Brian's story of missionary shame, medical miracles, and a Savior that never gave up on him
Podcast:Come Back Podcast Published On: Sun Sep 14 2025 Description: "My testimony evolved a lot after I became a father. I could now relate in a different way than I'd ever understood before to what I think our Heavenly Father views with us in the trials that we go through. I think He is up at night, tears in His eyes sobbing because He knows the pain that we're going through, but He also knows that we need to go through it. The pain is part of what teaches us so much. Oftentimes it turns us into who we are because of how stark those lessons are."00:00 Struggles with Faith and Health05:31 Health Crisis in the MTC08:08 Struggles with Church and Faith12:36 Diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis25:29 Dealing with Resentment After Returning Home30:37 Advice for Early Returned Missionaries37:54 Mental Health and Youth Challenges44:09 Perfectionism and Parental PressureCozy Earth code COMEBACK for 40% off https://cozyearth.com/Mike's Auto Shackhttps://mikesautoshack.com/Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% offhttps://serveclothing.com/If you have a story to share please contact ashly.comebackpodcast@gmail.comFor inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.comCome Back Team:Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly StoneEditor: Cara ReedOutreach Manager: Jenna CarlsonAssistant Editor: Michelle BergerAssistant Editor: Britt SmallzeArt Director: Jeremy GarciaProduction Director: Trent Wardwell
