Hey everybody, Wayfair Issue 6 is just about ready to mail out and you are not going to want to miss this one.

We've asked some of the best thinkers we know to explore the concept of prophecy and what it means for us in the 21st century.

And we've put together a beautiful magazine with full color art and work by writers like Adam Miller, Hannah Packard Crowther, James Goldberg, Camilla Stark, Matt Bowman, Jenny Richards, Terrell Givens, and many more.

We're putting these in the mail on December 1st, so don't delay, become a paid subscriber today at Wayfairmagine.org slash subscribe.

Hey, everybody, this is Aubrey Chavez from Faith Matters. Today we are so excited to share a session from this year's Restore Gathering with Mallory Everton.

Mallory is best known for her work on the sketch comedy show, Studio C. And in this session, she asks a question that she says she's been asking her whole life.

Do Latterty Saints have a problem with laughter? She explores how in the context of spirituality, humor sometimes gets

sidelined, dismissed as loud, irreverent, or frivolous. But she really pushes back on that

assumption and flips the idea on its head. Laughter, she argues, isn't a distraction from spiritual

life. It's a spiritual practice in its own right, one that roots us in the present, binds us to

each other, and softens us toward the present, binds us to each other, and

softens us toward the divine. She walks us through what actually makes us laugh and invites us to

consider that when Jesus said to become like little children, he may have been pointing us

toward a life that's playful, open, and easily delighted. And yes, she tells some unforgettable

stories that had the whole room in tears of

laughter. If you attend to Restore in person, you can watch all of these sessions for free.

Otherwise, recordings are available for purchase at faithmatters.org slash restore.

And I also want to mention that you can watch this presentation on our YouTube channel if you want

to see Mallory up on stage. She's got some great slides and she's so fun to watch.

And with that, here's Mallory Everton at Restore.

Hey, hey everybody.

I'm Mallory Everton. I'm really happy to be here.
