Have you ever wondered why there are so many Christian churches, all teaching different things? If Jesus Christ established one Church, what happened to it? And why do members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe it had to be restored instead of just reformed?

In this episode of Where It Starts, I share a personal experience that completely changed how I see the Restoration—how a Book of Mormon I was given nearly a decade ago led me to realize that God had been planting seeds in my life long before I was ready to see them.

We’ll dive into: ✨ How Christ’s original Church was lost after the apostles were killed ✨ Why the Restoration was necessary—not just a new interpretation of Christianity ✨ How God has never abandoned His children, even during the apostasy ✨ The moment He opened the heavens again and called a prophet ✨ What the Restoration means for you, right now, in your own faith journey

I don’t have a testimony of everything yet, and maybe you don’t either. That’s okay. Faith is a journey, and no one is expected to understand it all at once. But I do know that God is still speaking—and He invites all of us to seek the truth for ourselves.

So if you’ve ever questioned where you fit in, if you’ve ever felt lost in all the different voices about God, this episode is for you.

🎧 Join me as we unpack the Restoration and what it means for each of us today.

Welcome to the very first episode of Where It Starts! 🎉

I’m Lauren Bresnihan, and I created this podcast because starting a faith journey can feel overwhelming. As a recent LDS convert living in the UK, I’ve felt all the highs and lows—excitement, doubts, confusion, and those quiet moments where God reassures you that you’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

This episode is all about the why: ✨ Why I felt inspired to share my story ✨ Why this podcast matters ✨ Why, no matter where you’re starting, your faith journey is important

I’ll share the moments that led me here, the spiritual promptings I’ve felt, and my hope to create a space where others just beginning their journey can find encouragement, community, and light.

If you’re feeling unsure, scared, or just looking for someone who gets it—this episode is for you.

🎧 Tune in now, and let’s start this journey together.
