If you’ve ever felt nudged to do something outside your comfort zone, this episode is for you. 

We explore what Nephi does when the Lord asks him to do something that seems bigger than what he is capable of. Along the way, we’ll connect his experience to your own efforts to look to Christ, increase your faith through action, and find joy in doing things the Lord’s way even if it doesn’t make sense yet.

You’ll also hear a personal story from my own life about a time I followed a prompting that didn’t come with clear instructions. Spoiler: I have no regrets.

Whether you’re wrestling with self-doubt, waiting for more clarity, or wondering where that crazy thought came from in the first place - you can learn from Nephi's example.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • How to use scripture stories as a blueprint for your own life
  • Why your unique gifts matter in the Lord’s work
  • How to grow in confidence before the Lord

No matter how big the task may seem, you don’t have to do it alone. 

This is your invitation to light the world in your own way.
