How Great Shall Be My Joy!
How Great Shall Be My Joy is a weekly podcast, put out on Sunday afternoons, to help the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints be more effective member missionaries. It includes both actual experiences and training tips on how to more effectively share the gospel with others by being an instrument in the Lord’s hands. My desire is that by listening to these podcasts, members of the Church will have more frequent, fun, and fulfilling member missionary experiences and eliminate the guilt that many members of the Church feel when member missionary work is discussed. (See D&C 18:15)

Episode 40: An Instrument in His Hands: Shawna Edwards' Christian Music
I've known her since high school. She was the accompanist for our acapella choir. She was really good.
In 2010, she uploaded her first music video to the new channel, Youtube. She hoped it would get 100 views. In three weeks, it got over 100,000 views.
Now, 14 years later, her Christian songs have been viewed over 50 million times!
Enjoy this podcast episode where I interview my friend of over 50 years to find out how she does what she does. Learn why she positions herself as a "Christian songwriter." Subscribe to her Youtube channel, @ShawnaEdwardsMusic. Enjoy her wonderful videos, including such hits as A Miracle and Risen.
Catch the vision of what a person can do by using their talents to make the world a better place like Shawna has done.
Listen as she tells some stories about what her music has done to help various people, including keeping one person alive.
It is an inspiring story of how Christian music can bring people closer to Christ, which is what member missionary work is all about.
Thank you, Shawna! Keep up the great work!
