In this week's episode, we welcome our dad, Chad Miller, who is an ordained temple sealer for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He shares profound insights and personal stories about the sacred blessings of temple marriage and eternal covenants.

Brother Miller reflects on the joy he observes in couples at the altar, the lasting power of agency in the next life, and the comforting truth that no righteous desire will be denied, even when life doesn’t unfold as expected. He also compassionately discusses sensitive topics such as plural marriage, offering reassurance grounded in God’s love and our eternal freedom to choose.

A touching story about a family member’s mission and a spiritual prompting from the other side reminds us that temple work connects us across the veil and that heaven is invested in our efforts.

We conclude with a quote from Elder Christofferson’s talk, "The Sealing Power," which underscores how temple covenants reflect God's justice, mercy, and love.

If you’ve ever had questions about temple sealings, eternal families, or how God’s plan relates to your unique life story, this conversation provides hope, clarity, and peace.

What’s the real difference between the righteous and the wicked?
In this mini episode, we talk about a simple but powerful truth: the difference isn’t perfection—it’s repentance. As active members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we share insights from the Book of Mormon and quotes from Sister Tamara W. Runia’s most recent General Conference talk, “Your Repentance Doesn’t Burden Jesus Christ; It Brightens His Joy.”

This episode is a reminder that righteousness is less about where you are, and more about which way you're facing. Whether you feel strong in your faith or like you’re starting over, repentance is the path—and it’s filled with hope.
