A father raises six children while learning that the greatest legacy isn't success—it's a daily relationship with Jesus Christ. A military pilot discovers that miracles rarely look the way we expect. A bishop learns that imperfect leaders can wound us, but they never have the power to separate us from a perfect Savior.Each experience feels like a single thread. Only looking back do they reveal the pattern God was weaving all along.This isn't a story about a man who always had unshakable faith.It's about how Christ patiently built it—one prayer, one disappointment, one miracle, and one quiet answer at a time.If you've ever wondered whether God still speaks... or whether He's speaking to you... this conversation may change the way you recognize His voice.CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction: A Difficult Experience with a Church Leader00:47 Meet Glenn Curtis: A Life of Faith, Family, and Service03:51 Looking Back with Gratitude: Recognizing the Lord's Hand04:49 A Four-Year-Old's Prayer That Built a Testimony06:07 A Missionary's Turning Point Through Repentance and Revelation09:39 Protected by the Lord on the Green River13:07 Building a Christ-Centered Home Through Daily Scripture Study17:36 When Church Leaders Disappoint: Keeping Your Testimony Intact28:07 How Do You Forgive Imperfect Church Leaders?30:12 Personal Revelation: Knowing God Knows You34:23 Pivots, Forks, and Trusting God's Direction35:13 Receiving Revelation Through Church Callings45:01 Compassion Over Condemnation: Leading Like the Savior47:17 The Blessings of Staying on the Covenant Path54:55 Final Testimony of Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost
