedience.
Ultimately, this episode is a call to spiritual maturity: to trust Christ, cultivate discernment, and allow God—not institutions—to be your primary tutor. For anyone studying the Bible this year, navigating faith transitions, or seeking a lived experience of the Divine beyond fear, this conversation offers clarity, permission, and profound hope.

02:40 – 04:00 | Why the Old Testament creates tension and confusion

In this final episode of 2025, Meghan reflects on her four-year journey through second coming prophecy, symbolism, and the rediscovery of the Divine Feminine. What began as a study of last-days events has evolved into a deeper realization: Zion’s redemption and the rise of the Divine Feminine are inseparable.
Drawing from LDS canon, apocryphal texts like The Gospel of the Beloved Companion, ancient traditions, temple symbolism, and universal archetypes, Meghan shows how the feminine principles of intuition, relationship, heart-centered wisdom, and spiritual authority have always been woven into prophecy.
She explores Mary Magdalene as “the tower,” Zion as the bride, the birthing symbolism of the new heaven and new earth, and the ways masculine and feminine partnership create the spiritual maturity required for Christ’s return.
This episode dives deep into:
• the parable of the tower
• the true meaning of Magdalene
• the feminine role in death, rebirth, and the millennium
• Zion as a feminine state of being
• the partnership of masculine and feminine energies
• global prophetic traditions pointing to feminine renewal
A powerful close to the year and an invitation to reclaim the feminine in your own spiritual path.

What is actually happening when a woman begins to question, deconstruct, or leave her religious roots?
In this powerful continuation of our spiritual journeys series, we invite Julie Dean Richards to help us explore the heroine’s journey — a spiritual awakening that doesn’t just seek the God outside, but also honors the God within.
Together, we reflect on the feminine path of faith, the courage it takes to enter the wilderness, and how to root into a grounded masculine so we can fly freely into divine feminine wisdom. If you're in the middle of a transition — emotionally, spiritually, or religiously — this episode is a soft, strong reminder: You’re not alone, and wherever you are, it’s okay.

In this podcast series, we explore the process of spiritual development through the lens of the Hero’s + Heroine's Journey, and why both men and women must understand both sides of the journey to fully connect with Christ and God.
Most of us have only been taught one part of the story—the masculine path. But to truly walk in spiritual wholeness, we must rediscover and integrate the feminine path as well. This foundation is key to understanding the spirit of Elijah, the restoration of all things, and what it means to walk in divine union.

Tamara Roberts lives in Layton, Utah. She has been married for 38 years and is a devoted wife and mother to four children and six beautiful grandchildren. She enjoys hiking, walking, cycling, gardening, (anything in nature really), as well as cooking and creating healthy meals out of just about any recipe, reading a good book, watching oldies and spending time with her family.
Tamara currently serves in the Layton temple and have served in several Relief Society callings. This is where her love for helping faithful women started. She has been a lifelong learner of nutrition, mindful living, and gospel study, exploring how to live intentionally as a means to overcome depression and anxiety, as well as an eating disorder, and to align her health practices to her faith in Christ and gospel study.
In 2022, Tamara became certified in Mindful Eating and Nutrition, Meditation, CBT therapy for Emotional Eating and started providing consultations for women through her business, Mindful Journey Studio.LLC. She wanted a way to connect women to Christ through Mindful Living and nutrition which she found lacking in the world of mindfulness and meditation.
Tamara is the creator of Faithfully Nourished: Christ-Centered Wellness for Women on YouTube, Instagram and Facebook where she produces videos on Tuesdays and Fridays that promote nourishing ourselves body, mind and spirit with Jesus Christ at the center of all we do. She is passionate about empowering women to find healing through nourishing their bodies, minds, and spirits through a Christ-centered approach to overall wellness for women.

Katie Hansen was born with a heart that naturally “seeks and finds”.

Through that experience building foundation within herself and sharing from a sincere desire to serve in God’s Kingdom, she has begun fulfilling one of her life-calls to assist in the restoration of our Original Culture & Story through Foundation Builder Guide’s original Hebraic sources study program & Facilitator Mentoring community.

Meghan is joined by Alisa Davis, a writer for LDD's Honey + Lilies blog, to discuss the imprints of other Christian traditions on her LDS worship. Topics Include:
Alisa is a convert to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and lives with her husband and 3 children in the Pacific Northwest.
Raised as an Evangelical Alisa became disillusioned with the gospel as it was taught and experienced in her Evangelical environment during a divorce to her first husband. Hungry for a deeper understanding and experience of both spiritual and doctrinal things related to the Gospel, Alisa spent several years in the Hebrew Roots movement studying the Jewishness of the Bible and the Jewish context for the New Testament, and in the Charismatic movement as typified by Bethel Church in Redding CA. Still not satisfied as the Spirit taught her about truths regarding things like the premortal existence and the importance of sacraments - Alisa then found herself in the Episcopal Church of America where she was a member for a decade before joining the Church of Jesus Christ.
Now Alisa seeks to use the experiences and lessons learned on her spiritual journey through many versions of Christianity to enrich her own experience and testimony as a member of the Church and loves to share the gifts she gained through those experiences with others.

Meghan is joined by Catholic artist Jordan Ring-Sabake for a fantastic interfaith discussion! Topics include:
- The experience of spiritual rebirth
- Teaching our children the gospel through our talents and gifts
- Living the Higher Law
- The importance of contrast and balance
- The value of sacrifice
Based in Saratoga Springs, Utah, Jordan is a Christian artist whose journey from atheism to faith is an amalgamation of heeding a call to both come to Christ and create works of sacred art.
Originally a realist painter of wildlife and portraiture, Jordan experienced a series of transformative events that reshaped his worldview and steered him towards the teachings of Christ.
This spiritual awakening profoundly influenced his artistic direction, leading him to imbue his works with a rich tapestry of personal faith in a biblical context.
Now, Jordan's mission is clear: to inspire faith through works of worshipful art that uphold the tradition of oil painting and resonate with contemporary audiences. His paintings, intricate in detail and steeped in tradition, are a testament to the enduring relevance of Christian themes and the timeless beauty of oil painting.
Jordan seeks to spark spiritual curiosity and connection in those who seek the truth and find Jesus Christ. In a post-modern world that embraces scandal, hedonism, and controversy in art, Jordan's work seeks to be a means whereby the holy spirit can heal the hearts of those lacking the spiritual nourishment that comes through the salvific grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

What does it mean for women to claim their priesthood privileges, as Joseph Smith and Russell M. Nelson both have encouraged us to do? It starts by understanding what the priesthood for women looks like and how it beautifully complements the male priesthood.
In this episode we will just scratch the surface of learning what priestesshood looks like by pulling examples from the Bible and the Book of Mormon. We will also discuss how you can begin your personal journey toward seeking to know the divine feminine in God and in you!
In this video we'll talk about:
~Abish and the Queen like you've never seen before
~The wife of Jesus
~The false goddess
~Why the Song of Solomon is awesome
~And much more!

