A powerful conversation blending music, prophecy, pioneer faith, and modern revelation to prepare Latter-day Saints for coming trials and the gathering of Zion.

In this special episode of Zion Media, you’re invited into a deeply personal and spiritual conversation with playwright Larry and composer Michael Mackley as they share the miraculous journey behind their new musical John and Romina. What began as a story of pioneer love evolved into a prophetic message for our time—one that speaks directly to the trials, faith, and decisions modern Saints must face.

As you listen, you’ll discover how the Holy Ghost guided Larry step-by-step to Nauvoo, opening the way for a musical that weaves together sacred history, temple covenants, and divine warnings. Michael shares how his own reconversion to the gospel and his musical gifts were divinely aligned to bring life to “Courage in Christ,” a song that embodies the spirit of the early Saints and the courage we’ll need in the days ahead.

You’ll also hear heartfelt testimonies from Latter-day Chad and David ‘The Lion’ Douglas about how revelation, heartbreak, and spiritual awakening connect to the themes of the play. This conversation isn’t just about a musical—it’s a call to examine your foundation. Are you living on borrowed light, or have you found your own?

If you’ve ever wondered what the pioneers felt as they stood on Parley Street, what we may be called to sacrifice in the last days, or how the Spirit uses art, music, and storytelling to prepare us for Zion, this episode is for you. Watch the full conversation and let the Spirit speak to your heart.

After losing nearly everything, an LDS attorney was led by God to Isaiah—uncovering the true role of the Davidic Servant and how we can each become one.

You are about to witness one of the most powerful and spiritually rich conversations we’ve ever hosted on Zion Media. In this episode, you’ll meet David Clarke—a Latter-day Saint, an attorney, a father of six, and a man who was suddenly struck with a debilitating illness that left him paralyzed and bedridden for over a decade. But instead of giving up, David turned to the scriptures. What began as a search for meaning during unimaginable suffering led him to an unexpected calling: to study Isaiah with such depth and devotion that it would lead to a full PhD dissertation on the Davidic Servant.

As you watch, you’ll hear David’s raw, personal account of how the Lord used his trial to awaken something eternal in him—something he may have covenanted to do long before this life. You’ll come to understand how Isaiah, which once felt distant or confusing to so many Latter-day Saints, became the air he breathed, revealing insights into the Davidic Servant that few have explored this thoroughly. This isn’t just another speculative discussion—it’s grounded in scholarship, discipleship, and deep spiritual transformation.

You’ll also be introduced to ideas that might challenge and expand your understanding of prophecy, leadership, and divine calling. What does it mean to be a true servant in the last days? How can you recognize those God has sent—and how might you be one of them yourself? David walks us through what true spiritual leadership looks like through the lens of Isaiah’s servant songs and the Savior’s teachings. He explains why the real servant doesn’t proclaim himself, but is revealed by God, and why true discipleship often comes through pain, humility, and quiet perseverance.

This conversation is not just about David Clarke. It’s about you. If you’ve felt the weight of your own trials or wondered whether your suffering has meaning—this video was made for you. If you’ve sensed that something in you was foreordained, that you were meant to awaken in this generation, this message will confirm those impressions. The Lord is gathering His people. And in that gathering, He’s raising up not just one servant—but many.
