A Calling Unlike any other, An LDS Bishop's Journey Through Loss and Faith

Description



When an inactive teenager named Jason received an unexpected challenge from his bishop, who happened to be named Moroni, everything changed. After years away from church, this single conversation sparked a mission to France that transformed his entire life trajectory. But Jason's real test of faith came later as a father and bishop. In this episode, Jason shares his family's journey through his son's premature birth and over 20 brain surgeries for hydrocephalus, the devastating loss of his business during COVID, and the unthinkable tragedy of losing his daughter in a car accident. Now serving as a bishop himself, Jason reveals how these trials taught him that we can either turn away from God or fall to our knees, and why choosing to turn toward Him brings a peace that nothing else can provide. His story shows that even in our darkest moments, God's compensatory blessings and the healing power of Christ's atonement can carry us through anything.
