Podcasts about personal reflections

Tomelex Copeland and Joey Svendsen represent Generation X in this first discussion of a 3-part bonus series, "Digital Detox," coinciding with the current teaching series on the weekends at Seacoast Church.  They are joined by Mena Fox and Braden Sutton, both representing Generation Z, also bringing their take on society's relationship with smartphones.  Each contributor of this discussion self-assess the health (or lack of) of their personal technology use and reflect on the current smartphone addiction rampant in society. They discuss whether culture will ever self-correct and form better practices. Tomelex and Joey reflect back on past wins and shortcomings as parents, while Mena and Braden offer helpful insight to all Generation-X parents, who were literally the "guinea pigs" of parenting through this technological boom. Even though the research shows that Gen-Z is wrought with anxiety due to smartphones, deeming them "the Anxious Generation," this addiction touches every one, even "Boomer" grandma's and grandpa's with ipads.  Be a Patron of the podcast  and support our ministry efforts in local prisons.  On this episode:"Gen-X" representation: Tomelex Copeland and Joey Svendsen "Gen-Z" representation: Mena Fox and Braden SuttonInstagram post referred to, concerning digital content and alcohol consumption RIGHT HERE.  We have a YouTube Channel for videos of all episodes since Jan. 2024.

In this eye-opening first half of Impact Theory's sit down with Dr. Andrew Huberman, acclaimed neuroscientist and host of the Huberman Lab podcast, Tom Bilyeu tackles the hidden—and not-so-hidden—forces rewiring the male mind in the digital age. If you've wondered why so many men are feeling demotivated, anxious, or isolated, Dr. Huberman's explanations will open your eyes to the deep biological and social mechanisms behind today's dopamine-driven tech traps. The duo explores the impact of social media, pornography, and platforms like OnlyFans from both a neuroscience and evolutionary biology perspective, revealing how modern technology is expertly tailored to exploit ancient reward circuitry. Dr. Huberman breaks down the unique wiring of the male brain, how testosterone and dopamine interact to drive pursuit and effort—and why these very circuits are being hijacked by addictive virtual feedback loops. Tom and Andrew dive into the evolutionary roots of male behavior, the biology of status-seeking, and how today's online environments subtly, and sometimes not so subtly, sap men's energy and ambition. This must-listen episode is essential for anyone curious about why men are struggling and what's actually happening beneath the surface of our modern digital landscape.

Guiding Question: How can the church prepare for what's next while faithfully handing off leadership to the next generation? Summary Description: In this heartfelt and visionary message, Robert Lewis shares his final sermon as a staff member of Fellowship Bible Church. Using a marathon analogy and drawing from 2 Timothy 4, he frames the transfer of leadership as a necessary and strategic “handoff” to the next generation. Like Paul entrusting Timothy to lead the church at Ephesus, Lewis charges the younger leaders at Fellowship—particularly Tim Lundy—with the responsibility of preaching the Word and fulfilling their ministry with conviction and endurance. This message is both personal and prophetic. Lewis reflects on 25 years of ministry, celebrates the strength of the church, and lays out five key cultural and ministry trends that the next generation must address to ensure the church remains vibrant and faithful. Outline: Marathon Analogy – A race requires preparation, guidance, and the right pacing. Paul and Timothy (2 Timothy 4) – The sacred handoff of leadership and mission. The Reality of Decline – Every thriving church has a shelf life without renewal. Five Cultural and Ministry Trends: Massive church closures due to generational shifts. A move toward small, high-quality churches. A demand for doctrinal clarity and authentic leadership. The rise of homegrown, non-seminary ministers. A renewed focus on evangelizing children and teens. Personal Reflections and Departure – Robert Lewis formally announces his transition to Global Reach and commissions Fellowship's next generation. The Final Charge – Preach the Word. Fulfill your ministry. Die with no regrets. Key Takeaways Effective leadership transitions are intentional, spiritual, and urgent for the future health of the church. The church must adapt to cultural and generational changes without compromising doctrinal clarity or mission. Small churches can be powerful when combined with excellence and community. The future of the church depends on equipping everyday believers for ministry. The most strategic evangelism today is aimed at youth, given their openness and under-reached status. Finishing well means living with “no regrets” and passing the baton with confidence and hope. Scriptural References 2 Timothy 4:1–8 – Paul's solemn charge to Timothy and reflection on finishing well. Acts 20:18–32 (paraphrased) – Paul's farewell to the Ephesian elders, adapted by Lewis to say goodbye to Fellowship. Ecclesiastes 3:1 (implied) – Recognizing seasons and times for transitions.