Why are there so many unnamed prophets in the Book of Mormon? Who are they?!

There's so much more here to explore and the wonderful thing is, as we dig deeper, we find a beautiful well of water springing up unto everlasting life!
Join us as we also discuss:

Meghan is joined by author Heather Linchenko as they discuss her recent book, "'I Meant Well' and Other Words That Kill Relationships." Topics include:
Heather Linchenko was raised in a Christian home in Idaho, the eighth of ten children. She served as a missionary in Belgium and France and was privileged to work for several years as the executive assistant to Stephen R. Covey, author of the best-selling book, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. She married a man who grew up as one of two siblings in an atheist home in communist Russia. As she and her husband raised their five children, their polar opposite backgrounds necessitated a break from convention and tradition, emboldening Heather to break ground on a garden of fresh ideas. Her greatest passion is helping others create a culture of laughter, learning, and openness in the home.
She mutinied against today’s broken approach to teaching math to young children by creating a truly new and compelling times tables product/program (for kids as young as 5 or 6) that creates in them a flexible, math-ready brain and a belief that they are smart [MathHacked.com]. She loves to see young kids thrive on the addictive feeling of success.
She has authored three books: Letters from Kazakhstan, which details her family’s 1998 adventures in post-Soviet Kazakhstan; Mom! You’re Working Too Hard, which teaches parents and teachers how to educate children in a way everyone loves (no resistance!); and [hot off the press] “I Meant Well' And Other Words That Kill Relationships, wherein she shares a wealth of knowledge on how to make bad relationships good and good relationships vibrant. As time permits, she enjoys mentoring others through their relationship conundrums.
She has developed a one-day intensive training called “Expand Your Influence” wherein she trains busy executives how—through the development of specific mental and verbal relationship skills—to fast-track their way to greater personal and business success. One of her greatest compliments is to have been referred to as “the relationship scientist.”
Her central guiding quote is: “From the closed-mindedness that won’t accept new truth; from the laziness that will accept half-truth; From the arrogance that thinks it knows all truth; Good Lord, deliver me” (Kenyan Prayer).

Join Jocelyn for our Come, Follow Me episode covering the entire book of Jacob!
Why does Jacob throw the Olive Tree Allegory in the middle of a sermon on pride, polygamy, and antichrists? Because it's not an allegory! It's a parable. And your understanding goes only as deep as your willingness to learn.
In this week's special lecture on the Book of Jacob in the Book of Mormon we'll explore the themes Jacob is tying together to give us a critical message for our day, themes like:
The balance between female and male
True Love vs Whoredoms
Zion vs Elitism
Christ vs Anti-Christ
and the Temple vs Secret Combinations

Dave Butler is not an academic. He has been a lawyer, a consultant, a corporate trainer, and a registered investment banking representative. He is now a Consulting Editor for Baen Books and part-owner of a business that designs bespoke elearning.
Dave also writes fiction, principally science fiction and fantasy and principally for adults. His eighteenth novel was published in January 2024. His books have won the Dragon Award, the Whitney Award, and the Association for Mormon Letters Award for Novel. In early 2021, Dave co-curated “A Desolating Sickness,” a literary response to the Covid pandemic that was displayed in BYU’s Harold B. Lee Library. This semester (Winter 2024) for the second time, his novel The Cunning Man (co-written with Aaron Michael Ritchey), which in July 2022 made the AML’s list of 100 Works of Significant Mormon Literature, is being taught in a Mormon Lit class on BYU campus.
Dave takes the position that the Book of Mormon is an ancient document, and also that the Book of Mormon is a work of temple literature. The Nephite prophets were members of an esoteric lineage that wrote for an audience that they expected to possess eyes to see and ears to hear, and the intended way to understand the meaning of their writings is to read through the lens of our own temple experience. He embodied his early thoughts in this vein in a pair of short books, Plain and Precious Things and The Goodness and the Mysteries, both self-published under the pen name D. John Butler.
Dave is currently hard at work on his third book on this subject, entitled In the Language of Adam. He hopes to bring this book out in Spring 2024.
Dave plays guitar and banjo whenever he can, and hangs out in Utah with his wife, their children, and the family dog.

Meghan is joined by the "Mormon Wolf of Wall Street," Shane Baldwin, to discuss key takeaways from his spiritual journey, including time spent in federal prison. Topics include:
Shane Baldwin is an acclaimed author and businessman, known for his extraordinary resilience and unwavering commitment to personal growth. Born with an insatiable desire to turn dreams into reality, Shane dedicated his life to understanding the complex interplay between truth, perception, and personal transformation.
After being convicted of securities fraud, Shane found himself thrust into the depths of a five-year prison sentence. It was within the walls of his solitary confinement cell that he embarked on a profound journey of self-discovery and introspection, which would become the foundation for his groundbreaking theories and the inspiration behind his written work, The Honest Lie.
During his time in prison, Shane immersed himself in the study of philosophy, psychology, and the power of the mind. Drawing from his own experiences and the timeless wisdom of thought leaders past and present, he developed a unique perspective centered around the concept of telling "honest lies." This groundbreaking method explores the transformative potential of speaking desires into existence while emphasizing the importance of radical honesty as a catalyst for personal growth.
Shane's ability to eloquently capture the essence of his introspective journey and translate it into relatable and thought-provoking prose has garnered widespread acclaim. Through his writing, he provides readers with a roadmap to navigate their own inner struggles, inspiring them to embrace vulnerability and authenticity as vehicles for profound change.
Beyond his role as an author, Shane has emerged as a sought-after speaker and mentor, captivating audiences with his innate ability to motivate and unique perspective on personal development. He has delivered keynote addresses at prestigious events, sharing his powerful insights on reprogramming the mind and harnessing the creative power of honesty.

Yes, one set of twins), and are many years into raising their own happy Mormon-ish family.

Meghan is joined by non-denominational theist apologist Howard George Stirrup to discuss evidences of the Divine Creator. Topics include:
Howard George Stirrup was born in Stoke on Trent, United Kingdom. He moved to Spain when 14 years old, where he spent most of adolescence and young adulthood making repetitive mistakes in the infamous sin city, Benidorm.

He has gone on to produce related educational video content on media platforms like YouTube, BitChute, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter and Rumble etc with name " Howard George Stirrup".
Howard has participated in multiple debates with atheist YouTubers, to present new information to their audiences.

Why does Nephi throw in chapters 48 & 49 at the end of the account of his journey to the promised land?

