Follow Him: A Come, Follow Me Podcast featuring Hank Smith & John Bytheway
What if building Zion isn't about sacrifice alone, but about offering your strengths to lift others? Sister Emily Utt examines how the Lord gathered Saints from all walks of life to Kirtland—uniting their education, talents, and willingness to consecrate—in order to help build a Zion community.SHOW NOTES/TRANSCRIPTSEnglish: https://tinyurl.com/podcastDC222ENFrench: https://tinyurl.com/podcastDC222FRGerman: https://tinyurl.com/podcastDC222DEPortuguese: https://tinyurl.com/podcastDC222PTSpanish: https://tinyurl.com/podcastDC222ESYOUTUBEhttps://youtu.be/_Fwa4LqRBTUALL EPISODES/SHOW NOTESfollowHIM website: https://www.followHIMpodcast.comFREE PDF DOWNLOADS OF followHIM QUOTE BOOKSNew Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastNTBookOld Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastOTBookWEEKLY NEWSLETTERhttps://tinyurl.com/followHIMnewsletterSOCIAL MEDIAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/followHIMpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/followhimpodcastTIMECODE00:00 - Part 1 - Sister Emily Utt05:08 John Taylor's statement about possessing lands again06:51 Emily Utt's bio09:46 Come, Follow Me Manual14:34 The Knight family and Colesville16:33 A historian's view of the upcoming building of Zion22:11 What happens in Kirtland, Ohio, USA24:23 What is humble and contrite?28:20 Zion includes those that build and edify others29:29 A poem found in the walls of the St. George Temple32:39 Lehman Copley's farm34:24 Brigham Young's view of Zion38:14 D&C 51:9 - Seek for unity41:16 Missionaries being sent to Missouri44:15 Preach on the way48:41 Lesser known people54:24 Reynolds Cahoon56:08 What historical content is available59:06 What do clerks and printers have to do with Zion?1:02:40 Education's importance in Zion1:05:39 The Lord values every talent and skill1:09:35 End of Part 1 - Sister Emily UttThanks to the followHIM team:Steve & Shannon Sorensen: Cofounder, Executive Producer, SponsorDavid & Verla Sorensen: SponsorsDr. Hank Smith: Co-hostJohn Bytheway: Co-hostDavid Perry: ProducerKyle Nelson: Marketing, SponsorLisa Spice: Client Relations, Editor, Show NotesWill Stoughton: Video EditorKrystal Roberts: Translation Team, English & French Transcripts, WebsiteAriel Cuadra: Spanish TranscriptsAmelia Kabwika: Portuguese TranscriptsHeather Barlow: Communications DirectorIride Gonzalez: Social Media, Graphic Design"Let Zion in Her Beauty Rise" by Marshall McDonaldhttps://www.marshallmcdonaldmusic.com
Today's guest on The Evangelism Podcast is Evan Herrman—a passionate communicator, devoted family man, and the CEO of Evangelism NOW. From a young age, Evan has loved the Church and ministry, a calling that led him to earn a degree in Theology from Oral Roberts University. He has dedicated his life to helping others grow in faith and purpose. But Evan's journey hasn't been without obstacles. As a child, he struggled with reading and writing—graduating high school with only a seventh-grade reading level. Yet through determination and faith, he overcame those early challenges. Now, as an author, he wrote a book called Evangelism Now that inspire others to overcome their own evangelism barriers and boldly live out their faith. Evan believes that everyone has a unique story to tell, and he's on a mission to empower people to share their testimonies and make a difference in the world. In this episode, we'll hear Evan's incredible story of perseverance, purpose, and passion for evangelism—and how he's using his life to bring hope to others.

Hey there! In this week's episode, 203. Hey, Missionary Momma, I'm diving deep into the world of motherhood, specifically for missionary moms. Mother's Day can be a tricky time, filled with complex emotions and expectations. In this episode, I share my personal experiences of having kids who've served missions, stepped away from the church, and navigated different life paths, to help you understand that there's no one "perfect" way to be a mom. I want you to know that it's okay to feel all the feelings - the frustration, the sadness, the joy, and everything in between. Motherhood isn't about being a superhero or meeting some impossible standard. It's about showing up as your authentic self, loving your kids through their journeys, and giving yourself grace. Whether you're spending your Saturday morning doing chores, running a marathon, or taking a much-needed nap, you are doing an amazing job. Hey, Missionary Mommas out there, this episode is for you. I want to remind you that you are exactly the mom your kids need, imperfections and all. Our Heavenly Parents aren't looking for perfection - they're looking for love, authenticity, and your willingness to keep showing up. Happy Mother's Day, warrior mamas! You've got this, and I'm cheering you on every step of the way. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did. Until next week my friends.

