In May 2022, Elder Ronald A. Rasband of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles visited Africa, an area for which he has administrative oversight for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. “This is just the beginning,” Elder Rasband told Latter-day Saints in a social media post celebrating the member meeting in Mozambique — the largest gathering in the history of the Church in that country. Elder Rasband joins this special 100th episode of the Church News podcast with Elder S. Mark Palmer of the Presidency of the Seventy to talk about the Church in Africa. Sister Sheri Dew, executive vice president of Deseret Management Corp. and a former member of the Relief Society general presidency, is the guest host.

Host Sarah Jane Weaver, reporter and editor for The Church News for a quarter-century, shares a unique view of the stories, events, and most important people who form this international faith.

Today Becca shares the specific resources that have been most helpful to her in navigating her husband leaving his faith. She talks about how she has talked to her children about this experience, and the advice she has for those who find themselves in a similar circumstance. Becca also surprised me something her husband wrote regarding his perspective which is both beautiful and helpful. Lessons Becca has learned: 1) FAITH and trust in Heavenly Father. "Come cast your burdens on the Lord and TRUST in His constant care." Hymn 1252) HOPE- "There may be times when we must make a courageous decision to hope, even when everything around us contradicts this hope". -Elder Uchtdorf3) CHARITY- "Charity Never fails" Someone reminded me that my husband has a Savior and I'm not it. My job is just to love him.