Meghan is joined by Kamie Bushman, who shares her experience overcoming mental health struggles and being born again. Topics include:
-Choosing Truth Over Prior Beliefs
- What Negative Self-Talk Is
- Shame vs. a Broken Heart and Contrite Spirit
- The Universality of Christ's Loving Healing
- The Gift of Discernment
Kamie Bushman has loved the gospel from an early age. In her life she's moved 12 times, and lived in 7 states, but the gospel has always been a constant. She currently hails from Washington State.
Kamie graduated Cum Laude from BYU with a Bachelor's in nutritional science a year early, which allowed her to follow her husband to Washington for dental school. Twelve years later they now have four children, the youngest of which is named Eve after mother Eve, who is dear to Kamie’s heart. In her early years of mothering, Kamie spent her free time chasing the dream of becoming a writer. After ten years of working on a manuscript, however, she felt God pointing her in another direction. In 2021, Kamie gave up writing to homeschool her own children and a handful of others in a one room schoolhouse. There she has discovered the joy of finding God's hand throughout history and is teaching her students to do the same. She loves having the spirit in the classroom and feels it is a little piece of Zion.
Recently, Kamie has felt impressed to put her life experiences to use by helping others along the covenant path through a YouTube series titled Principles of Power. Kamie has great compassion for the many who find themselves unnecessarily stuck, not knowing how to access the power that Christ intended for us through His gospel. She highlights eternal truths that, when followed, create a powerful trajectory of spiritual momentum. She loves quoting President Nelson as often as possible, and hopes her small efforts can be a part of the work he's asked us to do - to become a people able, ready, and worthy to meet the Lord when he comes.

Meghan is joined by Mike Crowley to discuss an apocryphal text from 2 Esdras known as "Ezra's Eagle." Topics include:
Michael Crowley is the "crazy guy" who started the "Ezra’s Eagle" Facebook group.
Mike was raised as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served in the Guatemala City North Mission from 88-90. He's also served in numerous callings, including Seminary Teacher, Ward Mission Leader, Elders Quorum President, Ward Clerk and many others.
The Ezra's Eagle Facebook group strives to create a space where members can discuss topics pertaining to the Second Coming, particularly those elaborated on by Michael Rush, from a faithful perspective. The group has expanded its range of gospel topics as we’ve grown, even discussing some pretty strange things like those found in the Book of Enoch.
Mike and his wife have raised their family near the City of Redding in Northern California. They have four beautiful daughters, a cat, a dog, a love bird and now a bunch of chickens.

Sustaining the covenant is doing everything in our power to help someone who is called to an office in the priesthood to fulfill the call to come clean from the blood and sins of this generation. We sustain as we ourselves repent and become clean and then can discern, support, and add our faith to those who have a critical responsibility to turn keys on our behalf.
All men and women are invited to become possessors of a knowledge and power of God that is otherworldly. It is the invitation of the fullness of the gospel to receive a fullness of Christ - in this life.
We can experience the miracles of redemption and unlock heaven and pull it down to this earth. This is our great calling and the Lord's invitation. Please bear with me as I witness to my understanding of these principles and let us orient ourselves to the heavens and ask the Lord in his great mercy to accept our desires to come to him and bear witness of his word. I have a personal witness of him and his doctrine, and I bear this testimony in these presentations as someone who claims no authority only insofar as the Holy Ghost bears witness to the principles of which I testify.

Nominations can be submitted HERE.
Please submit donations of any amount HERE.
As disciples of Jesus Christ, one of the primary desires of our hearts is to become like our Savior. And how can we expect to become like Him unless we are willing to become (lowercase-s) “saviors” ourselves?
Administering relief to the sick, needy and afflicted is a sign of true discipleship. As we progress through obedience to the voice of Christ and are blessed through the grace of His Atonement to receive a remission of our sins, we are charged to “…impart of your substance to the poor, every man according to that which he hath, such as feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, visiting the sick and administering to their relief, both spiritually and temporally, according to their wants.”

Meghan is joined by upcoming Awake and Ascend Keynote Speaker, Kevin Ball. Register HERE to attend his keynote address completely FREE! Topics of this discussion include:
Kevin Ball is not a fan of long bios full of grand achievements, past callings or reasons to "ooo and ahhh." Afterall, our perfect Father in Heaven ushered in the Restoration by introducing the most amazing being to ever live on this earth in just 7 perfect words. Surely that says something....
Kevin loves the Lord and strives to be worthy to be called His friend. He loves discussing the Gospel with like-minded souls and will choose that delicious pastime over almost anything, when I can. Kevin adores my family and takes his role as husband and father as a profound stewardship. He loves the temples of God (in all of their forms) and strives to find himself near them.
Kevin is originally from the Pacific Northwest and currently lives in Houston, Texas.

Following the prophet is hearing, learning, and following the patterns of those who have obtained the testimony of Jesus and seeking for the same witness and transformation.
All men and women are invited to become possessors of a knowledge and power of God that is otherworldly. It is the invitation of the fullness of the gospel to receive a fullness of Christ - in this life.
We can experience the miracles of redemption and unlock heaven and pull it down to this earth. This is our great calling and the Lord's invitation. Please bear with me as I witness to my understanding of these principles and let us orient ourselves to the heavens and ask the Lord in his great mercy to accept our desires to come to him and bear witness of his word. I have a personal witness of him and his doctrine, and I bear this testimony in these presentations as someone who claims no authority only insofar as the Holy Ghost bears witness to the principles of which I testify.

Meghan is joined by Jason Mow, who shares his story going from an honored veteran and civic servant to homeless, divorced, and destitute. Topics Include:
After serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Jason joined the U.S. Army and served as a Paratrooper. He advanced through the ranks to the position of Team Sergeant for the Army’s elite Special Reactions Team (SRT). He has experience and training in joint counter narcotics operations, protective services, counter terrorism, weapons and tactics training, and deployments to hostile areas.
After the Army, Jason began work as a civilian Police Officer. Jason has worked as a patrol officer, gang detective, narcotics detective, street crimes detective, and spent several years on SWAT as an operator and instructor. He is a certified police instructor in firearms, defensive tactics, tactical driving, and patrol rifle operations. Jason has twice been awarded the Law Enforcement Metal of Honor for gallant bravery in the line of duty and was recognized as the Community Services Officer of the Year for his department.
In addition to the military and police training, he has a Bachelor’s Degree in Education from Northern Arizona University and has graduated from the Arizona Law Enforcement Academy, the U.S. State Department International Narcotics and Law Enforcement program, and the United States Army Military Police Academy. He is also POST certified police instructor.
In 2006, Jason took time off from his Law Enforcement career and worked as a Civilian Contractor for the U.S. Government in Afghanistan. He worked at the National Police Academy in Herat as the lead Instructor. Jason also worked as the personal mentor for law enforcement operations to several regional Afghan government officials. He embedded with the US Army and traveled with small specialized teams of soldiers to remote locations throughout Afghanistan.
It was in Afghanistan that the first ideas for what would become the War Chapters series began to form. After a rocket attack on his base in Herat, he turned to the scriptures and found comfort in reading about the experiences of Captain Moroni. He wrote these scenes as they played out in his mind all throughout his time there.
Jason volunteers his time and skills doing humanitarian work, conducting personal recovery operations, medical aid, and security, in response to natural disasters around the world. He has deployed to assist during Hurricane Katrina and the earthquake in Haiti.