Tony sits down with his friend and Love, ADHD co-host, Julie De Jesus, to unpack her recent interview with Kevin Franke, ex-husband of Ruby Franke. Ruby, the former “8 Passengers” YouTuber, pled guilty in late 2023 to multiple counts of aggravated child abuse and, along with her business partner Jodi Hildebrandt, was sentenced in February 2024 to up to 30 years in prison under Utah law. While Tony originally planned to ask Julie about Kevin, the conversation took a different turn: the tidal wave of comments Julie received after posting her interview. With humor, honesty, and therapeutic insight, Tony and Julie read through some of those YouTube comments out loud, responding in real time. They explore why people are so quick to judge, why emotions often masquerade as facts, and how online criticism reveals more about the commenter than the person being critiqued. You'll hear candid reflections on: What Kevin's story stirs up in people (and why) How emotional immaturity shows up in the comment section (projection, black-and-white thinking, and mistaking feelings for truth) Why leaving abusive situations is never as simple as outsiders believe The concept of “whole object relations” — holding multiple emotions at once How Julie navigated negativity while staying grounded and authentic This episode is part deep dive into psychology, part raw behind-the-scenes of content creation, and part hilarious reading of unfiltered internet comments. If you've ever wondered why strangers online lash out—or how to handle criticism with both compassion and boundaries—this one's for you. 00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview 00:33 Julie De Jesus and Her Interview with Kevin Frankie 01:11 Handling Criticism and Emotional Reactions 02:40 Understanding Emotional Maturity 03:55 Navigating Online Criticism 07:40 Promoting the Upcoming Cruise 11:51 The Future of Love A DHD Podcast 12:24 Deep Dive into Kevin Frankie's Interview 21:04 Personal Reflections and Recognitions 31:30 Introduction to Kate's Family Dynamics 31:32 Exploring Religious Roles and Power Dynamics 32:23 Personal Reflections and Family Dynamics 35:00 Commentary on Interview Techniques 36:26 Debating Faith and Atheism 38:40 Addressing Online Criticism 42:20 Therapy and Personal Growth 53:05 Inner Child and Emotional Healing 01:00:02 Concluding Thoughts and Reflections Contact Tony at contact@tonyoverbay.com to learn more about his Emotional Architects men's group.

In this episode, Guy talked with  Dr. Bruce Greyson, a retired psychiatrist and an author. He discussed the transformative effects of near-death experiences (NDEs). He explained how NDEs profoundly change people's lives, making them more compassionate and less materialistic. Dr. Greyson shared compelling stories, including that of a Marine whose NDE made him unable to continue his military duties. He highlighted the growing recognition of NDEs in the medical community and the need for further research. The episode also delved into Dr. Greyson's personal journey, the scientific challenges in studying NDEs, and the universal message of interconnectedness and compassion. About Bruce: Dr. Bruce Greyson is the Chester Carlson Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences at the University of Virginia.  He was previously on the medical faculty at the University of Michigan and the University of Connecticut, where he was Clinical Chief of Psychiatry. Dr. Greyson has consulted with the National Institutes of Health and addressed symposia on consciousness at the United Nations and at the Dalai Lama's compound in Dharamsala, India. Dr. Greyson's interest in near-death experiences began just a few months after graduating from medical school, when he treated an unconscious patient in the emergency room who stunned him the next morning with an account of leaving her body. That event challenged his beliefs about the mind and the brain, and ultimately led him on a journey to study near-death experiences scientifically, leading to more than a hundred publications in medical journals.  He co-founded the International Association for Near-Death Studies (IANDS), an organization to support and promote research into these experiences, and for 27 years edited the Journal of Near-Death Studies, the only scholarly journal dedicated to near-death research. Through his research, he has discovered common and universal themes in near-death experiences that go beyond neurophysiological or cultural interpretations, as well as patterns of consistent aftereffects on individuals' attitudes, beliefs, values, and personalities.

