Dropped in YOUR Pathway-The Conversion of Michael Seay is a great podcast to listen to. He just might be the best member missionary in the Church. He is certainly one of the most loving people on the planet. I believe that gift of loving others is the key to his success as a member missionary-and […]

Two days ago, I went to southwest Washington, D.C. to clean out a crawl space. Because the space had only about 6 feet of clearance above, and I am 6’3″ tall, I had my buddy climb down the steep stairs and toss boxes and other junk up to me. It was then my job to […]

Meet Clayton and Marla Foulger, two of the best people on the planet. They had the privilege of being involved with Yitbarek and his family’s conversion. Their humble attitude about member missionary work is inspiring and instructive. Their story about Elder Eyring, while they presided over the London Mission, is priceless. Catch the spirit of […]

Sometimes member missionary experiences happen because you notice someone else’s efforts to spread the good news. That’s what happened when I exited a small gas station market in McLean, Virginia recently. Positioned on top of the sanitizing towel dispenser, which is on the right side of the exiting doorway, were some Spanish religious postcards promoting […]

If you want to be involved in member missionary work, it’s important that you associate with people not of your faith! Attending dinners designed to strengthen mutual understanding and respect between various religious groups is a great place to do that. In my case I was invited to attend the American Muslim Institution dinner in […]

In October 2019, I made a quick trip to Detroit Michigan to visit the Detroit Michigan Temple. To get from the hotel to the temple, I took my first Lyft ride. I’m glad I did! My Lyft driver was named Chantil. She had been driving for Lyft for about five weeks. She was a terrific […]

I was supposed to be on a plane to Utah tonight. For various reasons, I decided to stay home. Around 8 o’clock I was listening to a song performed by the Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square. I had the thought, “That would be a fun song to play on the piano.” So I walked over […]

Sometimes member missionary experiences happen right in the middle of the workday. That’s what happened to me a few days ago when I delivered a dining room set to a woman in Chevy Chase, Maryland. This was not a coincidence. With the recent passing of her mother, similarity between the dining room sets, and our […]

Successful member missionary work is always about the other person. Some people are open minded; some people are closed minded. You cannot control that. Just do your best with the situations that are placed in your pathway and you will always be successful! I experienced that recently on a flight across the country. Enjoy this […]

Today I went to Catonsville, Maryland to do our first job. Unbeknownst to me, I was about to experience some joy at the gas pump. When I pulled into a gas station there, this is what I saw: Start With Common Ground Now honestly, how many times in your life do you see someone wearing […]
