In my first episode, I process the prophet’s passing and recent heartbreak, then share how Alma 12–14, guarding the Spirit, and a call to virtue softened my heart. I discuss why repentance matters, how peace returns, and why I’m finally starting this channel.

I don't know what happened from my phone to here - something went wacky. I wasn't using some crazy filter to erase my face. I will work that out for next time. Sorry!
If you'd like to read the book I talked about, Feasting on the Words of Christ you can get it here.

| 0:00.0 | This is Come Follow Me for us, a weekly podcast where we feast on the words of Christ and have fun doing it. |
| 0:07.7 | I'm your host, Melanie Straub. |
| 0:10.5 | Okay, when I went to go find the podcast from four years ago for this week, there wasn't one. |
| 0:17.8 | I can't find it. |
| 0:18.8 | I don't know what happened to it. |
| 0:20.0 | So what this is is the audio |
| 0:23.8 | extracted from the YouTube video that I made conversations about joy. I'm not going to put them |
| 0:31.7 | here every week. You're going to have to find them on YouTube because I felt really strong that these ones need to be on YouTube. |
| 0:39.9 | I don't know why. I didn't like seeing my face when I was recording it. And it was a lot harder |
| 0:45.3 | because my face was all pink and I don't even know what was going on. I much rather have you |

| 1:11.5 | because I've also been having trouble with people not getting emails when the podcast |
| 1:16.6 | goes out through my website. I don't know what the heck goes on with that. This way, if you sign up |
| 1:23.3 | over at Substack, the YouTube videos will automatically come to you, the Come Follow Me for |
| 1:29.1 | us podcasts will automatically drop over to you, and you will just get an email telling you |
| 1:34.2 | they're there. If you get the app on your phone, we can have conversations, you can get |
| 1:40.8 | transcripts, all sorts of fun stuff. So anyway, look for that in the show notes. |
| 1:46.0 | If you are already subscribed to my website, I will put an email out to you explaining all of |
