SPECIAL 5th SUNDAY LIVESTREAM! w/Chris the Casual!

<p>He lived the Gospel for 30 days... then decided to get baptized! We're learning everything we can about &quot;Chris the Casual&quot;!In this raw and inspiring Ward Radio live stream, Cardon Ellis and Brittany the Shadow welcome Chris the Casual (Chris Ross) — a former self-described Satanist who had a life-changing encounter with LDS missionaries and is now preparing for baptism in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.Chris shares his unfiltered journey: meeting missionaries while waiting for his fiancé, initially mocking the Church, feeling the Spirit, deleting his critical videos, committing to serious study, and taking the 30-day “live like a Mormon” challenge (including going cold turkey on his beloved Reese’s iced coffee!). He opens up about his honest doctrinal questions around Heavenly Mother and the nature of God, his deep love for the temple, and how the Church’s teachings align more with the Bible than he expected. He also talks about the profound positive changes in his life and his current path toward baptism after marriage.This is a must-watch for investigators, new members, and anyone who loves powerful stories of faith.</p><p>Timestamps / Chapter Markers:</p><p>00:00 – Welcome &amp; Introducing Chris the Casual</p><p>02:25 – Chris Tells His Origin Story (Tennessee, Fiancé &amp; Satanist Past)</p><p>04:00 – What “Satanist” Actually Meant to Him06:15 – Feeling the Spirit &amp; Returning to Church</p><p>07:33 – The 30-Day “Live Like a Mormon” Challenge</p><p>09:54 – Cardon Shares His Mission Invitation Story</p><p>11:35 – How the Journey Has Been Received (Antis &amp; Cookies)</p><p>15:22 – Brittany Asks: What Was the Most Challenging Part?</p><p>15:36 – Giving Up Coffee Cold Turkey (Reese’s Iced Coffee!)</p><p>16:08 – Chris’s Religious Background Growing Up</p><p>20:16 – Anti-Mormon Rabbit Holes &amp; “Magic Underwear” Questions</p><p>22:13 – Word of Wisdom Struggle &amp; Setting a Baptismal Date</p><p>23:32 – Biggest Doctrinal Hangups: Heavenly Mother &amp; God of Flesh and Bone</p><p>25:54 – Still Iffy but Prioritizing Following Christ</p><p>36:59 – What He Loves Most: Temples &amp; Their Biblical Connection</p><p>40:55 – Family &amp; Fiancé’s Reactions to His Changes</p><p>48:29 – Current Status: Wants Baptism After Marriage (Hoping for July)</p><p>53:58 – Super Chats Begin (Location, Name Origin, etc.)</p><p>58:58 – His Experience in the Ward Radio Discord</p><p>01:03:47 – What Finally Convinced Him to Want to Join</p><p>01:07:51 – One Thing He Wishes the Church Would Change (Energy Drinks)</p><p>01:15:33 – Final Thoughts: Follow the SpiritCheck out Chris the Casual on YouTube for more of his journey!</p><p>wardradio.com#WardRadio #LDS #Mormon #ConversionStory #Investigator #BookofMormon #Temple #LatterDaySaint</p>
