About this listen

 What would make someone leave a life of comfort and stability to follow Jesus Christ full-time?
In this heartfelt testimony, Elder Palmer shares how he went from long oil field shifts and cowboy life in Utah to serving as a full-time missionary in Canada. Through prayer, scripture study, and personal revelation, he found a deeper purpose and joy in dedicating his life to Christ.

We talk about:
-Letting go of worldly expectations to follow a spiritual calling
-How to know God’s will for your life
-What it’s really like being a missionary today—and why it still matters
-The power of daily spiritual habits like scripture and prayer
-Christ’s unfailing love and how He meets us where we are

📖 Whether you’re wrestling with your next step in life or just curious what it really means to follow Christ, this story will move and inspire you.
