    Behind the Scenes of "Preach My Gospel" — Pres. Christofferson's "The Character of Christ"

    06/14/2026 S7E7, Episode #240,⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠President D. Todd Christofferson⁠⁠, 2nd Counselor in the 1st Presidency of ⁠⁠⁠The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠April 2026 General Conference talk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠"The Character of Christ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠." Mitch and Clay were joined by Lane Steinagel, a polyglot linguist who worked for decades in the Missionary Training Center (MTC) and the missionary department where he helped create the first edition of the church's missionary manual, Preach My Gospel. In addition to conducting field research at numerous "test missions," he wrote the first draft of chapter 7, "Learn Your Mission Language." Not long after helping create PMG, Lane got to put it to the test personally when he and Sister Steinagel were called as mission leaders in Ukraine! This episode touches on the divine attributes of Jesus Christ and how to obtain them, missionary work, how revelation worked in the big team assigned to the complex project that became PMG, and much more!

Mitch and Clay were joined by Kristen Hoffman, a recent convert and mother of three boys, one of whom, John, was born with a condition so rare, only 2 other known cases exist in the world! Though limited, John's 9-year-life touched many people. When Elder Rasband posted on Instagram about his grandson Paxton's similar struggles and short mortal experience, Kristen and Elder Rasband shared a brief, but touching digital interaction. We invited Kristen to tell us more about John and her conversion story. This episode touches on Jesus, true friendship, teaching the gospel by who you are more than what you say, raising children with developmental challenges, resurrection, Joseph Smith's teaching on what'll happen after this life for young children who pass away prematurely, faith, and much more!

    Mission Stories from Africa—Elder Carlos A. Godoy, "Smiling Faces and Grateful Hearts"

    03/30/2026 S6E72, Episode #233⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Elder ⁠Carlos A. Godoy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, General Authority Seventy of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠October 2025 General Conference⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠"⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Smiling Faces and Grateful Hearts⁠." Mitch and Clay were joined by Greg Wilson, the guy who likely made the furniture you pull out for ward parties. Greg founded Mity (aka Mity-Lite) to create lightweight tables and chairs for the church. He grew it into a multinational company, supplying the church but also schools and other venues, before selling it 20 years ago. In retirement, the Wilsons served a mission to the Democratic Republic of the Congo where they experienced incredible things and made lifelong friends. Greg is one of the biggest advocates for everyone, but especially seniors, to serve missions. Hopefully his stories inspire you to put in your papers! This episode touches on gratitude, poverty, senior missionary service, Africa, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, miracles, dedication, trusting the Lord, and much more!
