Amy is joined by advocate Allison Dayton, founder of Lift & Love, to discuss the god-sized holes left behind when LGBTQIA+ people are forced out of their faith traditions, plus how the LDS Church can be changed through love and role modelling to embrace its gay family.Donate to Breaking Down PatriarchyAllison Dayton started the Lift & Love Foundation to support LGBTQ individuals and their families in the Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Allison lost her brother, who was gay, to suicide at the same time her 17-year-old son was coming out. Looking for resources to help her family, she couldn't find anything that embraced her religious beliefs and her son's divine identity. Lift and Love has grown to fill that much-needed space supporting thousands of individuals and families as they navigate their unique journeys of protecting their identity or that of their precious children and integrating their new reality into their devotion to Jesus Christ. Allison is a writer, speaker, including at BYU Women's Conferences. In 2022 she moderated an LGBTQ Conversation Circle at the UN Women's Conference. Allison and her husband, Kenn, live in the foothills of Salt Lake City, Utah, have three grown children, a son-in-law and a granddaughter, Georgia, who rules their world.

The real church is built upon the rock of revelation of Jesus Christ!

Kristy Wheelwright Taylor serves as the board secretary for the Wilford Woodruff Papers Foundation and helps with transcription and writing on the Wilford Woodruff Papers Project. Kristy's new book is called 'Prepare Me For Thy Use: Lessons From Wilford Woodruff's Mission Years.'I wanted to speak to Kristy about the many marvellous stories of Wilford Woodruff, the fourth President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Wilford was famous for record-keeping and so we have so many documents showing us who Wilford really was and the incredible impact he has had on Latter-day Saints past, present, and future. Some highlights from this episode include the earliest audio recording in Latter-day Saint history, Wilford's many close shaves with death, and the miracles he experienced while serving a mission in England.--You can find more of Kristy's work at the following links:- https://www.deseretbook.com/product/P6080733.html- https://wilfordwoodruffpapers.org/Follow For All The Saints on social media for updates and inspiring content:www.instagram.com/forallthesaintspodhttps://www.facebook.com/forallthesaintspod/For All The Saints episodes are released every Monday on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and more:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVDUQg_qZIU&list=UULFFf7vzrJ2LNWmp1Kl-c6K9Qhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3j64txm9qbGVVZOM48P4HS?si=bb31d048e05141f2https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/for-all-the-saints/id1703815271If you have feedback or any suggestions for topics or guests, connect with Ben & Sean via hello@forallthesaints.org or DM on InstagramConversations to Refresh Your Faith.For All The Saints podcast was established in 2023 by Ben Hancock to express his passion and desire for more dialogue around faith, religious belief, and believers' perspectives on the topics of our day.

When guilt feels heavier than hope, can forgiveness still rewrite our story?Episode 3 of our 5-part miniseries "Faith to Stay" tackles “Repentance & Forgiveness”—a burning topic in Latter-Day Lights host & founder Scott Brandley's new book about navigating life's fiercest spiritual storms. How are repentance and forgiveness interconnected, and how do we walk through them to achieve lasting peace?This Sunday, we welcome back prison therapist Kellen Winslow and excommunicated bishop Dave Higham. With the overarching testimony that “repentance isn't punishment; rather, it's relief,” they compare courtroom justice to eternal mercy, swap stories of self-forgiveness, and reveal how seeing people in the same way God sees them can turn even the most "unforgivable" actions into miracles of compassion.If you've ever wondered whether you're too far gone—or have struggled to forgive someone who seems beyond reach—tune in as we navigate these two sides of the same coin, and discover why every new day is an invitation to begin again.*** Please SHARE Dave and Kellen's stories and help us spread hope and light to others. ***To WATCH: this episode, visit: https://youtu.be/GoPQtfoFEo4 -----To READ Scott's book “Faith to Stay,” visit: https://www.faithtostay.com/To WATCH Dave's episode, visit: https://youtu.be/hfMj1JDSgLgTo WATCH Kellen's episode, visit: https://youtu.be/BXFYBqDQAfg-----Keep updated with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/latter.day.lights/Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/latterdaylightsAlso, if you have a faith-promoting or inspiring story, or know someone who does, please let us know by going to https://www.latterdaylights.com and reaching out to us.