In Part 2 of Show Us Your Human, I sit down with Darren Palmer, a leader, entrepreneur, and someone who is incredibly passionate about connecting with others. We dive into the truths behind leadership that are rarely seen—the struggles, the doubts, and the human side of great leadership.ICYMI: About Darren PalmerDarren M. Palmer is a dynamic Serial Entrepreneur and the co-founder of one of the nation's fastest-growing agencies, Prosperity Partners Agency. With a mission to empower families and entrepreneurs, Darren and his partners are equipping leaders with the tools and strategies needed to achieve financial freedom.Before entering the insurance industry, Darren founded Self Publish -N- 30 Days, the #1 self-publishing company in the world, serving high-level entrepreneurs and helping them turn their stories into seven-figure platforms.Through mentorship and experience, Darren discovered the keys to building wealth—but also realized the deep gap in financial literacy within the business community. Refusing to stand on the sidelines, he became a solution in the marketplace, teaching others how to build legacy, protect income, and steward their financial future with confidence.What Makes Darren GreatWe kick off the conversation with an important question: What makes you great? Darren shares that his resilience and deep faith are what truly set him apart. He believes that faith fuels resilience—his ability to keep going even when life gets tough. Resilience, as Darren explains, isn't about never facing challenges, but about keeping faith through the trials. Darren's perspective on leadership is that trials and tribulations are part of the process, and they're what make us more than conquerors.The Struggles and The Strength Behind ResilienceAs we dig deeper, Darren reflects on the struggles that all great leaders face but don't always share with the public. He talks about moments when he's faced real doubts—whether it's in his personal life, in his business decisions, or in his role as a father. Even when Darren has felt like giving up, he speaks to the mechanisms he uses to fight back: controlling his thoughts, his tongue, and his temperament. He shares how positive thinking and speaking life into situations has helped him overcome the hardest challenges, even when it feels like life is constantly knocking him down.The Power of Faith in LeadershipFor Darren, his faith is the cornerstone of his resilience. He explains that, although he experiences moments of fear and doubt, he knows that faith—not perfection—is what keeps him going. Resilience comes from having a belief system strong enough to weather the storms of life. Darren explains that faith and doubt can coexist, and they often fuel each other in a powerful way. Doubt is the human experience, but faith provides the strength to carry on and take action in the face of it.The Power of Speech and ThoughtA key part of Darren's approach to resilience is his ability to control his thoughts and words. He describes the discipline it takes to train your thoughts to stay aligned with the promises of his faith. He acknowledges that we all have thoughts of doubt, but it's important to not let those thoughts dictate our reality. Verbalizing life and affirmations helps Darren stay in alignment with his purpose, no matter what challenges come his way.Your Team as a Source of StrengthWe also talk about the importance of having the right support system. Darren explains that resilience can't be done alone—surrounding yourself with people who align with your values and beliefs is critical for navigating life's toughest moments. Darren emphasizes that as leaders, it's crucial to be transparent with your team, especially in difficult times. By doing so, you allow your team to connect with you on a deeper level and gain strength from the humanity that's often hidden beneath the leadership façade.Taking Ownership of Your Own StoryTowards the end of the conversation, Darren talks about his personal growth and the realizations he's had about his role as a father, business owner, and leader. He reflects on how he used to resent his children because of the unmet expectations he had about being the perfect father. But he quickly realized that he couldn't hold them responsible for his past. Leadership requires self-awareness and a willingness to grow beyond personal struggles, which is exactly what Darren is doing.Key Takeaways:Resilience is not about avoiding challenges but about remaining faithful and hopeful even during hard times.Faith and doubt can coexist, and your faith can fuel your resilience in times of uncertainty.Controlling your thoughts and words is crucial for maintaining the right mindset in leadership.Surround yourself with a supportive team who can help you grow and hold you accountable.As leaders, embrace your humanity and let people see the authenticity behind the title.Resources Mentioned: Darren's website: www.selfpublishn30days.com Find Darren on social media: @selfpublishn30daysIf you're ready to grow as a leader, join me for my free monthly leadership workshop at rockygarza.com/confidenceKey Timestamps:00:00 Introduction to Unfinished Leadership00:49 Defining Resilience01:25 Facing Life's Challenges04:35 The Power of Thoughts and Words09:09 Maintaining Optimism and Integrity14:13 Faith as a Foundation17:49 The Role of Doubt in Belief18:04 Energizing Conversations19:42 The Power of Free Will21:07 Facing Doubt and Building Resilience23:42 Breaking Industry Molds25:50 Financial Literacy and Legacy28:05 Personal Reflections and Growth33:04 Embracing Humanity and Connection35:45 Final Thoughts and EncouragementTo join Rocky for his next free virtual event, go to https://rockygarza.com/beyondsuccessSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/trgs/donations