Welcome to the Joseph the Believer Series! We expect the first video in this new series, hosted by Josh Chandler, to be ready for release in about a month, with additional videos being released each month going forward. Each video will cover a different topic, in what we hope is an interesting and useful format, with a faithful, inside perspective on Joseph Smith.
The LDS Church's truth claims are in many cases inextricably tied to the occurrence of historical events. However, the way history is written and recorded leaves us with a lot less guidance and a lot less understanding of what "really happened" than we think we have.
As a result, we often think we know the "answers" when in fact almost everything we think we know is written by a secondhand witness that faces memory problems, doesn't have access to anyone's interior thoughts, is liable to mistake rumor for fact, and may not even have become aware of many important facts in the first place.
As if that weren't enough, we don't even know what we don't know. That is, we can be quite sure there mountains of facts and evidence about the life of Joseph Smith or the history of the LDS faith that for whatever reason never got recorded or about which we simply have never become aware. We can be certain as well that at least some of them, our of so many, would be significant enough to change some or all of our conclusions and perceptions.
This means we should be slow to draw conclusions from narrative histories, biographies, and academic papers, which can only be as good as the sources they are based on, and further contain their own sets of historical biases.
The alternative we hope to offer on Shattering Triangles will be a history written from, we hope, Joseph Smith's own perspective. It tries to ignore all of the noise and issues in the margins and just narrate his life as he evidently believed it to be shaped.

We know from D&C 121:34-36 that the thing that keeps us from being "chosen" is that our "hearts are set so much upon the things of this world." What we don't often realize is that the reason we don't get the higher blessings we have been counseled to seek is precisely this: we have become, without realizing it, card-carrying members of the great and abominable church.

One of the most fundamental "triangles" that must be shattered and reworked is our concept of salvation. It affects the way we understand almost everything else in the gospel. As we come to understand it in greater clarity, we see that all other gospel principles fall perfectly into place.
This video is only an introduction. Future segments will unpack the implications of this paradigm shift in greater detail and depth.

Meghan is pleased to share her recent address at the Isaiah Institute's online conference, "Israel's Coming Restoration." Her talk was originally entitled "Ascending from Jacob/Israel: Discerning Between Wheat and Tares."
In this address, Meghan juxtaposes the Parable of the Wheat and the Tares with Isaiah's depiction of a spiritual category called Jacob or Israel. She uses scripture to define levels of interpretations for "wheat" and "tares," describes the characteristics of both, and how these will manifest in how people experience the Day of Judgment.

Meghan is joined by Dr. Avraham Gileadi, to discuss his upcoming presentation at the Isaiah Institute's virtual conference, "Israel's Coming Restoration," to be held on Saturday, August 26th, 2023.
Register for this incredible event HERE!
Meghan Farner will also be speaking at the conference on the topic, "Ascending from Jacob/Israel: Discerning Between Wheat and Tares."
We hope you'll be able to attend!
Avraham Gileadi was born in the Netherlands during World War II. During the war, his father’s Dutch underground organization helped a New Zealand pilot escape to England. This led to the family emigrating to New Zealand in 1950. In 1968, Avraham Gileadi emigrated to Israel, where he learned Hebrew, attended rabbinical school and studied Jewish analytical methods. In 1973, he moved to the United States, married and raised a family of nine children.
Avraham graduated with a Ph.D. in Hebrew Bible and Ancient Near Eastern Studies under the tutelage of Professor Roland. K. Harrison of Wycliffe College, Toronto, Canada, with Professor Hugh Nibley as chairman. For his doctoral thesis (“A Bifid Division of the Book of Isaiah.” Diss., Brigham Young University, 1981), he analyzed a complex literary structure in the Book of Isaiah that radically impacts the book’s interpretation. Avraham and his wife live in Sequim, WA.
Meghan is joined by Tammi Garlick, who shares the emotional story of her son's sudden suicide, and the lessons she learned about God in the years following. Topics Include:
Hope in Christ YouTube Channel
Tammi Garlick grew up in Utah. She has always had an appreciation for all things beautiful and has enjoyed sharing this gift with others as an Interior designer. Tammi is a life-long member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and regards this membership as one of the sweetest gifts the Lord could have ever given her. She is married to her good husband Michael and they are the parents of four amazing children, three of whom are still living here on earth.
Through some very difficult challenges in her life, and especially the suicide of her beautiful son Joshua, Tammi has learned stunning truths concerning the love of God for ALL His children. Her greatest desire is to attempt to share some of what she has learned, so that it may, in some way, instill faith, hope and trust, for any one battling to hold on! Her message is…HOLD ON, HANG ON, AND NEVER EVER GIVE UP!!!
Meghan is joined by Jared Rubalcaba to discuss patterns of truth from the Ancient Egyptian civilization. Topics Include:
Esoteric Egypt, Vol 1 Online Course
Jared Rubalcaba is a co-owner of Forbidden Adventure -- a Tour Company that specializes in esoteric, religious, cultural, and historical travel to destinations all over the world. Their mission is to provide meaningful and transformative experiences to the intentional traveler looking to capture knowledge, wisdom, and life-changing self-discovery. Jared also serves as a guide for some of their most frequented destinations including Peru, England, Scotland, and of course, his beloved Egypt.
Jared received his Bachelor of Science in Outdoor Leadership Training; which has served as his foundation of Experience Management centered around learning and teaching others recreationally, professionally, and spiritually.
Jared has been an Instructor for Martial Arts, SCUBA, Rock Climbing, Wilderness Survival, Leadership Development Training, and a myriad of Guide experiences across the globe.
Jared’s professional career has been spent working primarily with Youth in Wilderness, Residential, or State Therapeutic Programs. His passion is the healing and self-discovery that can be found in nature and discovering one’s place in the cosmos. This bio should be accompanied by an image of him wearing a T-Shirt saying, “The Mountains are Calling, and I Must Go!”
For Jared the connection between nature and spiritual nourishment is inseparable.
As a young adult, Jared served a two-year Ecclesiastical Mission on the Kiribati (Kit-uh-bus) Islands; but his spiritual tutelage started at a much younger age and has lasted throughout his adult life—exploring various religions and scriptural texts from many sects of Christianity throughout history, Taoism, Buddhism, Indigenous creeds and rituals, Near Eastern Religions, Gnosticism, and Hermeticism. His years of religious studies have been the prelude to encountering the truths hidden in the symbols, rituals, hieroglyphs, and architecture of Egypt.
For the past several years his focus has been on the oldest religious text in the world—the Ancient Egyptian Pyramid Texts—and has recently completed his own translation of the Pyramid of Unas.
He married up to a woman entirely too good for him and together they have two deep-thinking and very funny boys.
Meghan is joined by Lee Ostler to discuss his insights into balancing multiple kinds of preparation. Topics Include:
Meghan is joined by Aaron and Julie Bujnowski for this discussion centered on the temple. Topics Include:
Discovering Your Temple Insights by Aaron and Julie Bujnowski
Aaron and Julie Bujnowski are high school sweethearts. They met in the high school marching band when they were living in Nashville, Tennessee. Aaron was a Church member, and, at the time they met, Julie was not a member. She began to attend Church meetings and activities with him, eventually joining the Church in 1989. Aaron served as a missionary in the Chile Concepción Mission from 1990 to 1992, and they married shortly after he returned in 1992 in the Atlanta Georgia Temple.
Both have served in numerous Church callings. Julie has served as a stake Relief Society president, a ward Young Women president, ward Primary president, and family history consultant, among others. Aaron has served as a bishop, stake high counselor, stake Sunday School presidency member, elders quorum president, Young Men president, ward Sunday School president, and seminary teacher, among others. He is currently serving as an ordinance worker in the Dallas Texas Temple.
They have both been actively involved in temple and family history work throughout their marriage. They have personally collected and performed ordinances for thousands of family names. Due to their efforts, Aaron and Julie have become the de facto family historians for both their families, which has offered them numerous opportunities to share the gospel with members of their extended family. They find great joy in the ordinances of the temple.
Julie has an associate of science degree in general studies and is a candidate to receive a bachelor of science degree in professional studies from Brigham Young University—Idaho. Aaron has bachelor and master of science degrees in chemical engineering from Brigham Young University—Provo, a master of business administration degree from the University of Texas at Austin, and is currently a candidate to receive a doctor of science degree in healthcare leadership from the University of Alabama at Birmingham.

