Mothers Through Little Eyes

Mothers Through Little Eyes

In this special Mother’s Day episode, children from our congregation share funny, surprising, and heartfelt thoughts about their moms—including a few discoveries about how moms apparently survive on hugs, prayers, and reminding people to clean things up. Through simple conversations, they describe love, kindness, comfort, faith, and the little things that make mothers so special. Their honest words remind us of the Christlike influence mothers have in our homes and lives.

John White

Our guide in this episode is John White, a former bishop of our ward and now serving as a Sunday School instructor. We chat about the Old Testament—this year’s curriculum, a focus that John admits he’s yet to teach. We discuss about how he leads discussions on Sunday translates to how we lead in the home. Stay tuned to find out why the best answer in class is often just awkward silence.

Katie and Luke Peterson

Today’s episode is a little different—and you won’t want to miss it. Bishop Luke Peterson sits down with his wife, Katie, for a conversation that includes competitive jump-roping, a childhood prediction that has kind of come true, and a few stories that may permanently change how you see the Peterson family. It’s a warm and fun conversation. So stick around.

Kendra Cope

Our guide in this episode is Kendra Cope. You may know her as the Raleigh Stake Relief Society President. But what you may not know is that Kendra is also a pediatric speech pathologist with Wake County Public Schools. She works at Reading Creek Elementary with students from kindergarten through fifth grade, helping them communicate more effectively. In this episode, we talk about her career and her two and a half years serving in her stake calling. She'll also share a funny story about a $5 word that proves she is a true proprietor of language. Let's get to know Kendra.

Aaron Stander

What happens when an ordinary day turns into a life-altering moment? In this episode, we sit down with Aaron Stander—a member of our congregation with an electrifying story and a shocking lesson about resilience, recovery, and the power of perspective. He faced what most of us can’t even imagine… and lived to tell it with humor, humility, and hard-earned wisdom, and yes, throws around a few puns. Trust me—you won’t want to miss a second of this powerful story.