In this episode of the Gotta Be Saints Podcast, I sit down with Fr. Donald Haggerty, priest of the Archdiocese of New York and renowned spiritual writer, for a sobering and deeply moving conversation on his newest book, The Hour of Testing: Spiritual Depth and Insight in a Time of Ecclesial Uncertainty.With decades of experience in priestly ministry and a profound relationship with the Missionaries of Charity, Fr. Haggerty offers insight into the spiritual challenges of our time. In this episode, we reflect on the fading of faith, the rise of indifference to God, and how Catholics are called not to panic—but to go deeper into prayer, suffering, and redemptive love.We explore what it means to live out union with Christ in the 21st century, how suffering can be offered for souls, and why this era—dark as it may seem—can still be a fertile ground for hidden saints and heroic virtue.Topics Covered:Why the indifference to God may be the greatest evil of our timeHow prayer, sacrifice, and Eucharistic devotion sustain usThe connection between holiness and the dark forces in every ageHow to find meaning in suffering and offer it with ChristWhether we may be entering a time foreshadowing the Passion of the ChurchWhat gives Fr. Haggerty hope in this “hour of testing”Why now is a time not for lukewarmness, but heroic sanctity

Missionaries in the late 19th and early 20th century often didn't speak the language and didn't know anyone in the new country they were going to, at least at first. Missionary boards typically sent couples like Joseph and Jennie Westphal into the field together so that they would not have to go it alone. But this didn't stop single women missionaries in South America like Lucy Post and Olive Westphal from carrying out their calling of service. They found ways to build support networks of community, friends and other family members so their work was impactful and long-lasting, laying the foundation for medical clinics, hospitals, churches and universities that are still present today. Thank you to our guests, Dr. Silvia Sholtus & Pastor Kayla Goodman. Special thanks to Ashlee Chisholm from the General Conference Archives for helping us find photos of Jennie Westphal and Lucy Post.

Back in 1831, missionaries were asked to “go forth” and teach the gospel. The problem? Most of these guys were farmers without any professional teaching experience. Even today, we call “teachers” in the church assuming they know how to teach. The Lord is kind and gives the first ever “teacher training” in D&C 42.
The Company of Jesus (to indicate its military spirit) also called "The Society of Jesus", were linguists, explorers and ethnographers. They learned New World Indigenous languages and customs, developed dictionaries and grammars, translated and preserved much of the history and traditions in their documents—which include details of their missions and activities and both the successes and failures of the Jesuits in their attempts to convert Indigenous peoples. In North America, their goal was to bring lost souls to Christianity and they were willing to endure hardships and to shed their blood to succeed.

DescriptionIn the wake of the news this week of Pope Francis' death, I immediately wondered what we could do here at Better Preach to honor his legacy, teaching and example - particularly around Preaching. For a while I wanted to do a dive into his first major letter to the Church, the Joy of the Gospel, from 2013, and look closely at his lengthy section in that document on homiletics. And thanks to Fr. Craig Vasek, who joined me way back in the beginning on episode 2 of Better Preach, he agreed to join me again at the last minute here to look back at Pope Francis' longest magisterial teaching on Preaching. Father Craig Vasek currently serves as pastor of St. Bernard's Catholic Church in Thief River Falls, Minnesota. Ordained in 2010 as a priest of the Diocese of Crookston, Minnesota, Fr. Vasek is a graduate of the Pontifical North American College in Vatican City, having obtained a Licentiate of Sacred Theology in 2011. Father Vasek has worked extensively with the Missionaries of Charity of Saint Teresa of Calcutta in Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America. He has produced works on the topics of Scripture and the Spiritual Life, and served as Specialist for the National Eucharist Revival with the US Conference of Catholic Bishops.Check out Fr. Vasek's homilies here on: Podbean: https://stbernards.podbean.comSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6mwAvHPBm7c0pjGYUZxWEdLinksFor more information about the Better Preach Podcast visit: www.ryanohara.org/betterpreachBetter Preach Podcast is now on YouTube.

Full Text of ReadingsSecond Sunday of Easter Sunday of Divine Mercy Lectionary: 45The Saint of the day is Saint Louis Mary Grignion de MontfortSaint Louis Mary Grignion de Montfort's Story Louis's life is inseparable from his efforts to promote genuine devotion to Mary, the mother of Jesus and mother of the Church. Totus tuus (“completely yours”) was Louis's personal motto; Pope John Paul II chose it as his episcopal motto. Born in the Breton village of Montfort, close to Rennes, France, as an adult Louis identified himself by the place of his baptism instead of his family name, Grignion. After being educated by the Jesuits and the Sulpicians, he was ordained a diocesan priest in 1700. Soon he began preaching parish missions throughout western France. His years of ministering to the poor prompted him to travel and live very simply, sometimes getting him into trouble with Church authorities. In his preaching, which attracted thousands of people back to the faith, Father Louis recommended frequent, even daily, Holy Communion—not the custom then!—and imitation of the Virgin Mary's ongoing acceptance of God's will for her life. Louis founded the Missionaries of the Company of Mary, for priests and brothers, and the Daughters of Wisdom, who cared especially for the sick. His book True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin has become a classic explanation of Marian devotion. Louis died in Saint-Laurent-sur-Sèvre, where a basilica has been erected in his honor. He was canonized in 1947, and his liturgical feast is celebrated on April 28. Reflection Like Mary, Louis experienced challenges in his efforts to follow Jesus. Opposed at times in his preaching and in his other ministries, Louis knew with Saint Paul, “Neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who causes the growth” (1 Corinthians 3:7). Any attempt to succeed by worldly standards runs the risk of betraying the Good News of Jesus. Mary is “the first and most perfect disciple,” as the late Sulpician Father Raymond Brown described her.

