    From new age witchcraft to the temple - how Jesus saved Kelsea's marriage and her mental health

    This is a replay of a story shared in 2024. "   The foundation of my testimony was the doctrine of the church is right. The way we understand the plan of salvation and eternal progression and all of the things that make us different from mainstream Christianity, I knew to be true based on my reading of the scriptures and praying about it. I was really given a strong testimony of it. And because of that it was like all of the messy history, all the things that the anti-Mormons love to use to sow doubt and stuff, that was all downstream from that. It was like, well, none of that changes that the doctrine is what my testimony is, and I believe the doctrine is true." 00:00 Terrifying Night 05:41 Meet Kelsey 06:16 Leaving the Church at 12 11:22 New Age Deep Dive to Breaking Point 26:42 Love Rekindled: Seeing Your Spouse with New Eyes 28:22 Calling on Jesus & the Reality of Spiritual Warfare 38:00 Testimony of Doctrine, Temple Endowment, and Family Support 46:06 New Age as a Counterfeit: Stay Focused on Christ Memor Jewelry code COMEBACK for 10% off https://memorjewelry.com/ Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% off https://serveclothing.com/ If you have a story to share please fill out the form: https://form.jotform.com/233109071625046 For inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.com Come Back Team: Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly Stone Editor: Cara Reed Outreach Manager: Jenna Carlson Assistant Editor: Britt Smallze Art Director: Jeremy Garcia Production Director: Trent Wardwell

    " His plan for us is to eventually just be back with Him. It doesn't matter what it looks like as long as we end up choosing Him.

    From prison to redemption: How the prayers of Alan's faithful mother led him back to Jesus Christ

    " The moment I stepped out of that Bishop's office, those cravings were gone. I went through three rehabs in my lifetime. I would go to AA meetings. When I got clean, I hated going to the meetings because they just made me feel guilty. Like you have this disease you're gonna carry with you the rest of your life. Well I don't. The Savior took that from me. He took it from me, and I don't have to worry." 00:00 Struggling with Guilt 04:11 Teenage Rebellion and First Experiences with Drugs 10:05 Post-Mission Struggles and First Marriage 11:40 Descent into Addiction and Legal Troubles 27:43 Reuniting with Family After Prison 31:27 Starting the Repentance Process 35:50 Finding Love and Building a Family 39:16 Reflecting on Transformation Memor Jewelry code COMEBACK for 10% off https://memorjewelry.com/ Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% off https://serveclothing.com/ If you have a story to share please fill out the form: https://form.jotform.com/233109071625046 For inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.com Come Back Team: Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly Stone Editor: Cara Reed Outreach Manager: Jenna Carlson Assistant Editor: Michelle Berger Assistant Editor: Britt Smallze Art Director: Jeremy Garcia Production Director: Trent Wardwell

    "You're going to die tonight" - how God and Angels saved Whitney and led her back to Jesus Christ

    "It doesn't matter where you are on the path, it just matters which direction you're facing. I honestly wish I could say that my life is perfect, and since I've gone back to the temple everything has just fallen into place for me. There are times when I kill my sense of joy by comparing myself to other people, but I have to remind myself that it's okay where I'm at. And just like in the creation on the second day, the third day, it is still good. We are still good, and God still sees us as good.

    The Church felt restrictive for Chase's lifestyle until his heart changed and he let Jesus Christ in

