Ruth Todd | Building Bridges

Author: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints March 31, 2021 Duration: 36:55
"The sisterhood we share in the gospel crosses all kinds of boundaries and barriers. We are there to lift each other and help each other; sometimes we're down, and sometimes we lift others who are down, but we are in this together." Ruth Todd joins us to discuss her opportunities and lessons learned from her successful career as a news anchor and journalist, the exciting and challenging time she spent as a Church spokesperson, and her responsibilities serving as a member of the Young Women General Advisory Council. She talks about the importance of building bridges and making connections that help us learn from and love others. She shares her insights from the new Young Women theme and the value in aligning our identities with being a daughter of Heavenly Parents. Ruth also encourages listeners to do the best they can while putting the gospel first, through all the chapters of life.

Within the vast tapestry of faith, individual voices create the most enduring threads. The Latter-day Saint Women Podcast focuses on these voices, weaving together personal narratives and spiritual insights from women across the globe. This isn't a lecture series, but a collection of conversations and stories that feel like sitting down with a thoughtful friend. You'll hear from historians exploring the lives of pioneering women whose choices helped build communities, and you'll listen to contemporary members discuss how they navigate modern challenges with gospel principles. Each episode of this podcast feels grounded and real, addressing topics like resilience, service, discipleship, and personal revelation through the lens of everyday experience. The common thread is a lived faith, presented without pretense. It’s a space for reflection on what it means to be a woman of faith in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, connecting the legacy of the past with the living testimony of the present. Tuning in regularly, you encounter a diverse chorus of perspectives, each contributing to a richer understanding of spiritual life. The discussions here are meant to uplift, validate, and sometimes gently challenge, always centering on the personal journey within a shared belief. This podcast naturally finds its home in moments of quiet contemplation or daily routine, offering substance and connection.
