Episode 65 | How to Know If You Should Serve a Mission

How do you know if you should serve an LDS mission? And how do you know what God wants you to do with your life?

In this episode, I share my personal story of wrestling through the decision to serve, the spiritual principles that helped me receive personal revelation, and what I believe is the more important question everyone must answer first: To whom or to what will you give your life?

We talk about trusting God’s timing, overcoming fear and outside pressure, starting down a path even when you don’t have perfect clarity, and learning how to hear the still small voice. Whether you’re considering serving a mission, supporting someone who is, or navigating a completely different life decision, these principles apply far beyond 18 months of service.

Ultimately, this episode isn’t just about whether to go. It’s about building a relationship with God strong enough to guide every decision you’ll ever face, and trusting that when you turn your life over to Him, He will lead you exactly where you’re meant to be.
