In episode 185 - Another Take On Relationships, I share some insights I've been reflecting on when it comes to relationships. I've noticed that a large portion of my podcast episodes tend to focus on relationships, and I think that's because relationships are such a fundamental part of our lives, whether it's our companions, our families, our coworkers, or the people we interact with on a daily basis.

I've been pondering the purpose behind why we're asked to be in families and serve in congregations. I believe it's because these relationships provide us with opportunities to learn about ourselves. When we interact with people who have different backgrounds, experiences, and ways of doing things, it can either drive us apart or serve as our greatest teachers. I encourage listeners to see the people in their lives, even the ones who may be challenging, as teachers rather than problems. Our differences don't have to be a source of conflict; they can be a chance for growth and transformation.

Ultimately, I believe the key is to focus on our own personal responsibility and growth, rather than trying to "fix" a relationship or a companionship. By working on ourselves and changing our own thoughts and feelings, we can positively impact our relationships and create more harmony and understanding. I hope this episode inspires you to embrace the relationships in your life as opportunities for learning and self-discovery.

Episode 183 - Light in the Vessels, this Christmas episode is all about finding light in the darkness. As I've been preparing for holiday concerts and reflecting on the story of the brother of Jared, I've been struck by the powerful symbolism of the Lord causing the stones to shine in the darkness.

Even when life feels tumultuous, heavy, and disorienting, Christ's light can still shine. The tempests we face are often what's moving us towards the promised land, even if we can't see the full picture. I've had to really ponder whether I trust that the challenges in my life and the lives of those I love are part of God's plan to get us where we need to go.

Ultimately, I've realized that Jesus Christ is the only one who can truly light our vessels and provide the eternal perspective we need to find peace, even in our darkest moments. This Christmas, my prayer is that we can all fall on our knees before the Savior, trusting that He will catch us and guide us safely to our promised lands, in His own time. He is the light that can dispel any darkness.
