In this episode of the Nothing Doubting podcast, Rosalie tells about the investigation that happened after the surprising, transformative experience while reading the Book of Mormon from Episode 3. Rosalie discusses the internal conflict she faced between her doubts and the unexpected Presence of Divine Grace, emphasizing how her repeated experiences with the Presence challenged her previous understanding of grace as something earned rather than freely given by the Savior. She draws on scriptural examples, personal stories, and insights from interactions with others who were also observed to receive grace freely, encouraging listeners to explore their personal relationship with Jesus and accept the grace He offers. The episode concludes that Jesus meets us where we are, using grace to help us in the place we are stuck.
