    for the one who feels forgotten

    What if remembering someone’s name is one of the simplest ways to help them feel truly seen? In this episode of This Is Kingdom: A Good News Brand Podcast, Grace, Talon, TJ, and Hollis begin with an emotional farewell to Kit, a beloved studio team member, who shares advice about “value mapping” and aligning life decisions with the things that matter most. They then discuss Elder Clement M. Matswagothata’s talk He Knows You by Name, exploring how God personally knows and values each of His children.

The conversation highlights how small acts of attention and kindness can mirror the way Christ loves and sees each person. This week’s challenge is to learn one new person’s name every day.

    For the one who wants to wake up excited

    What if you don’t need a different life, but simply need to live your life differently?

Through stories about finding meaning, setting big goals, and choosing to be difference makers, they reflect on how walking with Jesus can transform even the most normal moments into something meaningful.

    for the one who needs strength

    What if the temple isn't just a place you visit, but a place where God equips you for everything you're facing? In this episode of This Is Kingdom: A Good News Brand Podcast, Grace, Talon, TJ, and Hollis discuss Elder Quentin L. Cook’s talk Keys, Covenants, and Easter. Grace shares how visiting Jerusalem and the Kirtland Temple deepened her faith, helping her realize that the Savior's promises are just as real today as they were in scripture. The group explores the idea that every temple around the world carries the same divine blessings and covenants found in Doctrine and Covenants 109. Together, they reflect on what makes a place truly sacred and how approaching temples, sacrament meetings, and even our homes with greater reverence can transform our spiritual lives. The conversation highlights powerful temple promises, including being armed with God's power, having His name upon us, and being watched over by angels. This week's challenge is to read Doctrine and Covenants 109:1–45 and mark every blessing and promise connected to the temple. By seeing what God offers through His house, listeners are invited to deepen their appreciation for sacred spaces and approach them with greater faith and intention. The episode closes with a tender children's hymn about preparing to meet the Savior.

    for the one who needs a friend

    In this episode of This Is Kingdom: A Good News Brand Podcast, Grace, Talon, TJ, and Hollis discuss Elder Gary E. Stevenson’s talk Lost Luggage, Redeemed Souls, exploring what it means to be more accessible and present in our relationships. Inspired by the story of an airport that hasn't lost a single piece of luggage in decades, they reflect on the simple but powerful idea of keeping your "handles facing outward" so others can more easily reach, connect with, and rely on you. Through personal stories and practical examples, they discuss answering unexpected phone calls, warmly welcoming people into your life, and overcoming the fear of being the one who reaches out first. The conversation highlights how genuine connection often begins with a simple act of initiation and why choosing to care is far more meaningful than trying to appear indifferent. This week's challenge is to perform one intentional act of initiation every day. Whether it's making a call, sending a text, extending an invitation, or starting a conversation, small efforts to reach out can strengthen relationships and reflect the way we connect with both people and God.

    the one who want to make their life better

    In this episode of This Is Kingdom: A Good News Brand Podcast, Grace, Talon, TJ, and Hollis discuss President Henry B. Eyring’s talk Prayers for Peace. They explore how elevating our prayers can bring greater peace, confidence, perspective, and trust in God, sharing personal experiences of prayers that have strengthened their faith and changed their lives. The conversation dives into what makes prayer more meaningful, from expecting God to answer, to remembering who we are truly speaking to, to replacing routine phrases with sincere and intentional communication. They reflect on how prayer doesn't always remove challenges, but often changes us and gives us the strength to move forward with faith. This week’s challenge is simple: find one way to elevate your prayers. Whether it's praying out loud, creating a dedicated place to pray, visualizing yourself approaching God, or turning stress into prayer, small changes can deepen your connection with Him and bring greater peace into your life. 00:00 Introductory 00:49 Prayers for Peace 03:10 Prayer Builds Confidence 05:37 Prayer Changes Your Perspective 07:02 Visualizing Approaching God's Throne 10:25 Avoiding Repetitive Prayer Phrases 12:54 The Weekly Challenge: Elevate Your Prayers 14:22 Closing Song
