    How would your understanding of the Creation and Fall change if they were meant to teach us about growth, unity with God, and reliance on Christ rather than science of shame? Dr. Rebekah Call explores the symbolic beauty of these stories, showing how the Fall was part of God’s “Plan A” and how Christ’s Atonement lovingly covers our inadequacy and restores our connection with Him.

I can't oversell this, it's just superb, great guests every episode, consistently good insights, I've been listening to the whole catalogue and it's a great education so far. this is the first podcast I've ever listened to without driving or being busy with something else. it's a must listen for anyone LDS (or LDS curious)

So great to see something faith promoting

Great Podcast, very very high quality.
