"God is aware of you, aware of your doubts. He knows and understands you, and He wants to hear from you. He wants you to pray. I also want you to know that the Savior, He is there and He is real, and the atonement is big enough to handle all of your truth, all of your sin, everything. So when you're ready, you just lay it on the table and you pray and you tell the truth and get all of it off of your back, and it's such a relief."00:00 Lonely Mixed Faith Marriage07:04 Faith Crisis And Doubts10:05 Marriage Strain And Leaving15:05 First Prayer And Return24:39 Putting Garments Back On25:32 Grace For Joseph Smith27:41 Beyond A Scared Testimony29:20 Love Those Who Leave36:19 Honest Faith And HealingMike's Auto Shackhttps://mikesautoshack.com/Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% offhttps://serveclothing.com/If you have a story to share please submit here: https://comebackpodcast.org/submissions/For inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.comCome Back Team:Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly StoneEditor: Cara ReedOutreach Manager: Jenna CarlsonAssistant Editor: Britt SmallzeArt Director: Jeremy GarciaProduction Director: Trent Wardwell

"That just fills my heart with such love for Jesus Christ, that He would do that, that He would descend below me.

I just truly have had a change of heart."Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% offhttps://serveclothing.com/If you have a story to share please submit here: https://comebackpodcast.org/submissions/For inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.comCome Back Team:Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly StoneEditor: Cara ReedOutreach Manager: Jenna CarlsonAssistant Editor: Britt SmallzeArt Director: Jeremy GarciaProduction Director: Trent Wardwell

"I didn't think happiness existed in this capacity whatsoever. I'm so grateful that I never gave up. I encourage anybody listening who even considers giving up, don't do it. I promise you that there's good things to come, and grander than you could ever imagine. But you have to grow close to your Savior, and that doesn't mean you have to be doing all the right things. I'm just saying talk to Him and lean on Him and seek His presence in your life, and He will do the rest."00:00 A Stranger’s Lifeline06:13 Faith Roots and Early Signs13:23 Partying Spiral and California Call27:23 Ticket Out to BYU Idaho30:07 Jail Wake Up Call32:22 Bishop and 12 Step Struggle39:30 Hope Rescue and Sobriety47:29 New Life and TestimonyMike's Auto Shackhttps://mikesautoshack.com/Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% offhttps://serveclothing.com/If you have a story to share please submit here: https://comebackpodcast.org/submissions/For inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.comCome Back Team:Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly StoneEditor: Cara ReedOutreach Manager: Jenna CarlsonAssistant Editor: Britt SmallzeArt Director: Jeremy GarciaProduction Director: Trent Wardwell

"I just believe that God is found in the messiness. We just need to have faith that even when it makes no sense and nothing seems to be working, that it's in that very messiness that He will find us. That's how it's supposed to be. It's not supposed to be clean and linear. It's meandering and messy and crazy, and then He reaches through the fog of that, and He finds us."00:00 Conformity and Agency14:59 Family Faith Crisis Begins30:35 Why People Step Away48:00 Let Them Choose51:37 Agency Changes Everything01:03:20 Repairing Ruptures01:10:06 Gatherers Not SiftersServe Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% offhttps://serveclothing.com/If you have a story to share please submit here: https://comebackpodcast.org/submissions/For inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.comCome Back Team:Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly StoneEditor: Cara ReedOutreach Manager: Jenna CarlsonAssistant Editor: Britt SmallzeArt Director: Jeremy GarciaProduction Director: Trent Wardwell

"When things don't go the way you think they should or fit in the box, it's so easy to feel like, oh I failed, or God doesn't love me, or things like that. But that is not true.
