Summary

Through personal experiences and opportunities in her current calling, Primary General Board member Sister Jennefer Free shares ways to take difficult or traumatic things and turn them into something that can bring joy. She encourages listeners to figure out how to make the gospel work in their lives, to be lifted and inspired rather than weighed down by “shoulds” or “to dos,” focusing on righteousness rather than striving for perfectionism. Turning to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ, making and keeping covenants, and developing habits of righteous devotion brings joy. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/callings/primary-organization/meet-the-primary-general-leaders/jennefer-h-free?lang=eng

0:48.1	messaging committee. We're excited to talk to you today just about your personal insights and
0:53.0	your experiences, especially with
0:54.5	serving on the board these last few years. Thank you. We wanted to start. We were interested

1:10.4	had grown, that you decided
