Customer Reviews
A Shining Gem in The Dark
Ryan has a unique pulse on these issues and truths.
He brings light to them in a beautiful way.
Each interview is like a gem in the dark, bringing direction for ways to navigate that specific topic.
As far as the host goes I have full confidence in Ryan. We were roommates together for two semesters and it was a treasure and a joy.
He cares so deeply about these things, and I am inspired by all he’s doing, learning, and experiencing.
Make space in your calendar for this podcast.
It will fill your life with more light, truth, and heart for sure. Most importantly, you’ll get to know the Lord better. I know for sure that it’s helped me do that. Keep up the good work, Ryan!
:)
Love it! So helpful.
Trial of faith? Listen to this podcast!
I don’t know how you don’t have more ratings. We gotta work on that! :) I LOVE this podcast. A member of my ward told me about it. My husband left the church almost a decade ago and has been atheist most of that time and how I wish he was in a place to listen to all of these episodes! They’ve strengthened my faith and given me tools to use when approached by others struggling with faith issues. I know you’re not a professional podcaster with all the bells and whistles but you’re doing an amazing job helping those in a trial of faith I’m sure! U you our guests are stellar and I appreciate each and every one of them. I’ve subscribed to new sites, fb pages, bought books and listened to YouTube videos suggested in all these. 👌🏻👌🏻❤️❤️
