Doctrine and Covenants 29
In His final moments before Gethsemane, Christ prayed for something powerful—unity. But what does it actually mean to be ""one"" with God and each other? John explores the Savior's intercessory prayer, how it connects to the Atonement, and why unity is one of the most divine attributes we can develop. If you've ever felt disconnected from God or others, this discussion will give you fresh insight into Christ’s ultimate desire for His followers.

Doctrine and Covenants 27–28
If you had to choose one word that could change your spiritual life, what would it be? President Spencer W. Kimball once shared what he believed was the most important word in the gospel. John explores why that word appears so often in scripture, how it connects to the sacrament, and how it can keep us from falling into spiritual pride cycles. Once you know this, you’ll never see scripture study the same way again!
