This was discussion was so sacred. Thank you so much for having the spirit with you in your speaking.
I am so glad this is helpful for people!
I love this song even more. Thanks for sharing your friend with us!
Truly it was a delight!
This has been my most favorite song in the whole world since I first heard it. It has strengthened me so many times and this podcast has made me love it more. Thank you all for sharing your gifts.
So glad it helps!
This was a great episode! I really liked the backstory to the song, but more importantly, I really appreciate the message that the Lord will take care of those who trust in him. Doing art for the Lord is my way of choosing to be chosen but it does get stressful at times pursuing this path! It's a very encouraging message to just trust the Lord, and he will accept and magnify our efforts, no matter how humble. 😊
That is the key to so many things. We can do so much more if we just don't worry about our abilities, but rather move forward with whatever our abilities are and then trust that the Lord will make them more than enough!
I'M reading this a week late but I'm sure glad I came back to this! I loved hearing about the inspiration behind this song and Rogers testimony. Thank you for having him on!
He is wonderful, isn't he?
I had a wonderful experience with the song Reverently and Meekly now in the hymn book. I am choister in my ward. We were half way through the song before I realized the song was written in first person. That song changed my whole outlook on what is being said. Before they were just words, now Christ is pleading with us to follow His commandments so he can be the Savior to us that He came to be.

This is my most favourite song. I go to you tube and listen to The Tabernacle Choir sing it over and over. I just close my eyes and I am totally absorbed in the words and the music. Thank you
