Ep 151 S6 Conference Review with the Sacketts Part 1

In this, part one of a two part episode of Thinking Celestial, Dr. Kirk Burbidge is joined by his wife Shauni and friends Amy and Alan Sackett for a heartfelt discussion on the October 2025 General Conference. Together, they reflect on the first two sessions, highlighting messages of spiritual anchoring, family-centered faith, and personal discipleship. The group explores Elder Uchtdorf’s call to wholehearted service, Sister Browning’s testimony of sacred music, and Elder Rasband’s reaffirmation of the divine origin of the Family Proclamation. They also share impressions of President Dallin H. Oaks’ emotional leadership following President Nelson’s passing, and how the talks inspired deeper commitment to Christ in a changing world.
