S5 E5. A New Beginning Through Jesus Christ

As Christmas fades and a new year approaches, many of us instinctively turn inward—evaluating, resolving, and quietly pressuring ourselves to do better next time. In this episode, Scott and Deb offer a different invitation. Instead of carrying the weight of change alone, they explore what it means to begin again through Jesus Christ. Drawing on Elder Patrick Kearon’s powerful reminder that the Savior offers real new beginnings—“even you”—they contrast self-improvement with redemption, willpower with grace, and resolutions with relationship. This conversation is for everyone who feels tired, discouraged, or afraid of repeating the past, and for anyone who needs the reminder that new beginnings are not symbolic ideas—they are doctrinal realities, available now, because Jesus Christ lives.
