#923 What does it really take to build a billion-dollar brand from a side-hustle idea? In this episode hosted by Kirsten Tyrrel, Shawn Nelson, founder and CEO of Lovesac, shares how a giant foam-filled beanbag he stitched together after high school sparked a 25-year entrepreneurial journey.

Episode 257: A Simple Script for Missionary Moms is for every missionary mom, dad, mission leader, or loved one who has ever wondered, "What do I say when my missionary is struggling?" In this episode, I share one simple but powerful script that can completely change the way you support missionaries, returned missionaries, and young adults through hard days, discouragement, anxiety, homesickness, self doubt, or even thoughts of coming home from the mission. We talk about why our brains naturally want to fix problems, why missionaries often think there is something wrong with them for struggling, and how your response can either add pressure or create safety and connection. I walk through the simple practice of normalize, validate, repeat and explain how learning to "hold space" instead of trying to fix things can strengthen trust, confidence, emotional resilience, and relationships with your missionary or returned missionary. Whether your missionary is struggling with mission anxiety, discouragement, confidence, self worth, social anxiety after the mission, or simply feeling overwhelmed, this episode will give you practical tools and a simple script to help you respond in a way that feels calm, loving, and supportive. You do not have to fix your missionary, solve every problem, or say the perfect thing. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is simply remind them that it makes sense, it is okay, and you are there to help them move through it. Episode 257: A Simple Script for Missionary Moms will show you exactly how. 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.

Missionary. Mentor. Storyteller. In this unforgettable message, Mike Constantine shares raw stories from 45 years on the mission field—from Nigeria to Malaysia—and reveals the kind of joy the world can't manufacture. "The Joy of Discovery" is more than a missions message. It's a call to discover the deep fulfillment that only comes from saying YES to God. Through hilarious moments, powerful testimonies, spontaneous songs, and deeply moving encounters, Mike reminds us that joy is not just an emotion—it's the contentment that comes from living in the Father's will. From former Jehovah's Witnesses encountering grace for the first time… to hidden seasons of failure, fear, and frustration… to unexpected open doors across the nations—this message will stir your faith and challenge your comfort zone. If you've ever wondered: • "Can God really use someone like me?" • "What if I fail?" • "What if my 'yes' changes everything?" …then this message is for you. You'll laugh. You may cry. But most of all, you'll leave wanting more of the Master's joy. Key themes: • The difference between happiness and true joy • Discovering purpose through obedience • Missions, calling, and surrender • Grace in seasons of failure • How God uses unlikely people • Living for something eternal "One yes to God can open windows you never knew existed." Listen now and discover the joy found only in the will of the Father.

Garrett Hines was raised in the non-instrumental Church of Christ, but had a renewed excitement for Evangelization through a nondenominational congregation, and became a missionary to Indonesia for a few years. That ended poorly, and shook his faith. During COVID especially, he began to explore other ways to renew his Christian commitment, and became fascinated with the Catholic Church. He became Catholic, and began to use his artistic gifts to train as an iconographer.
If you know God's Voice, the Lord will use you for assignments when no one else knows what to do. Hearing God is not magic. It's not rigid. It's something that must be searched out to be truly found. Other people's methods will not work for you. There is something unique God wants to birth in you. There are different methods and ways the Lord wants to speak to you. Many times, He is teaching us how to look at things before speaking clearly or God is wanting reveal Himself to us more so we can take in what He is trying to say. Hearing God's Voice is meant to be personal and intimate. We cannot demand or manufacture an answer from God. His voice is both familiar and unique every time we hear Him speak.
Good morning, God bless you dear friend! Knowledge and the type of, is today's talk.

In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Joshua 1–8; 23–24 and step into the long awaited moment when the children of Israel finally enter the promised land after years of wandering in the wilderness. As Joshua takes Moses' place, the Lord repeats the same invitation again and again: “Be strong and of a good courage.” These chapters become a reminder that faith often means stepping forward before the miracle happens. From crossing the Jordan River on dry ground, to carrying stones of remembrance, to walking around the walls of Jericho day after day, the people are invited to trust a God who keeps His promises even when the outcome cannot yet be seen. This episode highlights what it looks like to live in the realm of miracles. Dave and Grace explore the courage to follow God into unfamiliar places, the importance of remembering His goodness, and the power of believing before the walls fall. The story of Rahab becomes a beautiful witness that faith can change everything, and that God delights in rescuing, welcoming, and redeeming every person who chooses to believe. This episode invites us to look at our own life and ask where God may already be moving. Because sometimes faith looks like stepping into the water before it parts, walking around the walls one more time, or building reminders of the miracles we never want to forget. And through every chapter, Joshua reminds us that the God who led His people before is still the God who leads us now.