AUDIOBOOK: Audiobook – Now Available on Audible CGSUSA is excited to offer you the audio version of The Religious Potential of the Child – 3rd Edition by Sofia Cavalletti, read by Rebekah Rojcewicz! The Religious Potential of the Child is not a “how-to” book, complete with lesson plans and material ideas. Instead it offers a glimpse into the religious life of the atrium, a specially prepared place for children to live out their silent request: “Help me come closer to God by myself.” Here we can see the child's spiritual capabilities and perhaps even find in our own souls the child long burdened with religious information. This book serves as a companion to the second volume, The Religious Potential of the Child 6 to 12 Years Old. The desire to have this essential text available in audio has been a long-held goal for many. The work of many hands has combined to bring this release to life as an audiobook.

What if changing the world started with your dinner table? Today, I sit down with Ennie Hickman, co-founder of the Delray Collective, an organization dedicated to equipping people to be ordinary missionary disciples in their everyday lives. We dive into the quiet power of everyday hospitality—those small, intentional acts that build trust, create belonging, and speak louder than any grand gesture ever could. We'll chat about how simply opening your home, sharing a meal, or listening with your whole heart can spark something way bigger than you might expect. It's not about doing more—it's about being present. We'll explore how love and joy in the ordinary can be one of the most powerful ways to live out your faith and impact your community. So grab a cup of coffee and join us as we talk about the beauty of showing up, being real, and letting light shine through the simplest moments.

About this PodcastWhat did European missionaries misunderstand about Hinduism when they first arrived in India?How did colonial power and missionary pressure help reshape Hindu identity from within?Could the rise of modern Hindu nationalism be traced back to these early cultural and religious encounters?When European missionaries arrived in India in the sixteenth century, they entered a world both fascinating and bewildering. Hinduism, as they saw it, was a pagan mess: a worship of devils and monsters by a people who burned women alive, performed outlandish rites and fed children to crocodiles. But it quickly became clear that Hindu ‘idolatry' was far more layered and complex than European stereotypes allowed, surprisingly even sharing certain impulses with Christianity.Nonetheless, missionaries became a threatening force as European power grew in India. Western ways of thinking gained further ascendancy during the British Raj: while interest in Hindu thought influenced Enlightenment thinkers like Voltaire in Europe, Orientalism and colonial rule pressed Hindus to reimagine their religion. In fact, in resisting foreign authority, they often adopted the missionaries' own tools and strategies. It is this encounter, Manu S. Pillai argues, that has given Hinduism its present shape, also contributing to the birth of an aggressive Hindu nationalism.Gods, Guns and Missionaries surveys these remarkable dynamics with an arresting cast of characters – maharajahs, poets, gun-wielding revolutionaries, politicians, polemicists, philosophers and clergymen. Lucid, ambitious, and provocative, it is at once a political history, an examination of the mutual impact of Hindu culture and Christianity upon each other, and a study of the forces that have prepared the ground for politics in India today. Turning away from simplistic ideas on religious evolution and European imperialism, the past as it appears here is more complicated – and infinitely richer – than previous narratives allow.

Although the history of Indonesian music has received much attention from ethnomusicologists and Western composers alike, almost nothing has been written on the interaction of missionaries with local culture. Missionaries, Anthropologists, and Music in the Indonesian Archipelago (U California Press, 2025) represents the first attempt to concentrate on the musical dimension of missionary activities in Indonesia. In fourteen essays, a group of distinguished scholars show the complexity of the topic: while some missionaries did important scholarship on local music, making recordings and attempting to use local music in services, others tried to suppress whatever they found. Many were collaborating closely with anthropologists who admitted freely that they could not have done their work without them. And both parties brought colonial biases into their work. By grappling with these realities and records, this book is a collective effort to decolonize the project of making music histories. Byung Ho Choi is a Ph.D. candidate in the History and Ecumenics program at Princeton Theological Seminary, concentrating in World Christianity and history of religions. His research focuses on the indigenous expressions of Christianities found in Southeast Asia, particularly Christianity that is practiced in the Muslim-dominant archipelagic nation of Indonesia. More broadly, he is interested in history and the anthropology of Christianity, complexities of religious conversion and social identity, inter-religious dialogue, ecumenism, and World Christianity.

