    Sarah’s Miracle, Lot’s Fate

    This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe walks through a powerful and complex stretch of Genesis that places two lives side by side: Sarah, who trusted God for a miracle, and Lot, whose choices tied his heart to Sodom. In this episode, you’ll explore:  ✨ Sarah’s miracle what her promised son teaches us about faith, patience, and trusting God with what feels impossible  🏃 Lot’s escape from Sodom and what his family’s fate reveals about influence, hesitation, and the danger of looking back  🏔️ Why “the mountain” matters and how modern prophets echo the same invitation today: get to higher, holier ground These chapters remind us that miracles often require surrender—and safety often requires separation. So the question becomes: What are you trusting God with… and what are you still looking back at? This episode invites you to turn hard things over to the Lord, recognize miracles already in your life, and choose the higher ground again and again. Go & Do Challenge Turn our hard things over to the LordGGive gratitude for the miracles we have seen in our livesPray/fast for our family members who may need our helpGo and attend the temple and see the promises Pres.

    Camping OT Style

    What does camping have to do with covenants and why does the direction your tent faces actually matter? ⛺👀 This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe sets up camp with Abraham to help us understand one of the most important foundations of the Old Testament: covenants what they really are, why they matter, and how they shape our relationship with God and each other. In this episode, you’ll discover:  🏕️ What a covenant truly is not a checklist, but a two-way relationship where God sets the terms and we choose to trust and act 📜 The Abrahamic Covenant unpacked property, posterity, and priesthood—and why those promises still apply to us through baptism, the sacrament, and the temple 🧭 Why the way your “tent” faces matters what Abraham and Lot’s choices teach us about focusing our lives toward God or drifting toward the world Abraham trusted God and pitched his life toward Him. Lot looked a little too long toward Sodom and eventually moved in. This episode invites you to level the ground, understand your covenants more deeply, and intentionally orient your life toward God because trust grows where focus goes. Go & Do Challenge Read the block, specifically Gen. 12-17Go and be trusted by God and trust GodPitch your tent – your life – focused on GodEpisode Links Come, Follow Me If you like what you hear don't forget to follow and leave us a review!
