Hey everyone, it's Jen and Sam Norton here, authors of Come as You are.

We are so excited to announce that we'll be speaking at Restore this year, September the 25th through the 27th in Orem, Utah.

We're going to be sharing some international perspectives from the UK, and specifically how our young people in both youth and young adults are being supported in their personal faith experiences.

We are really looking forward to being with you and hearing from all the other incredible speakers and musicians.

And you can learn more and get your tickets at faith matters.org. We hope to see you there.

Hey everybody, this is Aubrey Chavez from Faith Matters.

Nearly 200 years ago, Joseph Smith gave us a holistic code of health called the Word of Wisdom.

But over the next century, we've largely reduced that revelation to a list of don'ts,

one that has come to define us as a church and serve as a kind of status marker within the church.

So now, as we look ahead to the next hundred years,

we're asking if it's time to rethink how we see this revelation.

Today we face an overwhelming number of choices about what we put into our bodies,

some deeply harmful, others profoundly nourishing,

and we now understand far more about health, nutrition, and the body itself.

So are there principles in Section 89 that transcend the context in which it was given?

What did we miss when we transformed it from a principle with promise to a set list of prohibitions

that defined worthiness?

Is our current approach a stumbling block as we take the gospel into other cultures?

And what about that curious issue of hot drinks?

That's the conversation we're having today.

I'm joined by Bill Turnbull, one of the founders of Faith Matters and a voice you probably recognize.

And Ali Essig, who will be speaking at Restore this year, she's a nutritionist and founder of Plantwise.
