E12 - Experiment Upon The Word with Celeste and Rich Davis

What if you want so much more, but you don’t even know where to start?

Let’s see what Alma had to say about this:

“But behold, if ye will awake and arouse your faculties, even to an experiment upon my words, and exercise a particle of faith, yea, even if ye can no more than desire to believe, let this desire work in you, even until ye believe in a manner that ye can give place for a portion of my words.” -Alma 32:27

In other words, if you’ve got a desire to have an awesome marriage, then you’ve already begun. The next step is to slap on those rubber gloves and protective goggles and start experimenting.

ex·per·i·ment  \ ikˈsperəmənt \

noun: a course of action tentatively adopted without being sure of the eventual outcome.

verb: try out new concepts or ways of doing things.

My favorite part of this definition is, “without being sure of the eventual outcome.” Sometimes you need to step out of your comfort zone and give something a try even if you have no idea what is going to come out of it. (See 1 Nephi 4:6-7)

In this week’s episode of the podcast, we sat down with Celeste and Rich Davis from the Marriage Laboratory to talk about the importance of experimenting.