Welcome back to Who Are These Guys? - where the sarcasm flows like traffic on the LIE and the wisdom is as questionable as a $1 slice at 3 a.m.In this episode, Jesse, Jon, and Kurt break down the single dumbest way to clean a Jeep (spoiler: it involves a garden hose and a complete lack of common sense). From failed parenting hacks to the dark underbelly of soda, and a deep philosophical dive into why Diet Coke might outlive us all - it's another classic mix of chaos, comedy, and unsolicited life lessons.We also bet cold hard cash on who notices a camera change first, confess our driving sins (knee driving, anyone?), and debate whether sobriety is harder than dodging potholes in Queens. Coldplay concert scandals get the full WATG? treatment too - like TMZ, but with a Brooklyn accent. Warning: This episode may cause excessive laughter, nostalgic guilt, and spontaneous trips to Wendy's - even if you're listening from the DR. ⏰ TIMESTAMPS[00:00] A Great Idea Unfolds[01:55] Carpet Cleaning and Dave Matthews[05:30] Parenting Challenges and Lessons[26:34] Driving Adventures and Fast Food[32:54] Personal Reflections on Drinking[38:17] The Human Condition and Societal Pressures[43:21] Public Shaming and Its Consequences[55:55] Marketing and Addiction[58:47] Non-Alcoholic Beers in Movies[01:03:55] Final Thoughts and Reflections

Show Notes: Gregory Mose, an English major, currently lives in Aix-en-Provence where he is the director of international relations and professor of International Law at a small American University program called the American College of the Mediterranean.  When he graduated, his parents wanted him to go to Law School, but Greg wanted to travel. He was offered a teaching fellow position at Athens College in Greece, and he fell in love with the place and the experience. He returned to the US and law school at Duke where he met his wife.   Working for United Nations Greg's interest in international public international law led him to work for the UN during Yugoslavia's war crimes tribunal research project. He secured a two-year contract with the UN High Commissioner for Refugees in Conakry, Guinea, which was a paranoid, isolated place. He worked with refugees there for two years, traveling through Mali, Timbuktu, Dakar, Freetown, Abidjan, and upcountry Guinea. During this time, he helped resettle some people to the United States. Greg's experience in Conakry was both powerful and passionate. He helped resettle some people to the United States who wouldn't be able to be resettled today. However, he returned home underweight and suffering from malaria and PTSD. A Career Changes: Director of International Relations - Stay-at-home Dad Greg joined his fiance in London. After a period of recovery, Greg secured a job in corporate law at an international firm in London. He worked on IPOs and was hired as a young US lawyer in securities practices. After three years, he moved to a London-based firm, Freshfields, Brookhouse, Deringer.  Greg and his wife had their son in 2002 and decided to raise their son themselves rather than handing him over to a nanny. He decided to leave his job to write a novel and raise their son while his wife worked at the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. They considered downsizing and moving to the English countryside or getting more remote to facilitate a change in lifestyle. However, after spending time in the South West of France, they decided to do something radical and bought a medieval farmhouse and land in the South West of France, near a village called Montcabrier.  Village Life in Wine Country Greg describes their experience living in a wine region called the Lot, near the Dordogne, in the southwest. The village had about 30 full-time residents, but most people  lived in farmhouses outside the village. The village had a two-room schoolhouse, a bakery, and a mayor's office. Greg and his family rented out renovated three holiday cottages in summers to families with small children. They built a playground, swimming pool, and a beautiful field on their property. Greg also shares his experiences with their neighbors. He also learned how to use a chainsaw and finished his novel, Stunt Road. However, as their son grew older, they decided they needed a bigger centre with more activities and schools. They moved to Aix-en-Provence. Working in Education Greg didn't know what he was going to do there, but they enrolled their son in the International School where he was hired to teach a critical thinking course called Theory of Knowledge at the International Baccalaureate program. He became a high school teacher for 10 years and realized his love for teaching, and eventually wanted to teach at university. He decided to pursue a PhD program at French universities, which were affordable. The tuition for a PhD was about $500 a year.  Greg mentions the benefits of social programs in France. He eventually became a full-time professor at the American College in Aix and runs a master's program in international relations. Integration with French Culture Greg's life is different from what people think it is like living in Southern France. He finds it challenging to integrate into the country. In the rural areas, French culture is radically different, with people being warm but also private. Weekends are spent with family, and they do not easily invite people into their homes. However, he finds warmth in the greetings and the respect shown to others. This reinforces a tradition of treating each other as equals and respect. He also talks about how his students from abroad adjust to French culture.  Back to London and Recovery Greg thinks back to 1998 when he  arrived in North London with his fiance and was unemployed. He had been working at UNHCR, which provided decent pay. However, he was always physically cold and underweight due to his previous experiences with malaria and the constant heat in the tropical climate. He was exhausted from the work and the influx of refugees during the renewed violence in Freetown. One of his bouts of malaria occurred while doing a refugee census in the forest region. He spent three days in a room full of bugs and had limited access to food. He talks about how he broke down and found it was cathartic for him. He talks about a particularly difficult time, and how he teaches a course on armed conflict, linking it to genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and refugees. Large glass He often shares anecdotes from his time there, but admits that sometimes he struggles to get through them. Influential Harvard Professors and Courses Greg mentions his first year English course with Helen Vendler. He recalls a kind act of kindness from her. He also mentions professor Burriss Young, who was the Associate Dean of freshmen at the time and lived in Mass Hall. Burriss was an archeologist, and he invited students to tea in his apartment filled with archeological artifacts. This made his first year at Harvard a magical experience. Greg, coming from LA, idealized Harvard. He had a wonderful time in Cabot House, and Greg believes that these experiences will be a lasting memory for him.  Timestamps: 04:44: Early Career and UN Experience 09:31: Transition to Corporate Law and Family Life  22:55: Return to Education and Teaching Career  30:10: Life in Southern France and Cultural Adjustments  40:37: Personal Reflections and Professional Growth  45:02: Memorable Experiences and Influences from Harvard    Links: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregorymose/ Stunt Road, by Gregory Mose: https://amzn.to/46Orq4X The American College of the Mediterranean: https://www.acmfrance.org/ Greg's Blog: https://quercychronicles.wordpress.com/ Featured Non-profit: The featured non-profit of this week's episode is recommended by Keith Quinn who reports: “Hi.

