What does it really mean to bring people in? To Christ, to light, and to belonging?

In this soul-filling conversation, Audra sits down with her dear friend Lana to explore what Christlike gathering looks like in everyday life. Together, they talk about how Jesus Christ invites, heals, and gathers hearts through scripture study, temple worship, generosity, hospitality & simple actions.

Lana shares tender insights about learning from the temple during a season of post-partum depression, how simple phrases from scripture can strengthen our testimony of Christ, and how the Lord uses our unique gifts to bless others. You’ll hear reflections on consecration, loneliness, motherhood & creating meaningful connection with unlikely people.

This episode is for anyone who wants to:

• Feel less alone
• Strengthen their relationship with Jesus Christ
• Learn how gathering can look simple, imperfect & still create strong relationships
• Find gentle invitations to act without adding more pressure

Whether gathering looks like opening your home, offering a sincere compliment, asking for help, or simply noticing the people God places in your path, this conversation will encourage you to trust that everyone has a place at the table.

Come gather with us.

It's the start of a new year and most of us are doing some reflecting, re-evaluating, starting, stopping, etc.

But have you taken time to ponder your testimony?

This new series is all about CURRENT testimonies of Jesus Christ. Before we dive in and hear from some amazing women on what their testimony looks like right now, I wanted to give you a little peek into where this idea came from.

You'll hear a powerful testimony from President Dallin H Oaks and how scripture stories have helped shape his testimony of Christ throughout his life. And how we can use life transitions as a catalyst to develop our testimonies in new ways.

As always, you'll walk away from this short episode with an invitation you can act on this coming week. Thanks for being here!

Are you a one big gift person or do you prefer a gift basket (or stocking stuffers)?

In this end of year episode of the Where We Gather podcast, Audra is sharing her reflections on an invitation she accepted at the beginning of the year.

You'll hear about the miracle of the loaves and fishes from John 6 in the New Testament and what happens when you give your own gifts to the Lord.

You walk away from this episode with an invitation that puts a very intentional twist on the idea of making goals for the year ahead - one that will certainly help you grow closer to Christ and experience the gift of gratitude more fully.