Meghan is joined by Nate Christensen for a unique discussion, with topics including:
Nate Christensen has been in banking for 20 years and currently manages a local bank. He and his wife also have several rental properties, including the Manti Cottage on Airbnb. The Manti Cottage, built in 1851, is one of Utahs oldest surviving houses.
Nate has a deep love for church history, and collects church memorabilia. His book collection is over 75,000 books, most of which are simply stored away on pallets in a couple shipping containers .
He and his wife, Rebecca, have held food storage as an important aspect of their lives since we were married, storing away wheat under their bed while living in an upstairs attic apartment. Since then, their efforts have continued to expand. They have eight children and a very busy modern lifestyle. Their 1 acre homestead features over 50 fruit trees, a large geothermal off-grid Greenhouse (where they are growing bananas and citrus), two milk cows, meat rabbits, lambs, chickens, and, of course, the dog and cat.

Meghan is joined by Jacob Hess to discuss the unlimited power of God to heal - including healing our pervasive and persistent mental illnesses. Topics Include:
Jacob Hess is lead author of The Power of Stillness: Mindful Living for Latter-day Saints, a contributing writer at Deseret News, and a founder and former Editor at Public Square Magazine. He is a former board member of the National Coalition of Dialogue & Deliberation, and wrote You’re Not as Crazy as I Thought, But You’re Still Wrong with Phil Neisser, Dean at State University of New York.
Jacob’s life work is dedicated to making space for thoughtful, good-hearted people to find understanding (and affection) while exploring together the deepest of disagreements. He has been featured on This American Life and honored by Public Conversations Project. Jacob has also helped create online resources for pornography addiction (Fortify) and depression anxiety (Lift) that have reached 200K in 155 countries. He has published 14 peer reviewed articles, with a focus on long-term outcomes – helping people find deeper, more sustainable healing from depression and anxiety through his non-profit, the Council for Sustainable Healing.
Jacob and his sweetheart Monique live in Paradise, Utah, having some modest success raising four boys, and a baby girl – and proving to be reliably mediocre in raising chickens, ducks, goats and a vegetable garden that proves year after year that the earth is still cursed.

And to go deeper in some of the mental health conversations discussed today, check out the following:
And this article about pornography: "Whose Body Will Save Us from The Pain Inside?"
“The real problem of the Christian life comes where people do not usually look for it. It comes the very moment you wake up each morning. All your wishes and hopes for the day rush at you like wild animals. And the first job each morning consists simply in shoving them all back; in listening to that other voice, taking that other point of view, letting that other larger, stronger, quieter life come flowing in. And so on, all day. Standing back from all your natural fussings and frettings; coming in out of the wind.
We can only do it for moments at first. But from those moments the new sort of life will be spreading through our system: because now we are letting Him work at the right part of us.” Mere Christianity (1952; Harper Collins: 2001) 198-199.

Meghan is joined for this emotional and important conversation by Lark Dean Galley. Topics include:
Lark Galley spent 25 years in a corporate career before going out on her own as an entrepreneur. The suicides of her father and son reinforced what she'd been hearing from many of her high-achieving clients - they felt unworthy and incapable of reaching their goals. Lark went from coaching on the externals to focusing on why each person matters.
Lark is a published author, speaker, and trainer. Her goal is to help 100,000 people choose to stay on this planet and step into their greatness.
Lark served in the Stockhold, Sweden mission, taught gospel doctrine for seven years, and is currently the Emergency Preparedness Coordinator for her stake.

Evan Rogers was born in California with his fondest and earliest memory as a small child of going to Huntington Beach. His father took a job in Phoenix the summer of his 5th birthday, where he would grow up and graduate from high school in Mesa, Arizona many years later with his four siblings.
As a typical middle child, Evan has always enjoyed being the peacemaker, making new friends, and serving others. This love to serve eventually led him to serve a full-time mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Buenos Aires, North MIssion in Argentina as a twenty-year old, and within the year of returning from his mission, he met his wife on a blind date as a freshman in college and was married and sealed in the Mesa, Arizona Temple.
The Lord knew early on Evan’s love and gift to relate and bless the youth by having him called within the first 8 months of marriage to the bishopric to serve and support the youth in his family ward that led to serving in 2 other bishoprics back-to-back over the next 12 years. Later, he was called to serve on the High Council and then as a bishop. Currently, and back on the High Council over Family History for the youth, Evan serves as the 1st Councilor in the Stake Young Men’s Presidency in the Tempe Stake in Arizona.