How do you keep your faith when questions feel louder than answers?This Sunday, episode 2 of our 5-part “Faith to Stay” miniseries dives into the idea of “Primary vs. Secondary Questions”—a core principle from Latter-Day Lights host and founder Scott Brandley's new book on weathering spiritual storms.Joined by returning guests—near-death survivor, Jerry Paskett, and Catholic-turned-Latter-day Saint, Dr. Fred Dodini—Scott and Alisha unpack Elder Lawrence E. Corbridge's landmark talk “Stand Forever.” Together, they explore which questions actually anchor belief, why some doubts derail discipleship, and how personal revelation outshines internet rabbit holes. Their candid stories—from bedside miracles to late-night theological wrestling—show how holding onto just one rock-solid truth can steady an entire life.If competing voices have ever made you wonder whether the Gospel holds up, this conversation will help you tune out the noise and lean into the answers that matter most.*** Please SHARE Jerry and Fred's stories and help us spread hope and light to others. ***To WATCH this episode, visit: https://youtu.be/vXSMaQ8MinE-----To READ Scott's book “Faith to Stay,” visit: https://www.faithtostay.com/To WATCH Jerry's first episode, visit: https://youtu.be/ngNslua0nM4To WATCH Jerry's second episode, visit: https://youtu.be/NyaeMdFxEXATo WATCH Fred's episode, visit: https://youtu.be/Hc8ZKu-xC_0To WATCH Elder Lawrence Corbridge's talk, "Stand Forever," visit: https://speeches.byu.edu/talks/lawrence-e-corbridge/stand-for-ever/To READ Dr. Fred Dodini's book, "Shine Brighter," visit: https://www.amazon.com/Shine-Brighter-Choosing-Greater-Clarity/dp/1631953346To LEARN MORE about Scott's beneficiary, "The Marcovia Project," visit: https://themarcoviaproject.orgTo WATCH The Marcovia Project's Latter-Day Lights episode, visit: https://youtu.be/E1zdsd9vLhM-----Keep updated with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/latter.day.lights/Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/latterdaylightsAlso, if you have a faith-promoting or inspiring story, or know someone who does, please let us know by going to https://www.latterdaylights.com and reaching out to us.

I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.   American Conservative University Podcast (ACU) is not an official representative for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

Melinda Wheelwright Brown is an author and educator, her newest book is called 'An Endowment of Love: Embracing Christ's Covenant Way of Living and Loving'.I wanted to speak to Melinda because I learn a lot about the way she views the Temple Endowment, an important part of worship in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Some highlights from this episode include how to see Jesus's example in the covenants we make in the House of the Lord, why the phrase 'going through the Temple' isn't adequate, and how Latter-day Saints can make going to the Temple as warm and exciting as visiting their grandparents as a child. --You can find more of Melinda's work at the following links:- https://www.deseretbook.com/product/P6078337.html- https://www.ldsliving.com/melinda-wheelwright-brown- https://bravelikeeve.org/about-us/Follow For All The Saints on social media for updates and inspiring content:www.instagram.com/forallthesaintspodhttps://www.facebook.com/forallthesaintspod/For All The Saints episodes are released every Monday on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and more:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVDUQg_qZIU&list=UULFFf7vzrJ2LNWmp1Kl-c6K9Qhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3j64txm9qbGVVZOM48P4HS?si=bb31d048e05141f2https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/for-all-the-saints/id1703815271If you have feedback or any suggestions for topics or guests, connect with Ben & Sean via hello@forallthesaints.org or DM on InstagramConversations to Refresh Your Faith.For All The Saints podcast was established in 2023 by Ben Hancock to express his passion and desire for more dialogue around faith, religious belief, and believers' perspectives on the topics of our day.

