0:00.0	Hi, Latter Day struggles, friends and fans.
0:03.1	We know that navigating a faith crisis can feel overwhelming, especially when it impacts our closest relationships, our parents, our partners, and our kids.
0:13.2	That's why Valerie has created two online self-paced classes to help.
0:17.3	The first is a couple's guide to faith crisis and expansion.
0:20.7	This class is here for a partner
0:21.9	or couple who want to navigate faith shifts with mutual respect and deeper connection. Next is
0:26.8	a family's guide to mixed faith parenting. This class offers tools to help parents develop
0:30.7	greater harmony and understanding when belief differences arise within our families. Both classes are
0:35.7	packed with helpful tools and perspectives that can
0:37.9	give you hope and a way forward. So if you're looking for a little guidance on this,

1:34.6	content episode on Friday, please jump back to that. What we talked about in the Friday episode,
1:40.4	we hit specific topics connected to the near enemy that are a little bit more advanced content.
1:46.8	And I will just review these topics and please go back and jump in for the deep dive into each
1:50.8	of these. In our last episode, we discussed how the checklist covenant path, obedience-based gospel,
1:59.4	is the near enemy of true transformation.
2:03.3	Then we moved on to topics connected to leadership.
2:07.4	The near enemy of a true leader is a manager.
