Episode 5

In this episode of Transformative Truths: Quotes for Learning, Growing & Becoming, Dr. Wally Goddard and Sarah Waldron Brinton reflect on 2 Nephi 26:24 — “He doeth not anything save it be for the benefit of the world; for he loveth the world…”

Together they explore what it means that Jesus Christ gave up everything — every hobby, every personal pursuit — to devote His entire being to blessing us. Through Nephi’s insight and Tad Callister’s reminder that “all of God’s faculties are poised and bent on blessing,” Wally and Sarah discuss the powerful doctrine of consecration: God’s tireless devotion to His children and His unending joy in being merciful.

With tender personal examples, they invite us to see ourselves as children of a God who never takes a break from loving us — and to give Him more opportunities to bless us by turning toward Him.

Episode 4

In this episode of Transformative Truths: Quotes for Learning, Growing & Becoming, Dr. Wally Goddard and Sarah Waldron Brinton explore the radical concept of yielding ourselves fully to God. Drawing from the timeless words of François Fénelon, they reflect on what it means to surrender control, trust completely, and allow God’s will to shape our lives. With personal stories of loss, faith, and unexpected blessings, Wally and Sarah illustrate how consecration and trust in God’s purposes can bring peace, even in life’s deepest challenges.

This week’s challenge: Instead of presenting our plans to God and asking Him to follow along, practice saying, “I submit to Thee. I trust Thy will.” Watch how He transforms your perspective when you yield yourself fully.