Meghan is joined by author Vinney Tolman as he shares lessons learned when he died. Vinney was dead for over an hour and was put in a body bag before coming back to life. During his death and the subsequent days in a coma, Vinney was visited by a special guide and taught important truths to apply in our mortal journeys. Topics Include:
Vincent Todd Tolman was born in Arlington Tx and raised in California and Utah.
Growing up, Vinney garnered a passion for animals and nature. He would feel the most comfortable in the woods of the mountains by his home. He

In his lifetime, he has learned to speak German, Spanish, French, Russian, Cambodian, and Thai, but he keeps a conversational fluency in Vietnamese. He has traveled the world, visiting Europe, Russia, and Asia. He has also lived in Cambodia and Thailand.
Vinney has worked many jobs, including being a home builder, as well as many other construction trades. He has done many other trades and jobs including being a producer for TV and Movies. But his favorite job is being a light-worker, someone who helps others discover and find their own light and divine path.
Vinney and his soulmate Andrea are both passionate about their 2 amazing kids, and discovering new life adventures everyday.
Even though Vinney has lived in over 30 states over the years, he finds his home and life in the Desert Southwest. He loves spending his free time with his family traveling to all their favorite places. He is an avid meditator, and he meditates daily even if only for a few minutes. He loves connecting to spirit and anything that helps raise his frequency.
When Vinney is not working, you will find him traveling, adventuring, and playing with his kids. The most important things to Vinney are first and foremost his relationship to his creator, secondly loving his family, and all those who come into contact with him.

Meghan is thrilled to be joined by Mandy Green, scholar of Divine Femininity, in this special episode! The doctrine of Heavenly Mother is largely a mystery - but perhaps it doesn't have to be that way. Topics Include:
Mandy Green graduated from Brigham Young University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Humanities, and her love of that field has woven beautiful threads into all aspects of her life.
Mandy became fluent in Russian during her two year ecclesiastical mission to Moscow where she realized the power of understanding other languages. Since that time, she studied at Hebrew University in Jerusalem and has learned Biblical Hebrew and Koine Greek, which has allowed her to study scriptural texts in their originally written languages.
Mandy’s post-graduate studies have included a wide range of topics: Biblical Hebrew, New Testament Greek, the writings of Hugh Nibley, Egyptian religion, Hermeticism, Grail lore, and the Divine Feminine, with particular focus on Mary Magdalene.
Mandy is passionate about sharing her knowledge and has done so in many ways. She taught adult religion classes at BYU, has led tour groups in Israel, Jordan, Egypt, England, Scotland, and France, and is currently teaching at Project Illumination and writing and producing the podcast Reflecting Light.
Mandy loves to interact with students and fellow travelers and wants to help them experience all of the light and beauty there is to be found. Aside from her knowledge, she does this through her naturally friendly nature and humor. Her love of truth, light, knowledge, goddesses and flamingos (don’t forget the flamingos) makes for an unparalleled instruction experience.

Meghan is joined this week by Nicki Hansen to discuss observations and insights regarding the temple, and how it relates to our mortal journeys. Topics Include:
-The temple as a House of Learning
-Patterns and Sequences of the Lord
-The Hero’s Journey as our own Eternal Story
-Ancient Hebrew Wedding Traditions
-Noah’s Ark as a Temple
Nicole Hansen is currently a stay-at-home mom with two children. Her husband is a landscape architect. Nicole was born in Utah. She met her husband at Utah state where she studied Chemistry. She worked as a chemist for about 12 years, most of which time was spent in pharmaceuticals. She later taught at the college level, worked for the department of defense, and in the tech industry before her first child was born.
Nicole grew a love for numbers, and also dual careered in investing and real estate. Through all her experiences, she gained a love for identifying the Lord's hand in her life and seeing His ways and patterns unfold. She learned to Hear Him as a result of recognizing these patterns.
Nicole has recently embarked on a new journey of song-writing LDS Christian music. This was was not a skill she knew she had, but was taught it through a process of revelation. Her songs have played on Christian radio, including Utah's own soft Sunday Sounds. She tries to write and portray the emotions I have had in her own journeying toward Christ, as well as the patterns I see in His Word.
She is extremely passionate about the temple and has really grown to love spending most of her free time there. She says, "It truly is the greatest house of learning. I am passionate about each of us learning to grow into a temple and vessel of the Lord and a house where His presence can dwell. In my chemistry education, I focused my studies on Quantum Chemistry, Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry and throughout my career I gained an understanding that they were all interconnected. And spiritually related that to the connection of both body and spirit and the effects on one to the other. Which has further advanced my interest in our bodies being a temple."
Nicole recently started a YouTube channel titled "Patterns and Sequences" where we discuss the scriptures through a temple lens and tie a little bit of modern science and modern-day prophet revelation to help us all better learn to pattern our lives after our greatest exemplar Jesus Christ and to live after His holy order and the patterns as shown to us in His holy temple.

Meghan is joined in the first guest episode of 2023 with Craig Jenkins. The two discuss Craig's experiences with his late wife and the guidance we receive from loved ones who have left mortality. Topics include:
Craig Jenkins was born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah. He served a Church mission to the Northwest. Craig met Lorna while visiting mission friends in Seattle Washington. They share 5 children, 2 born in Washington, 1 in Salt Lake and 2 in Dallas TX. The family moved back to UT from Dallas in 1988 and have been there ever since.
Craig found his career in sales and marketing. He says, "I do ordinary things pretty well."
In 2014, Lorna was diagnosed with cancer and passed away just a few short months later. Despite her physical absence, her spirit and influence have been frequently felt by her husband and children as she has been able to serve them in unrestrained ways.
The blog aftertheyaregone.com was written in January of 2016, and was posted on son Joel's facebook page. It was viewed and shared by 56,000 people in all 50 states and almost a hundred countries in 24 hours. At the end of the first week the blog had garnered 130,000 views. Joel, who is the site administrator, reported recently that there are still around 100 new visits a month with no promotion.

Meghan is joined today with Todd Rindlisbaker, for this extremely vulnerable conversation. Topics include:
Todd Rindlisbaker is a son of the most-high God who has been called, chosen and trained from the very beginning to be a mighty valiant warrior in the army of the Lord Jesus Christ. He has been sent here to earth to be a father and husband to serve alongside some of the choicest spirits, who are also mighty warriors, in the battle for good to prepare the world for the return of our Lord and Savior and usher in the millennial era.
Todd was raised on a farm/ranch in the mountains of South East Idaho, where he learned to ride motorcycles and tractors at six and drive a truck at seven years old. He grew up as a member of the church and served a mission in Southern California. He graduated from Ricks College and Utah State University with Mechanical Engineering Degrees. His work as a consulting engineer and speaker has given him the rich experience of visiting five continents and a Delta Million Mile leather luggage tag. Todd is the father to four children and two step-children and husband to his wonderful wife of seven years. He builds housing and helps care for his wife's chickens and rabbits, the number of which may change daily.
Todd's personal journey to establish a deeper relationship with the Savior has given him experiences that increased his understanding, compassion and love for others who don't fit the idealistic Latter-Day Saint mold. On that journey, the Lord is teaching him and has led him to study about the atonement, agency, the Lord's laws of health including mental, physical, and spiritual aspects, temple ordinances and symbolism, and the plan of salvation.

