Today's episode features Rob Dean, who is currently serving on our State High Council and is a lifelong disciple of Deep Roots in Germany and a powerful testimony shaped by prayer, obedience, and miracles. Rob grew up in a family that found the gospel when missionaries knocked the wrong door and that providential mistakes set a course for generations. Rob shares a former childhood story, a family prayer and a quiet prompting that led them to leave a sunny fishing spot, only to learn the next day that a flash flood had claimed over hundred lives there.

It's a witness of how prayer and heeding the spirit protect and Called to the Frankfurt, Germany mission, was late later among the first missionaries welcomed into East Germany after decades without proselyting. He recounts checkpoints, sacred meetings with church leaders and the faith of saints who had waited 50 years. You'll hear about cottage meetings, member led invitations and the midnight baptism of a local communist youth leader who found the courage to pray and followed Christ despite real personal risk. Rob's message is simple and actionable: love, share, invite.

From university friends in Freiburg to colleagues in corporate America, he shows how small acts of kindness open hearts to Jesus Christ. Stay tuned to hear how obedience brought miracles, how a hand-written copy of President Monson's Dressed in Prayer was fulfilled before Rob's eyes, and how the fall of the Berlin Wall reshaped missionary work overnight. This conversation will strengthen your faith and give you practical ways to be a peacemaker and a national missionary wherever you are.
