Marley’s Faith Crisis Pulled Her Away from the Church….and Why She Decided to Stay

“ The answer to every question or concern that anybody ever has is that it will all be okay because of the Atonement of Jesus Christ. That is what it’s for. That is why they say the first principle of the gospel is faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. It is real life. It’s not just something that we tell Primary kids because it’s cute, and we turned it into a cute little story and song. It is real. Start there. I came to really love my Savior, and He came to really help me.”

Your experience matters—whether it’s still unfolding or long behind you. The Come Back Podcast exists because real people are willing to share real journeys. If you’ve stepped away from faith, wrestled with doubt, or found your way back in a way that doesn’t fit a simple narrative, we’d love to hear from you.