Meghan is pleased to share Tony Aguilar's story in this unique episode. Topics Include:
Tony Aguilar is a 2nd generation Filipino American. He had discovered throughout the years that his upbringing was filled with a variety of traumas including coming from a broken family, having a father in prison for 25 years off-and-on before passing away from addiction, struggling through school, sexual molestation, experimenting with illegal drugs, etc.
Tony allowed God to enter his story in 2002, and never turned back! He was baptized in 2006, married in the temple to his best friend, and is the father of 2 precious little girls.
Tony's goals are to help children who have come from a similar background as he has, and to build and uplift the family unit. He graduated from Cal Poly Pomona in 2019 with a BA in Sociology and was accepted to multiple Social Work Programs to start the fall of 2020 prior to Covid. He put that education on hold to instead teach and care for his children during the pandemic. His goal is to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and start a non profit in my local town of Pomona, although he is open to God having other plans for him.

Meghan is joined today by her husband, McKay, for this special episode! One of the observations we have made this year is how rare it is for spouses to be in lock-step on the spiritual path. Much more often, one spouse is ahead / behind the other. In this episode, the couple share their experiences throughout their relationship and how they have both relied on the Lord to create additional unity in their marriage. Topics include:
Mckay Farner is originally from Colorado. He and Meghan dated in high school previous to his serving a mission in Bacolod Philippines. The two were engaged 5 days after he returned home, and were married three months later.
Mckay graduated from Brigham Young University - Idaho with a degree in Communications, emphasis in Public Relations. He then went on to become a real estate agent serving the East Idaho region. He is currently a Seminary student teacher with the hope of being offered a full-time Seminary teaching job in 2023. He is a Priests Quorum Advisor and absolutely loves working with the young men.
Mckay and Meghan have 3 adorable kiddos.

Meghan is joined by Cameron Mayer, a fellow "young" disciple, to discuss some of the unique perspectives gained through faithfully following Jesus Christ. Topics Include:
Cameron Mayer was born in Texas, and moved to St. Louis, MO when he was 12. He met his now-wife, Mikayla, in 7th grade, although she initially friend-zoned him until after his mission. Cameron served in the Salt Lake City West Mission, speaking Spanish. He afterwards studied Psychology at BYU, and graduated in April 2022. Cameron and his wife recently moved back to St. Louis and he is now working as a marketer for a Lasik eye doctor.
Cameron has always had a love for the gospel, and the search for truth. In his experience, there is nothing more sweet or fulfilling. He has found no greater treasure trove of truth than in the restored gospel. He says, "the more I've exercised diligence in coming to understand the mysteries og God adn who HE is, the greater depth and beautiful I found. The gospel really is inexhaustible, and what's more is that truth isn't just an abstract thing, but a living person. The Lord Jesus literally is the truth and as you come to know it, you are really coming to know Him."
Cameron is also the host of The Cause of Zion podcast, which he says is geared to all those seeking for truth, whether they be struggling with their understanding or testimony of the restored gospel, or if they've cultivated a deep and abiding passion for it and are ready to dig deeper. His goal is to convey the beauty of the gospel and reawaken the faith of his listeners.

Meghan is joined by Cameron Briggs to discuss the sign of the times found in Acts 2:17 "‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams." Topics include:
Cameron Briggs was born and raised in Malta, Idaho. He served a mission in Torreón, México from 2008-2010.
He's a big BYU Education Week enthusiast and lover of all learning. Temple doctrine, symbolism and history are among his favorite subjects. Cameron currently serves as the Temple and Family History Leader in his ward and also in the Twin Falls Temple.

Meghan is joined by author and coach Jeff Buehner to share his story and an entirely new perspective on faith, agency, and creation. Topics Include:
Jeff's knowledge is such an interesting take on true gospel principles we know and how to apply them in a brand new way! We hope you find inspiration on how to positively impact your current situation, especially when it comes to preparing to exercise faith and priesthood to work future miracles, and in becoming the kind of person the Lord needs you to be before He will return.
Jeff Buehner is a husband, father, successful businessman, speaker, mentor and author. He was raised in Heber Valley in Utah where he was a good ol' boy who rode bare-back bronc in the rodeo and knew the value of hard work. A near-death experience during a fateful ride was a pivotal moment that helped him understand some important gospel truths and changed the course of his life.
Jeff served a mission in Germany, married his sweetheart Joni, had 3 boys and started a concrete business to provide for his family. Another pivotal moment occurred for Jeff 28 years ago when he came across the ancient writings of a Sultan who lived in Mali Africa in the 1300's. These writings told of a near-death experience that changed another life and the entire Mali kingdom. Sultan Musa's writing had a profound influence on Jeff, who has gone on to teach others the powerful concepts that helped him understand how the world works, develop his faith and have a personal relationship with God. Musa and Jeff's stories are found in Jeff's book, The Sultan's Seven Secrets.
Jeff currently resides in St. George, Utah where he teaches Sunday School to some lucky 14-year-olds.

Meghan is joined by Julie Hawkes to discuss scriptural principles and examples for combatting anxiety. Specific discussion points include:
Julie Hawkes is the creator and owner of Life Balance, and is a mentor, speaker, and energy coach.
She has helped hundreds of people reconnect to their hearts and God, have better relationships, manage anxiety and depression, and reach their goals. She is passionate about what she does and gets so excited about the changes clients see in just a short time after working with her.
Julie's deep love of the scriptures began 20 years ago when she got called to be the gospel doctrine teacher and panicked because she didn't know or understand what she was required to teach. When it was time to teach the Old Testament she stood in front of the class and asked them to pray for her because she felt like reading the Old Testament was like trying to read and understand Russian, and she didn't understand any of it! As she studied she learned so much and felt so much peace that it fundamentally changed her life and created a lifelong love of the scriptures and the answers that can be found within.
On a personal note, Julie was raised in South-East Idaho and has seven children and one grandson. She met her husband at the local grocery store and was tricked into going out with him (thank heavens!). They have been married almost 31 years. She loves sushi, chocolate, and mountain biking.

Phill Wright spent over 30 years in finance and banking and is well-known in Utah for his political involvement. He became the executive director of Keep My Voice, a non-profit organization dedicated to defending the First Amendment rights of the Constitution. During his political volunteerism, in 2012 he wrote his first novel, Not Without Mercy the Black
Death, the heart-wrenching story of a family trapped in the middle of the Black Plague in 1348.His first book became a successful amazon best-seller. Two years later he followed up with a second book called, Not Without Mercy the Passage Home. The books detail how this family stayed together and overcame the most deadly plague in world history. In 2018 he wrote a non-fiction book called Man Against Messiah, the Sanhedrin Plot Against
Jesus, becoming an Amazon best-selling book. This book details the names and lives of the
actual Sanhedrin men who engaged in the illegal trial that resulted in the crucifixion of Jesus
Christ.
Phill taught Gospel Doctrine over 15 years in three different Wards in three states. He also taught early Morning Seminary for six years. In 2020, Phill became a Patriarch for his Church and decided to step away from the political fray.
His new book, Return From Rysa, co-authored by Richard Nelson, became an instant best-seller, shooting to number one in its category on Amazon. The book was written as a Religious-Fantasy-Fiction that teaches the Plan of Salvation from a benevolent alien race perspective. He wrote the book to reach out to the many millennials who are leaving the Church and to help people discover that God created worlds without number, and
he placed his children on all those worlds. This Earth is where the Son of God was born, brought the Gospel, was crucified, and resurrected for ALL of God’s children on worlds without number.
On December 10th of this year, Phill will be married to his sweetheart Shaun McKinney Wright for forty years. They are the parents of seven children and grandparents of 13.