    "If you want answers, they are out there. But the one thing that I have learned is who do you have a testimony in? If you have a testimony in the church, if you have a testimony in the missionaries, in anything other than Jesus, it's going to fail you and you're going to fall. But if you have a testimony in Jesus and you really do believe that this is His church, all of those things-they'll pale. And when it's time for you to find those answers, you will find those answers. God works that way, line upon line, precept upon precept." 00:00 Introduction and Personal Beliefs 01:42 Welcoming Chase to the Podcast 11:29 Post-Mission Life and Rebellion 14:27 Life in the Mountains and Personal Realizations 22:17 The Miracle and Reconnecting with Faith 25:26 The Experiment Begins 34:06 Struggles and Realizations 40:22 Understanding Celestial Thinking Memor Jewelry code COMEBACK for 10% off https://memorjewelry.com/ Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% off https://serveclothing.com/ If you have a story to share please contact ashly.comebackpodcast@gmail.com For inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.com Come Back Team: Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly Stone Editor: Cara Reed Outreach Manager: Jenna Carlson Assistant Editor: Michelle Berger Assistant Editor: Britt Smallze Art Director: Jeremy Garcia Production Director: Trent Wardwell

    Meth Addict, Felon, Excommunicated—Troy’s Transformation From Darkness to the Light of Jesus Christ

    "Never judge a book by its cover. Because I'm covered with tattoos. You know, I got tattoos all over my neck, everywhere I'm covered. Don't ever look down on nobody. The only time you look down at somebody is if you have a hand stretched out to help the person up. Just like my Savior had His hand stretched out to me. For so long. Finally I grasped ahold of His hand and He lifted me right outta my darkness, and now my light can shine. It's my prayer and my hope now that people want to know Christ because they know me." 00:00 Introduction and Early Struggles 03:02 Troy's Early Life and Conversion 13:38 Descent into Addiction 16:38 Legal Troubles and Incarceration 28:36 Baptism and Reconciliation 30:57 Challenges and Misunderstandings 32:37 Seeking Guidance and Support 37:47 Restoration of Blessings 40:07 Temple Experiences 42:38 Sharing the Journey 48:43 Final Reflections and Gratitude Memor Jewelry code COMEBACK for 10% off https://memorjewelry.com/ Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% off https://serveclothing.com/ If you have a story to share please contact ashly.comebackpodcast@gmail.com For inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.com Come Back Team: Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly Stone Editor: Cara Reed Outreach Manager: Jenna Carlson Assistant Editor: Michelle Berger Assistant Editor: Britt Smallze Art Director: Jeremy Garcia Production Director: Trent Wardwell

    Kristin removed her records- then Jesus led her back through miracles and angels from the other side

    "I'm done doing these things alone. I'm ready to submit to your will. Like, I'm gonna let go of all my beliefs, all the things I think I know. I'm gonna let go of all of that, and I just want You to guide me forward. I told Him, I don't know if this church is true, but it's where I feel comfortable. So just show me. Like, be with me.

    Joseph studied the CES Letter and Anti-Mormon claims...why he chose to Come Back to the LDS church

    "I personally believe that one of the ways in which the spirit speaks to someone such as myself is through logical sense. Which I think is interesting because usually those two things are pitted against each other. I never received the voice in my head saying, this is true when I'm reading the Book of Mormon as some people would. As something clicked in my head I would be at peace about it. And then obviously the heart and mind have to be unified in order to be spiritually in tune. So I am always like, well, if you're experiencing an absence of the spirit because you have all these logical problems, that's probably why. It's because your heart and mind need to be in tune. And that's obviously why I never received a purely spiritual witness, because my mind was just not in it, and my mind needs to be in it. And so I always like to view those two things as working together, not really working against each other." 00:00 Facing a Crisis of Faith 08:06 Seeking Answers and Facing Doubts 11:54 Turning to Family and Church Leaders 20:23 Finding Hope in Apologetic Literature 23:54 Discovering Influential Books 29:36 Advice for Navigating Anti-Religious Content 32:39 Reconciling Faith and Logic 39:20 What Makes The Church Different Memor Jewelry code COMEBACK for 10% off https://memorjewelry.com/ Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% off https://serveclothing.com/ If you have a story to share please contact ashly.comebackpodcast@gmail.com For inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.com Come Back Team: Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly Stone Editor: Cara Reed Outreach Manager: Jenna Carlson Assistant Editor: Michelle Berger Assistant Editor: Britt Smallze Art Director: Jeremy Garcia Production Director: Trent Wardwell
