    E. 43 Repentance is not a checklist, it is a surrender DGF Ch. 13

    How do we avoid treating repentance like a checklist? Is repentance just stopping the wrong behavior? Today on The Divine Gift, Ryan and Gary are joined by Cloe Anderson, a student at Utah Valley University as they discuss Chapter 13 in The Divine Gift of Forgiveness. Cloe shares, "where you turn for comfort in crisis becomes your Christ." We hope this Christ centered, relationship based repentance focus can help you draw closer to our Savior, Jesus the Christ.

    E. 42 Overcoming the bully of Pride DGF 12.2

    Ryan and Gary are joined by Leah Little, as they discuss pride and how it acts as a bully in our lives. Elder Andersen in Chapter 12 of The Divine Gift of Forgiveness teaches that pride describes a swollen sense of self and a diminished view of God. Pride moves us away from the two great commandments. "Pride is your greatest enemy. Humility is your greatest friend." We hope this episode will help you in turning to Jesus Christ to overcome the bully of pride that we so often wrestle with.

    E. 41 Overcoming the bully of Fear DGF 12.1

    Our guest, Brinley Arnold, shares her perspective as a young adult and how the Savior has helped her overcome fear. Fear can be a major barrier in our relationship with God, Jesus Christ and in our repentance. We hope this episode provides tools and help in hushing your fears and casting out fear with love. 1 John 4:18, "There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear."

    E. 40 Justification by Faith with BYU Religion Professor Stephan Taeger

    Do you worry that you are not good enough or that your sins are too much? Do you wrestle with perfectionism? In this episode, BYU Religion Professor Stephan Taeger enlightens us about justification. Justification is, "to be pardoned from punishment for sin and declared guiltless. A person is justified by the Savior's grace through faith in Him. This faith is shown by repentance and obedience to the laws of the gospel." Your relationship with God is your foundation and the deepest kind of security. Enjoy the episode!

    E. 36 Offering our whole soul to God, DGF Chapter 10

    What does it mean to offer our whole soul to God? In this episode Ryan and Gary invite Gabby Adams onto the podcast to discuss this. Offering our whole soul means that we do not hold back. Offering our whole soul involves melding our will into God's will. Intentional, vocal prayer and spirit guided repentance, helps us to offer our whole soul. Whatever we can offer to God, He will accept. We invite you to consider what you can offer to God today and see how He takes your offering and creates something even more beautiful. Enjoy!
