Doug Tales 150: The Weak and the Simple

Doug Mendenhall returned again and again in his talks and writings to the great contrast between how the Lord does His work and ways the world works. Twenty years ago, Doug focused on the weak and the simple seeking to follow Jesus Christ (in part of a talk he gave in Boise, Idaho). In his Ezekiel Conference talk from November 7, 2003, Doug briefly discusses those with spiritual gifts and how they are misperceived and persecuted by others. He also includes his own experiences as a young man on his LDS mission in Spain where he had a hard time speaking (because of his stuttering issues), yet he learned line upon line about what is possible relying on faith in our Savior.

Here is a link to a 14 minute audio recording excerpt from Doug’s talk:
