S3E13 When life gets hard - The Prayer of Lament Artwork

The Articulate Women Podcast

We are talking to women in the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints about how they are articulate in their faith, and find more clarity through their trials. Becoming an articulate woman in the last days is not just about speaking clearly without mumbling—it is about sharing from the heart and bearing a strong testimony of what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. Join host Melissa Buckley as she interviews women about their unique journeys towards articulateness and what it means to them to more fully communicate their personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
