Podcast Episode 28: Joy at the Piano (“Come, Ye Children of the Lord”)

The other day, I was at my mother’s home in Spanish Fork, Utah. I enjoy playing her piano, and she enjoys hearing me play it. For some reason, I started playing my own arrangement of Come, Ye Children of the Lord. Prior to that day, I had never played that song on the piano. The […]

Joy with the Baseball Cap

Today I saw a man from behind, who was sitting on the steps outside of a 7-Eleven. I thought he was a panhandler, but I was wrong. What caught my attention was the back of his baseball cap. I passed by him, went into the store, came back out, and walked across the parking lot […]

Podcast Episode 21: Joy at the Gas Station!

Sometimes member missionary experiences happen because you notice someone else’s efforts to spread the good news. That’s what happened when I exited a small gas station market in McLean, Virginia recently. Positioned on top of the sanitizing towel dispenser, which is on the right side of the exiting doorway, were some Spanish religious postcards promoting […]

Podcast Episode 15: Joy at the Muslim Dinner

If you want to be involved in member missionary work, it’s important that you associate with people not of your faith! Attending dinners designed to strengthen mutual understanding and respect between various religious groups is a great place to do that. In my case I was invited to attend the American Muslim Institution dinner in […]

I met Jackie as she walked along the sidewalk towards my car one day in between church meetings. Jackie went on to take the lessons and join the Church. Now, […]

Podcast Episode 19: Joy with the Dining Room Set Delivery

Sometimes member missionary experiences happen right in the middle of the workday. That’s what happened to me a few days ago when I delivered a  dining room set to a woman in Chevy Chase, Maryland. This was not a coincidence. With the recent passing of her mother, similarity between the dining room sets, and our […]

Podcast Episode 20: It’s All About the Receiver

Successful member missionary work is always about the other person. Some people are open minded; some people are closed minded. You cannot control that. Just do your best with the situations that are placed in your pathway and you will always be successful! I experienced that recently on a flight across the country. Enjoy this […]

As I have these various and continuous missionary experiences over the years, I often call my mother to tell her about it.  She follows my stories with joy.  She often asks me in the middle of a conversation if I’ve “…given out any Articles of Faith cards lately…”  The answer is usually “Yes!” Today, however, […]