Today's guest is Barry Ramey - a pardoned J6 with a little different story. Barry was convicted of assaulting a Capital Police officer on January 6, 2021 with pepper spray. Unlike previous guests who had no allegations of violence, Barry freely admits to what he did and regrets it.

This sermon delivered by Pastor Ryan Neer at Tampa Life emphasizes faith and perseverance amid life's unexpected trials. He starts by recounting the Biblical story of Joseph's coat of many colors, focusing on how unplanned events can introduce unforeseen 'colors' or challenges into our lives. Using personal anecdotes, including the powerful testimony of his own mother, Pastor Neer underlines how these challenges can cause us to create enemies and declare death over God's promises. He encourages the congregation to embrace their destiny, release their grief, and allow the community to support their healing, ultimately reinforcing that God's plan is larger than any adversity faced.00:00 Opening Invocation and Worship00:51 Introduction and Personal Reflections02:30 Scripture Reading: Genesis 37 and 4506:17 Sermon Introduction: A Coat, A Context, and A Color08:19 The Story of Jacob and Joseph16:34 Life's Unexpected Colors19:29 Personal Anecdotes and Lessons27:35 Declaring Death Over Dormant Dreams28:07 The Story of Lazarus: A Lesson in Faith29:22 Don't Bury Your Destiny30:48 The Struggle of Jacob and Israel33:50 Living Beneath Your Potential39:13 The Power of Community and Healing41:57 Lorna's Story: From Pain to Redemption51:15 A Call to Reconnect and Heal