Drake Auna joins Meghan to discuss the various patterns and symbolism that give meaning and insight to the temple. Drake shares his story of progression, beginning with scripture study and principles of seeking revelation, to repentance and forgiveness, and through the sacred hallways of our modern tabernacles. He also shares interesting perspectives on the Hawaiian culture and how traditions reflect the native heritage of reformed Hebrew/Egyptian language, and a promised "white God" who is to come from the East. Drake's deep study of symbolism, languages, and the representative pattern of "line upon line, precept upon precept" will leave listeners with lots to think about and a yearning to return to the temple and strive to see the upward-facing ladders of spiritual truths there to teach us how to become like our Savior.
Drake Auna is originally from Hawaii. He grew up a member of the Church and one of eight total children in his family. Drake served a full-time mission in Sacramento, CA speaking Spanish before returning to BYU-Hawaii. He studied Social Work in school before pursuing his career as an electrician. He also owns his own entertainment company in Utah where he and his family are now based. Drake met his wife Kylie at BYU-Hawaii and the couple are expecting their third child, a son to join their two daughters, later in May.
Marti Grant joins us for a deep and impactful discussion about finding your personal mission, especially through the challenges God grants you. Meghan and Marti discuss principles related to how to find your mission, or the work the Lord would have you perform to bless and benefit your own life, and the lives of those around you. They draw on personal experiences to illustrate how your experiences, interests, education, and inspiration can point you in the direction God would have you go.
Marti and Meghan also dive deep into the power our covenants can offer us in performing meaningful work. What does it mean to sacrifice? What does it mean to consecrate? When does being "anxiously engaged" turn into consecration? What blessings do we sometimes leave on the table by not allowing the Lord to make more of us than we are by ourselves? All this and more in this thought-provoking episode!
Marti Grant helps women improve their mental health and emotional resilience so that they can create joy for themselves no matter what life brings them. As a wife and mother of three, she likes to joke that she runs a residential treatment center for emerging adults. The very first thing she remembers having a testimony of is that God answers prayers, and that connection with Heavenly Father is what has carried her through all of her trials. You can find Marti at 5minutesbetter.com and on Instagram @marti.grant.

We are joined this week by Dr. Jon Skalski to discuss his conversion story and the role of scripture in understanding the last days and preparing for the Savior. Meghan and Jon talk about the importance and patterns of the Bible, The Book of Mormon, and Doctrine and Covenants in communicating the wins and losses of peoples preparing to meet Christ in the past, and using these examples to prepare to more successfully meet Him in the future. The conversation includes new insights on the parable of the ten virgins, food storage as an act of faith and spiritual preparation, the psychology of modern-day tribalism and the echoes of the ancient Nephite civilization we see therein, and how we can "treasure up the word of God" as our primary tool to understanding these challenging times, and becoming ready to see Christ perhaps in our lifetimes.

In this episode, Meghan compares the circumstances of Enoch's day with living in the Last Days. She analyzes how we can expect to similarly build New Jerusalem, the Latter-day Zion, based on the pattern established by Enoch and his people as they built their Holy City, the Ancient Zion. She flushes out what we can anticipate in the future based on modern revelation on this topic.
In Signs in Real Times, Meghan speaks on the sign that the people in the Last Days would be "forbidden to marry". She shares recently published articles that highlight the modern movement to discount marriage as a social construct that can be done away with or rewritten. Meghan emphasizes the counsel of prophets and apostles in regards to defending the divine institution of marriage.

In this special guest feature, Brother Ross Baron teaches the origins of the 12 tribes of Israel, including what made Abraham chosen as ancient patriarch and as one who would covenant with Jehovah. We discuss what "the hearts turning to the fathers" actually means, and how we are a part of this ancient, you could even say eternal, legacy of obligation to and blessings from the Lord. Brother Baron shares his experiences while teaching at the BYU Jerusalem Center, including the miraculous events that took place to establish it, and which continue to occur in that sacred place. He gives his thoughts and historical context to help us better understand and respond to modern-day struggles in the Middle East. Brother Baron discusses the ancient symbolism and responsibilities of specific tribes, with emphasis on Levi, Ephraim, and Judah, and how all tribes are fulfilling their responsibilities in the Last Days. Finally, we talk about what can be expected in the days ahead for members of these tribes - also known as the "noble and great ones". DO NOT miss this incredible conversation - it will leave you convinced of your own great heritage, and will surely inspire you to boldly accept your own responsibilities to fulfill the covenants of the House of Israel.
Brother Ross Baron was born and raised in Southern California. He joined the Church when he was 18, as a convert from Judaism, and served a mission to Argentina, Buenos Aires South which was divided and then served in Argentina Bahia Blanca. When he returned home, Brother Baron met, fell in love with, and married Kathleen Ann Bolton in the Los Angeles Temple. They have nine children (five boys and four girls).
Dr. Baron received a Bachelor’s degree from BYU-Provo in Finance, a Master’s degree and a Ph.D. from the University of Southern California (USC) in Religion and Social Ethics. He was involved in business and entrepreneurship before going to work as a full-time Institute Director CES Coordinator in Southern California at the Glendora and Claremont Institutes for the Church. After twelve years as an Institute Director and Coordinator, He came to teach at BYU-Idaho’s Religion and Philosophy department in the summer of 2005 and commands an impressive 4.7 on Rate My Professor.
Bro. Baron and his family also lived in Jerusalem Aug 2018-Aug 2019 where he served as a visiting professor at the BYU Jerusalem center.
Bro. Baron has had a plethora of interesting opportunities throughout his life including swimming across the San Francisco Bay for the Escape from Alcatraz triathlon, winning a stove, a mop, and a barrel sauna on The Price is Right, playing the drums with institute students at the Hard Rock Cafe in Los Angeles, and playing chess in the US open Tournament in 1991, where he first played Arnold Denker, who had previously beat Bobby Fisher, about which he says he was worked.
Brother Baron represents an incredible example of what it is to boldly live the gospel, as he has often spoken at Christian colleges and universities, educating other sects about our faith. He once represented the Church on a History Channel special, and He also has led community firesides geared towards advocating for the church and which were attended by thousands.