What if the darkest parts of your past were the very things God used to lead you home?On today's episode of Latter-day Lights, we meet Becky Sheffer—a woman whose childhood was marked by addiction, neglect, trauma, and instability. But through it all, small miracles began to appear—moments that quietly pointed her toward something greater.From squatting in abandoned homes and riding across the country in a broken-down car full of chickens, to living off-grid in a makeshift compound in the Utah desert, Becky's life was anything but ordinary. And yet, it was the Book of Mormon that helped her change the trajectory of her life, break the cycle of abuse, overcome a difficult learning disability, and completely rewrite her story.If you've ever wondered whether Christ really shows up in the mess, Becky's story will leave no doubt.*** Please SHARE Becky's story and help us spread hope and light to others. ***To WATCH this episode, visit: https://youtu.be/J8ZuGOeCOmc-----To READ Becky's book, A Girl Named White Cloud, visit: https://www.amazon.com/Girl-Named-White-Cloud-darkness/dp/B0DRSXR5JX-----Keep updated with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/latter.day.lights/Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/latterdaylightsAlso, if you have a faith-promoting or inspiring story, or know someone who does, please let us know by going to https://www.latterdaylights.com and reaching out to us.

How does a parent stand back up when every corner of home echoes with grief?For EMT, educator, and loving mother Larissa Dagley, tragedy began at her teen son Cody's shooting incident—a moment that left Cody drowning in relentless nightmares and bullying for the remainder of his life. Overwhelmed by guilt and depression, Cody took his own life almost 2 years later, plunging Larissa into a darkness so crushing, she feared her heart would literally break. Yet in the midst of excruciating grief, Larissa trusted in a Savior who heals more than sins: He mends shattered souls and whispers hope into the loneliest nights.In this heart-wrenching episode of Latter-day Lights, Larissa recounts tender mercies, spiritual impressions, and Cody's messages from the afterlife that proved Christ never left her side. Her story offers hard-won lessons on suicide awareness, the power of compassionate words, and the healing reach of the Atonement.If you or a loved one is wrestling with depression or suicidal ideation, Larissa's witness reminds us that no grief is too deep, no mistake too final, and no family too wounded for the Savior's unfailing light. Tune in and learn how, even after the worst pain imaginable, Christ can guide us from storm-tossed anguish to a sunrise of lasting peace.*** Please SHARE Larissa's story and help us spread hope and light to others. ***To WATCH this episode, visit: https://youtu.be/7KzVWU4Oi80 -----Keep updated with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/latter.day.lights/Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/latterdaylightsAlso, if you have a faith-promoting or inspiring story, or know someone who does, please let us know by going to https://www.latterdaylights.com and reaching out to us.#LDSPodcast #ChristianStories #latterdaylights

When a father's greatest nightmare strikes his family not once but twice, can Heaven still find a way to spark hope?Idaho rancher, husband, and devoted father Eldon Buchanan returns to Latter-day Lights to share the sacred tender mercies that steadied him after losing his son to suicide: Feeling the invisible strength of his son hoisting boulders for his memorial, a climb up Mount Borah where the Northern Lights felt like an embrace from Heaven, and a New Year's graveside visit where impossibly perfect snowflakes drifted down on him, as though signed by his boys' own hands.In this raw retelling, Eldon shows how the Savior's love reaches through depression's deepest shadows with quiet, unmistakable reminders: You are seen, and no child slips from His grasp.If you—or someone you love—are wrestling with grief or suicidal despair, Eldon's witness offers heartfelt advice and uplifting reasons to keep going: Even shattered hearts can experience miracles, and sorrow can be transformed into an unshakable testimony—that Christ never leaves His wounded ones alone.*** Please SHARE Eldon's story and help us spread hope and light to others. ***To WATCH this episode, visit: https://youtu.be/9IqH01jFAZc-----To WATCH Eldon's first episode on Latter-Day Lights, visit: https://youtu.be/3phtG9B-2GkTo WATCH Eldon's second episode on Latter-Day Lights, visit: https://youtu.be/aSJ6p0aDI00-----Keep updated with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/latter.day.lights/Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/latterdaylightsAlso, if you have a faith-promoting or inspiring story, or know someone who does, please let us know by going to https://www.latterdaylights.com and reaching out to us.

