As Magnify women, through life’s many and varied adventures, we hold tight to the Lord’s promise in D&C 122:7 “that all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good.” We've learned that one of the ways we reap from this goodness is in how we can turn around and share what we’ve learned with others and help them along their path. Our lives become a collection of opportunities and testimony of moments that we can pull from later to be of service to each other.

Trusting that our loving Heavenly Father made us for a divine purpose helps us realize that our God-given gifts aren't competitive, they're complimentary! When we come together as women, we have the chance to praise each other, reminding one another of our worth and divine potential. When we embrace our unique talents and gifts, it helps us become our best selves and enables us to lift others along our way.

Sister Elaine Dalton joined us for this very special episode of the podcast, recorded live at Magnify's Lift Up Your Heart event in Salt Lake City! Sister Dalton shares how we are the women spoken of by President Kimball and later by President Nelson, women who will change the world in distinct and happy ways through our testimonies and covenant conviction to the gospel of Jesus Christ. With warmth and love, she reminds us that we're not meant to sit on the sidelines—we each have a divine mission and part in the Lord's great work.

BYU-Pathway helps people around the world get a higher education, develop their talents, and provide opportunities to serve. We had the privilege to learn more about the scope of this incredible program and how we can get involved. As we seek to develop our God-given gifts, and support others to do the same, we increase in our ability to serve and lift those around us as we go about our divine errands.

We're thrilled to welcome President Camille N. Johnson, Relief Society General President, to the Magnify podcast. From President Johnson’s powerful testimony and example of Christlike discipleship we learn ways to let the light of our personal conversion shine above the darkness in the world. President Johnson shares the daily acts of devotion that strengthen her testimony, practices we can emulate to put Christ at the center of our lives. From her unique perspective as the president of a worldwide organization, we learn more about the power we have as covenant-keeping women to individually make a tremendous difference for good as we minister one-by-one.

Rosemary Wixom is with us again! Through her example, personal experiences, and interactions with others, Sister Wixom shows us that when we prioritize our time in the temple, even when time seems like the only thing we don't have enough of in our lives, the blessings are immeasurable. She shares how she learned the truth of this promise from President Nelson: "The Lord will bring the miracles He knows you need as you make sacrifices to serve and worship in His temples.” This episode is one that leaves us inspired and feeling emboldened to spend more time in the temple, either as regular temple workers or through more frequent temple worship.

Our willing hearts are enough for the Lord to send us on divine errands, even if we feel like outsiders, outliers, or full of shortcomings. How can we know? Looking at the examples from women in scripture helps us see that our part in the Lord's work is never small, rather, it's expansive. We don't have to second-guess—moving forward to act on promptings can help us understand that any time we're on God's errand, it's divine.

Shannon Foster, co-founder of The Red Headed Hostess, joins us to share how we can teach children to study the gospel so they learn precious truths for themselves—no matter their age. She also shares how to slow down our personal scripture study to help us be better gospel teachers in our homes and church classrooms.

Life rarely goes how we plan, but we can find deep meaning, peace, and joy, despite the detours and trials. When we recognize God is always with us, our lives can be rich with purpose and we'll find fulfillment despite experiencing loss, heartache, and unmet expectations.

When President Camille Johnson spoke about the parable of the ten virgins, she highlighted how it teaches that "each of us is a steward of our own conversion." With so many mentions of this parable in recent remarks, we're diving in to gain deeper understanding of Jesus's words so we can carefully tend our testimonies and have enough oil for our lamps.

We all want to help be God's hands, but with so much need in the world it can be hard to know where to begin, and even harder to know if what we do makes a difference. Sharon Eubank is here to help guide our efforts! She offers up a perspective shift to help us do the most good in the world through our individual service, and it doesn't involve donating a huge amount of money or trekking the globe. She also shares how to get to the heart of humanitarian work in our own communities, and the immeasurable good we can do in the world when we genuinely connect with each other as Christ would.

In October 1999, Sheri Dew gave a landmark talk entitled "We are Women of God." The words she spoke then still ring true today: “It is by letting the world go and coming unto Christ that we increasingly live as women of God. We were born for eternal glory.”

A recent study by the Pew Research Center shared statistics that Latter-day Saint women are top of the charts when it comes to experiencing “a deep sense of spiritual peace and well-being on a weekly basis.” We also report the “highest rate of being very happy.” To someone only paying attention to what media and popular culture might say, these statistics might be surprising. But we know why these numbers ring true: we live our faith daily and it really does bring us greater peace and happiness.

What does it mean to be “all in” the gospel of Jesus Christ? For nearly eight years, Morgan Jones Pearson has explored that very question in over 300 conversations with Latter-day Saints on the All In podcast. In this episode, Morgan joins the Magnify Podcast to reflect on what she’s learned from sitting across from people in the midst of heartbreak, healing, wrestles, and revelations. She also shares how her own discipleship has deepened as her life has changed over the years. Morgan is the host of the All In Podcast with LDS Living, a mom to two beautiful little girls, and a dear friend and force for good.

We can all relate to being caught comparing ourselves to others, and then wading through the spiral of negative thinking that often goes with it. Our goal on the podcast today is to remind ourselves that There’s a quiet kind of peace that comes when we recognize that we are enough because the Lord will magnify our efforts.
