Jerusha Barden Biography : https://www.josephsmithpapers.org/person/jerusha-t-barden-smith

Tracy is a foster mom, heartsick and fearful about the sweet boy she has grown to love as her son.
McKaylee is a 22-year-old stake Relief Society president who is confused and angry when the Lord doesn't grant her heartfelt desire to serve a mission.
And Liliana is a recent convert and the daughter of Mexican immigrants, worried she needs to change who she is in order to fit in with the women around her.
What do these sisters all have in common? Through their struggles and questions, they each found support, belonging, and increased faith in Jesus Christ as members of the Relief Society.
Join us for this special bonus episode celebrating the 180th birthday of Relief Society featuring President Jean Bingham, Sister Sharon Eubank and Sister Reyna Aburto of the general Relief Society presidency. Sharing Tracy, McKaylee and Liliana’s inspiring stories and voices, the Relief Society presidency affirms their hope and vision that every woman in the Church knows she belongs in the Relief Society.

Life has taught Kristin Yee how to “jump”: to leave her comfort zone and leap into the unknown, trusting in God’s love and perfect plan. Following a spiritual prompting to leave art school in San Francisco, Kristin's journey of faith took her down an unexpected path-- one that ultimately led to her dream job working as an animator and producer for Disney for 13 years.
By sharing the personal revelation she has received and trusted, Kristin teaches listeners "what faith looks like." Through these exciting, and at times frightening, life changes and transitions, Kristin shares with humility and grace how she has learned to partner with the Savior, Jesus Christ for support, comfort, and validation.
Kristin was hired by the Church in 2016 as the animation team manager, and she currently serves on the Primary general advisory council.

There are more than 150 women named or referenced in the Bible, with dozens of female characters in the Old Testament alone. While not small in number, many of these women are not well known, and some are misunderstood as simple, less essential, or merely one-dimensional characters.
But what can the women in the Bible teach us about Jesus Christ, and how can their stories bring us closer to Him?
In this episode, Camille Fronk Olson, author and professor emeritus of ancient scripture at Brigham Young University shares how the study of women in scripture enhances our understanding of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and strengthens our faith in the Lord's ability to use ordinary people in His work. Camille shares story after story of faithful and inspiring women in the Old Testament, including Hagar, Hannah, Deborah, Abigail, Bathsheba, the daughters of Zelophehad, and more.
Camille teaches that even small efforts to understand the culture, history and context of the Old Testament will improve and enrich our understanding of the women in the Bible.
