Hello, my friends. Welcome to another follow him favorite. My name's Hank Smith. I'm here

with the wonderful John by the way. Hi, John. Hi, Hank. John, you know the drill. We're

going to take one question from this week's lesson and come follow me. The question this

week comes from these stories about Paul. Johnny is so bold in his testimony. How can we be

more bold like Paul in sharing the gospel in testifying? You know, that's a good question

with our children. And to bear testimony, maybe not in formal ways. I think Elder Bednar would say

there are times to formal testimonies, but at home, they can be normal, natural way of just talking

about your life. Oh, you know what you just said there, you say to that reminds, what's that