When pillars of certainty crumble, is it possible to rebuild something even stronger in their place?When two trusted ward members announced they were leaving the Church, newly called bishop Scott Brandley was rocked to the core. Overnight, the man called to strengthen spirituality in others found himself wrestling with his own doubts, spiralling into a crisis of faith, and stripping his testimony down to five essential questions around God, Joseph Smith, and The Book of Mormon.In this special milestone episode of Latter-day Lights, the tables turn as beloved host Scott steps into the guest chair. With candor and humility, he shares the origins of how prayer-filled walks, sleepless study sessions, and Heaven-sent impressions rebuilt his faith while igniting two unexpected missions along the way: launching this very podcast, "Latter-Day Lights," and penning his new upcoming book, “Faith to Stay.”From shepherding a ward through turbulent times, to teaming up with co-host and good friend Alisha Coakley to invite growth, instill faith, and inspire others, Scott's journey is proof that God can use cracked foundations to plant pillars of testimony. It reminds us all that even in our most fragile moments, He is plotting our legacy behind the scenes.*** Please SHARE Scott's story and help us spread hope and light to others. ***To WATCH this episode, visit: https://youtu.be/wJUm-dyO7tk-----To WATCH our Marcovia Project episode, visit: https://youtu.be/E1zdsd9vLhMTo DONATE to The Marcovia Project, visit: https://themarcoviaproject.org/-----Keep updated with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/latter.day.lights/Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/latterdaylightsAlso, if you have a faith-promoting or inspiring story, or know someone who does, please let us know by going to https://www.latterdaylights.com and reaching out to us.

When years of crippling addiction tighten its grip, can a sliver of lasting change still exist?For carpenter, devoted husband, and former addict Orlando Mora, the path out of darkness was illuminated not just through sobriety and faith, but by a heaven-sent “gift of dreams.” From his first prayer of desperation to the day he opened the door to two unexpected missionaries, Orlando discovered that God's guidance comes in many forms—sometimes through gentle impressions of the Spirit, and sometimes through vivid dreams that bring clarity, comfort, and renewed purpose.In this uplifting episode of Latter-day Lights, Orlando recounts the power of divine intervention that guided him from a dark “basement” of hopelessness to the bright promise of a new beginning. From his first steps into a detox center, to the moment he felt Christ's arms around him at the Mesa Arizona Temple, Orlando's story testifies that no one is beyond the reach of God's grace. Even in our deepest struggles, we can find ourselves led by the hand of a loving Savior who has never once left our side.Orlando's journey brings hope to anyone seeking to turn their life around.

Section 20 - Historical Background: Following the first vision to the young boy Joseph Smith, God gradually proceeded to work towards the establishment of his church. The angel Moroni was sent to Joseph, then to the hidden gold plates to be translated and published as the Book of Mormon; the Aaronic Priesthood was restored followed by the Melchizedek priesthood. This section lays the foundation for the setting up of the governing laws of the Kingdom of God in these latter days. Recap: The precise day is given when the organization of the church is to occur; the names of the first 2 elders are announced; duties of the members of the church and of the quorums of the priesthood; specific wording of the baptismal and sacrament prayers are given. Section 21 - Historical Background: In fulfillment of God's commandment (see section 20), on April 6, 1830, the leaders of the church met together at the home of Peter Whitmer Sr to organize and establish the church in accordance to the laws of the nation. Six men were required to sign the corporate papers to give the church official status in the state of New York. The log cabin was crowded with families and friends who all raised their hands in approval of Joseph Smith as the first Elder of the Church and Oliver Cowdery as the second, and both as presiding officers. After these formalities were completed and the papers signed, the people traveled 6 miles to Seneca Lake. Those who desired to become members of the church were baptized. After returning to the Whitmer home in Fayette, this revelation was received. Recap: Records need to be maintained in the church; Joseph Smith will be called a seer, translator, prophet, apostle and elder of the church. Members of the church should look to the prophet for direction as if given by the Lord Himself; Oliver Cowdery to serve under Joseph to preach the gospel to the world. Section 22 - Historical Background: Previous to the official organization of the church, people had been baptized for the remission of sins. Now it was required to be baptized again, this time as members of God's church. Some people objected to needing baptism again. To resolve the confusion, Joseph received this revelation. Recap: All unauthorized covenants, including baptism, are null and void and “availeth him nothing” but must be done as authorized by God. The very reason for the restoration of the Gospel was to replace the “dead works” and unauthorized and obsolete ordinances of the past.
