Living Eternal Truths in the Last Days: Celebrating 30 Years With The Family Proclamation (Ep. 65)

In this thought-provoking episode, Jenny and Lee explore how The Family: A Proclamation to the World provides both counsel and comfort as we prepare for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

They discuss the divine design of families, the challenges facing God’s children today, and the blessings that come from anchoring ourselves to eternal truths.

This conversation will help you see the proclamation not just as a statement of doctrine, but as a guide to living with faith and resilience in the last days.
