When Heaven hands you another chance at life, what legacy will you protect for your bloodline?

This Sunday on Latter-Day Lights, hosts Scott and Alisha welcome Joseph Smith Skeen to the show. As a direct descendant of Hyrum Smith, Joe unveils how near-death and a second chance at life became the spark that led him to safeguard his ancestor’s relics—from Alvin’s toolbox that once cradled the gold plates, to Hyrum’s bullet-scarred pocket watch, and even Civil War rifles used at Carthage.

Now an author of devotional books drawn from decades of faith-driven experiences, Joe weaves God’s calling, family heirlooms, and profound revelations into a testimony that proves the Lord can preserve hearts and history all at once.

Tune in to Joe’s story to discover how tangible relics and personal miracles intertwine, leaving you with fresh resolve to trace, treasure, and testify to the sacred narratives in your own family for generations to come.

When decades of lies and betrayal suddenly unravel, can the atonement stitch a marriage back together?

On today’s episode of Latter-day Lights, we meet Heather and Cameron Berry—a couple whose world collapsed the instant one accidental photo exposed Cameron’s hidden, 30-year pornography addiction. In a single breath, trust was gone, and a once-steady marriage felt like moments from ending.

Yet, from inside the wreckage, a different kind of miracle began to form.

Through individual healing, and applying the “belief breakthrough” technique, the Berry's traded silence for radical honesty. And in turn, witnessed Christ transform secrecy into sacred intimacy.

The Berry's discovered that the atonement is more than a doctrine—it’s a rescue mission; and that sexuality is far from weaponry—it’s a crowning gift.

If you’ve ever wondered whether betrayal is the end-all be-all of a love story, Cameron and Heather’s journey shows how the Savior can write an even stronger chapter than the one that came before.

When trials get steep and hope runs thin, what keeps you hanging on to faith?

This Sunday, our 5-part “Faith to Stay” miniseries reaches its finale with a candid round-table discussion on “Enduring to the End.” Latter-Day Lights hosts Scott Brandley and Alisha Coakley welcome viral missionary Carter Ellis, and faith-forged father Jon Coakley—to unpack why staying aboard the gospel “ship” matters more than ever.

From Carter’s galvanizing testimony that ignited social-media firestorms, to Jon’s revelation on Christ always walking beside the weary, each story pulls back the curtain on what faith looks like when life won’t let up, why admitting “spiritual fatigue” isn’t failure, and how remembering our divine lineage reframes every setback.

If you’ve ever felt the jaws of doubt closing in—this conversation will remind you that enduring doesn’t mean clinging by sheer willpower; it’s learning to reach back for the Savior who never quits on you.
