Murray interviews John and Nicole Stinchcombe about life growing up in post-war France and England and how they came to be members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We count the Stinchombes among the early pioneers of the Church here in Australia. They are known and loved by many here in the Melbourne region.

Betty Frew grew up in a tenement building in Scotland in the 1950's and '60's before following some extended family members and migrating with her husband to Australia. She met her late husband, Ray, when he was 16 and she only 14, but managed to hide her relationship with him for a couple of years, as there was a catch. Not only was she too young to have a boyfriend, but Ray was a Mormon! Betty was raised in a traditional Presbyterian home and for her parents, it was quite a shock to have their daughter wanting to go to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This is a story of patience and faith, determination and romance! We hope you enjoy this interview.

40 years ago (1984) the Harvey family became members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Here, Robert Harvey tells his story about growing up in small towns in Australia, and eventually meeting the missionaries and being taught the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ, and how his family was blessed and expanded because they became members of the Church.

Today's interview is with my good friend, Gavin Williamson. One beautiful women brought him in to the Church, and another beautiful women brought him back after he drifted away for a few years. I think you'll enjoy hearing his story. I did!

Michelle's life journey is an incredible story of growing up in the Philippines and moving as a child to New Zealand and later as a young married mother to Australia. Her "fun" teenage years brought her in contact with other teenagers who happened to be from Latter-day Saint families. Michelle's naturally charming and bubbly personality shine through in this interview. I'm sure you will love her, just as all her friends and family do!

Russ was a fascinating interviewee, and very patient with the technical difficulties I encountered! He is a wonderful story teller and has many stories to tell. I hope this episode provides an insight into life in Salt Lake City, where Russ grew up as a next door neighbour to Gordon B. Hinckley, former president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. For older couples, I also hope you might be inspired to want to serve as a senior missionaries.

Brother Osguthorpe, currently serves as a Sealer in the Provo Temple. He and his wife Lolly recently served as senior missionaries at BYU-H, they served as President and Matron of the Bismarck North Dakota Temple, he is a former General Sunday School President, and Area Seventy.

Prior to full-time Church service Russ was Professor of Instructional Psychology at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. He is the author of a number of books. He is also the host of the Filled With His Love podcast.

Murray Ceff interviews 101 year old Bob Lyon about life as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It's not every day you get to listen to a 101 year old talk about his life. He lived through the Japanese bombing of Darwin in World War II, experienced miracles while serving in The Church as a Branch President, and continues to bless the lives of other just by being alive.

Christian McOmber @MissionaryUniverse grew up in a Latter-day Saint family in Seattle, served mission for the Church in Brazil, and is a young married father of one, so far :) His first book, a memoir of his mission in Brazil, is now available on Amazon. Search for "With your Shield or Upon It". It is a fantastic read for prospective missionaries, currently serving missionaries, returned missionaries, and anyone else who loves missionary work! Would be a beautiful Christmas present.
