  • 68 - Lynette
    2026/04/20

    Devin and Sarah go to the Lewis home in Orem to meet up with Lynette while she's in town. Lynette shares memories of her cousins and family before Devin shares memories he gathered from Lynettes family, beginning with her upbringing in a large family in Springfield, Oregon. Growing up as one of thirteen siblings, she developed a strong sense of connection, faith, and resilience early on. A defining moment came when she felt prompted to serve a mission, which was later confirmed through a dream and the announcement lowering the missionary age.

    Lynette was called to serve in Curitiba, Brazil, though her path there wasn’t immediate. She spent several months serving in South Carolina before transitioning to Brazil, where she learned Portuguese and grew significantly through the challenges of missionary life. Her time on the mission helped shape her confidence, leadership, and testimony.

    After returning home, Lynette eventually met her husband, Ian—despite an earlier attempt by a mutual connection to introduce them that didn’t work out at the time. Their relationship developed later and led to marriage. Since then, their life has included medical training, moves across different states, and building a family together, all while staying close to their values and maintaining strong relationships along the way.

  • 67 - Whitney
    2026/04/12

    Whitney and Derek share a warm, thoughtful conversation about family, faith, and the moments that shaped their life together. Whitney reflects on growing up in the Anderson family, remembering cousins, reunions, and the love of a large extended family that gave her a sense of belonging from an early age. She also shares meaningful memories of aunts and uncles whose kindness, service, and simple words of wisdom left a lasting mark on her life.

    The episode also tells the story of how Whitney and Derek met. Their first connection came in college at BYU, where they crossed paths through Logan, and their relationship developed later as friendship turned into something deeper. Derek talks about one of his earliest introductions to the Anderson family: attending a big family reunion and stepping into a world full of music, stories, laughter, and deep family connection. That experience gave him a glimpse not only of Whitney’s family, but of the kind of home and heritage that had shaped her.

    Whitney and Derek also talk about marriage, medical school, mission experiences, church service, and life as parents raising four boys. They reflect on the joy and chaos of family life, the blessings of serving in the Church, and the ways the gospel has anchored them through different seasons and moves. Their stories paint a picture of a home filled with energy, faith, and a sincere desire to keep Christ at the center.

    A central theme of the episode is the counsel they would pass on to their posterity. Whitney speaks powerfully about finding happiness through Jesus Christ, family relationships, and following the prophet. Together, she and Derek share a testimony of prophetic guidance, temple covenants, and building a home centered on faith. This episode is a tender reminder that family is one of God’s greatest gifts, and that lasting joy comes from keeping an eternal perspective.

  • 66 - Charlotte
    2026/04/05

    Devin interviews his sister Charlotte via Zoom. Ironically, though they see each other a few times a year, they decided to try the interview this way instead.

    Charlotte talks about her name, memories of cousins, aunts uncles, and our grandparents. Devin shares memories he collected from siblings, as well as his own memories of Charlotte from when they were younger.

    Ben brings a unique perspective as he grew up around many of the Andersen families near the farm. He and Charlotte tell the story of how they met and got engaged, as well as Ben's love and appreciation for the Andersen family.

    Due to time constraints, there wasn't a final topic, but Ben and Charlotte did share the message they would want their posterity to hear.
