  • Stories of Danger, Miracles, and Faith from the Bering Sea: Jake and PJ Jacobsen - Latter-Day Lights
    Sep 15 2024

    We often talk about navigating life's storms with faith and resilience, but what if that's your actual job?

    Jake Jacobsen, a seasoned Bering Sea crab Captain, recounts harrowing tales of survival, miraculous interventions, and spiritual insights that have carried him through incredibly dangerous waters and unimaginable hardships.

    His wife PJ, with grace and strength, describes how she found peace amid the storms, trusting Heavenly Father to watch over her husband and family. Together, they reveal how their deep love for each other and their steadfast belief in God's plan have been their anchor through life's tempests.

    This is more than just a story of surviving the sea—it’s a powerful testament to God's presence in our lives, even in the midst of overwhelming darkness.

    The Jacobsen's' story is a beacon of hope, reminding us that, no matter how fierce the storms we face, we never need to question God's love.

  • Viewing Your Faith and Life Story Through "Context Lenses": Alan Smith - Latter-Day Lights
    Sep 1 2024

    Sometimes, life’s toughest challenges can lead us to our most profound discoveries.

    In this episode of Latter-day Lights, Alan Smith shares how the heartbreaking loss of his infant son set him on a journey of self-discovery through the Spirit.

    He explains how looking through our "context lenses"—the stories and beliefs that shape our perspective—can help us see life more clearly and find peace, even in tough times. Alan's journey reminds us that by adjusting our lenses, we can better understand God's guidance in our lives.

    Alan’s unique love for shoes and his exploration of his faith show that everyone’s path is different, and faith isn’t one-size-fits-all. His story encourages us to embrace our own journey, recognizing that every step, no matter how unconventional, is part of God’s plan for us.

I love this podcast!

This is real people sharing their faith building life experiences. I feel inspired by every episode. I only gave a 4 star on performance because the sound quality is less than ideal but I’m confident as this show grows so will the recording quality.