Practice Makes Permanent What if your family's strongest values aren't the ones you say—but the ones you show? In this message, we explore the truth that practice doesn't make perfect—it makes permanent. Backed by neuroscience, habit research, and the story of Paul and Silas in Acts 16, we look at how your everyday actions—especially the repeated ones—shape your family's identity and faith. From how you pray in crisis to how you handle conflict, your habits reveal what matters most. And here's the challenge: what are your kids picking up from your life that you never meant to teach—but always lived?  1 Thessalonians 5:16–18  Discussion topics Icebreaker -What's one habit (good or bad) you've picked up from your family—intentionally or unintentionally?  1 Thessalonians 5:16–18 -Read 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18. What does it look like to “rejoice always, pray constantly, and give thanks in everything” as a family?  In Acts 16, Paul and Silas praised God in prison. How might they have practiced this kind of faith long before that moment?  Digging Deeper -What daily routines or behaviors do you think your family is “catching” from your life right now?  Are there any small habits or spiritual practices you want to start—or stop—that would shape your family long-term? Personal Reflection:  What's one area in your life where you need God's help to be more consistent? How can the group pray for you this week?  Check out our other audio series and video playlists that can help you find Jesus in every moment and then discover what's next

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech TrainingIn this episode, Matt Fanslow reflects on the recent passings of two cultural icons—Ozzy Osbourne and Hulk Hogan—and draws parallels between their careers and the automotive aftermarket industry. Both figures revolutionized their respective fields (music and professional wrestling) through innovation, perseverance, and an unparalleled connection with their audiences. Matt explores what we can learn from their legacies, including the importance of passion, reinvention, and recognizing opportunities outside our comfort zones.Key Discussion Points1. Ozzy Osbourne: The Accidental Pioneer of Heavy MetalOzzy's final performance at the Power Trip festival, where he performed in immense pain, skipping pain meds to stay present.How Black Sabbath (with guitarist Tony Iommi) accidentally created metal by downtuning guitars after a workplace injury.The importance of appreciating contributions even if you're not a die-hard fan.The value of knowing how you've impacted others (like Ozzy hearing tributes before his passing).2. Hulk Hogan: The Man Who Made Wrestling MainstreamHogan's physical sacrifices (spinal damage from his signature leg drop) and how wrestling is a work but not fake.His ability to connect with audiences in ways no wrestler had before—comparable to Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock.How Hogan's heel turn (becoming a villain with the NWO) revitalized wrestling during a slump.The role of timing, charisma, and reinvention in long-term success.3. Lessons for the Automotive AftermarketPassion & Perseverance: Like Ozzy and Hogan, success in the aftermarket requires dedication and pushing through challenges.Reinvention: Hogan's shift from hero to villain kept him relevant—how can shops adapt to stay ahead?Breaking Out of Comfort Zones: Both Ozzy and Hogan expanded beyond their core careers (reality TV, movies). How can shops engage in community work, sponsorships, or other visibility-boosting activities?Continuous Improvement: Getting 1% better every day compounds into major growth over time.4. Personal Reflections & Industry ParallelsMatt's admiration for educators like Paul Danner, who revolutionized training accessibility.The importance of finding the right shop culture for growth (just as Hogan thrived under Vince McMahon's WWE expansion).Why awareness of opportunities—both inside and outside the industry—is crucial.Notable Quotes"Ozzy and Hogan didn't just succeed in their fields—they redefined them. That's the kind of impact we should strive for in the aftermarket.""Wrestling isn't fake; it's a performance with real consequences. Same goes for our work—every repair matters.""If you improve by just 0.33% every day, you'll be 100% better in a year. Small steps lead to big changes."While Ozzy and Hogan came from entirely different worlds, their stories remind us that innovation, adaptability, and connection are universal keys to success. Whether you're a technician, shop owner, or industry educator, there's always room to grow—and maybe even revolutionize your corner of the aftermarket.Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech TrainingNAPA Autotech's team of ASE Master Certified Instructors are conducting over 1,200 classes covering 28 automotive topics.

"I have the fortunate experience of having seen so many critical questions answered that I just have faith that there's going to be an answer somewhere for most of it. But really for me, it also comes down to the Book of Mormon. Because I believe the Book of Mormon is the word of God. I have a witness of that. I feel that there is evidence of that, not proof, but strong evidences that indicate that it is true. There's testimony from witnesses, and the criticisms against it that I've looked at have been weak. And so when I come across a new question that I don't know the answer for, I always rely on- I know the Book of Mormon's true, so the church is true- even though I don't know the answer to this question. And there are some questions that don't have good answers for them. We just don't have the information."
