We all have human identities and eternal identities, and the two don't always match up. The goal of this podcast is to deepen our understanding our our eternal identities (intentionally choosing to believe in our inherent value and goodness), so that we can practice living our lives as that version of ourselves. "We become what we want to be, by being what we want to become each day." -Elder Hales, General Conference October 2010 Living from our belief in our eternal identities helps us exercise our agency to act instead of react-- to BE who we want to be, in all circumstances. This episode is unique: it is the audio extraction from a video that was submitted as part of a speaker application for BYU Education Week, and therefore the content is intended for people who would attend that event.

These episodes just keep getting longer and longer! We think it’s worth it, though, because Elder Hales’ talk “Becoming Disciples of Our Lord Jesus Christ” had so much to discuss. We talk about Christlike attributes and how they’re all connected with one another. We also touch on how repentance plays into the mix and share a fun fact about Elder Hales getting bullied by a local paper as a high school baseball pitcher. This is not an episode to miss!

We discuss “Come, Follow Me by Practicing Christian Love and Service” by Elder Robert D. Hales. We talk about Elder Hales’ habit of wearing the same tie in general conference, parenting in a changing world, and whether or not Christlike living takes away your competitive edge.