"But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided for you." – Matthew 6:33This verse calls us to put God's Kingdom first in every aspect of our lives—including our investments—trusting that He will provide and use our efforts to advance His purposes. Today, Will Lofland joins us to share how that's happening right now.Will Loftland is the Managing Director of Investments Distribution at GuideStone Funds, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. He also oversees GuideStone's shareholder advocacy strategy and represents the firm as a participant in the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility.Who Is Guidestone?Guidestone is more than a financial services firm—it's a ministry to ministries. It is focused on serving ministries in all financial aspects of their work, including retirement plans, insurance solutions, wealth management, and the nation's largest Christian-screened mutual fund family.By equipping ministries with financial stability and security, Guidestone helps leaders focus more fully on spreading the gospel. Their services are designed to remove the weight of financial anxiety so that pastors, missionaries, and nonprofit leaders can flourish in their callings.What makes Guidestone unique is its unwavering commitment to honoring God with every dollar invested. Through rigorous Christian values screening, corporate engagement, and impact investing, it ensures that each fund reflects biblical principles.Guidestone's Impact Funds are an extension of this stewardship philosophy. Launched just before 2020, these funds go beyond avoiding harmful investments—they proactively invest in companies, projects, and causes that create meaningful change.Take the Impact Bond Fund, for example. It invests in projects like:Clean water infrastructureAffordable housing initiativesChristian-focused senior living communitiesThey believe that if we are truly stewards of God's resources, we want to invest in a manner that honors God and His purposes for human flourishing. Introducing the Kingdom Causes ProgramWhile securities can create positive change, their reach has limits. That's where Guidestone's Kingdom Causes program comes in.Born out of the Impact Funds initiative, Kingdom Causes donates 20% of the advisory revenue generated by the Impact Funds and supplements it with additional funding. Since 2020, they've donated nearly $750,000 to ministries advancing the gospel and protecting life.Their giving is focused on two core pillars:Sanctity of LifeSpreading the GospelFrom local to global, the ministries they support reflect these values.Ministries Making a DifferenceLocal Impact: Prestonwood Pregnancy CenterLocated in the Dallas area, this center is an extension of Prestonwood Baptist Church and serves women with compassionate care and gospel-centered support during unplanned pregnancies.They provide honest care, real information, and a strong infrastructure to support needy women. National Reach: Psalm 139 ProjectThis initiative provides ultrasound machines and resources to pregnancy centers nationwide, reinforcing the value of life and empowering expectant mothers.Meeting Physical Needs in the Name of JesusGuidestone also supports ministries that serve practical needs as an avenue for gospel outreach.Send ReliefA joint venture between the International Mission Board (IMB) and the North American Mission Board (NAMB), Send Relief addresses urgent needs like the following:Medical Missions in VenezuelaEntrepreneurial training for widows in AfricaLocal development projectsThese efforts not only meet physical needs but also open doors for evangelism.Faith-Based Content for Kids: Meet MinnoRecognizing the need for Christ-centered media, Guidestone supports Minno, a streaming platform offering biblically grounded content for children. It gives parents peace of mind knowing their kids are watching wholesome, faith-filled shows.Discipling the Forgotten: Prison MinistriesTwo standout organizations Guidestone supports are:Prison Fellowship: Sharing the hope of Christ with incarcerated individuals.

Change can be scary—whether it's stepping into a new season of life, starting something unfamiliar, or supporting a loved one through a big transition. In this episode, Corrine sits down with Natalyn O. Lewis, better known as Natty—a human behavior and performance expert who has spent over 25 years helping people understand fear, emotional resilience, and what it takes to truly thrive. Natty shares how fear isn't a sign to stop—it's actually a sign you're on the right path. She explains the “window of tolerance” and why managing stress and emotions the right way can help you move forward with confidence instead of shutting down. She also dives into the real reasons why people start things but don't finish them—and how to break free from that cycle. Beyond her work with business leaders and athletes, Natty has a deep passion for helping missionaries and their moms navigate the emotional challenges that come with missionary life. Through her project, Missionaries, Moms, and Mondays, she's equipping families with tools to make this experience one of growth rather than survival. Whether you're preparing for a mission, supporting a missionary, or simply facing a season of change, this conversation will help you shift your mindset, push past fear, and embrace the process of becoming the person you were meant to be. For more from Natty, follow her on Instagram @natty.o.lewis and check out her Missionaries, Moms, and Mondays playlist on her YouTube channel, Chatty with Natty, for more insights on thriving through fear and change.
