    Brandon Avoided a Mission, Joined the Military, Got Divorced & Lost Faith- Then God Brought Him Back

    " My faith has been completely restored, and more than I could ever imagine. For me to be at this point in my life- where I was and where I saw where I was, it was just so crazy to me. And I always tell everybody when they ask about how I feel about me coming back- God had a plan for me just as He does for everybody. And it sucks that my plan and my path was as hard as it could have been. But ultimately, I know in my heart of hearts that He knew I would come back to church at this time and everything, and that was His plan for me." 00:00 Dark Place after Divorce 02:52 Meet Brandon 05:29 High School Drift 17:31 Marriage Ends and Faith Crashes 21:19 Grace and Unexpected Pregnancy 26:46 Prayer to Return 29:23 Repentance Is Change 40:25 Purpose Is Cool 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

    Raised in a Catholic and LDS home - Why Lindsey chose the Church of Jesus Christ for herself

    "I feel like if we could just look around to the people in our communities and the people that that need us, it takes away like the I factor and it becomes we. And as soon as you do that, no matter where you're at in your life, whether you're a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, whether you're Catholic, whether you're agnostic- as soon as you look out to others and find a way to help people, you can't help but feel the Spirit." 00:00 Too Much Pressure 05:00 Two Faiths At Home 06:13 Mom’s Faithful Example 12:03 Catholic Confirmation Interview 16:05 Truth In Other Religions 20:05 Parents And Mixed Faith Marriage 23:45 Foster Care And Service Mindset Shift 31:35 Final Testimony And Farewell 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

    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

    "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.

    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
