25. How a Simple YW Camp Hike Became a Witness of Christ’s Atonement
Episode Summary
What if your heaviest struggles could become sacred reminders of Christ’s love?
In today’s episode of Sunshine in the Middle, I share a deeply personal story that taught me a powerful lesson about the Atonement of Jesus Christ.
When I was serving as a Young Women’s president, we planned a camp hike that turned into a sacred, unforgettable experience centered on Christ’s ability to carry our burdens. I’ll walk you through how a simple idea with rocks turned into a powerful, spirit-filled lesson—and how it ultimately changed me.
Along the way, I’ll share scriptures that have anchored me, moments when I pleaded for help, and the tender mercies I received that reminded me He truly carries us.
This isn't just a story, it's my testimony—one I hope will help you see the Savior in your life, too.
Thanks for listening! I'm truly honored.
