I just have to say THANK YOU! Thank you to the presenters and thank you to the production team. I know there were lots of kinks along the way, but the event turned out GREAT!!! Thank you for coming to Columbia, SC. Cups were filled, spirits were lifted, burdens and stress was lightened, and I have a stronger desire to follow Christ and do a little better each day. Thank you again! -Kim Garner, Asheville, NC

My group of 9 was very pleased at the new presenters. My step mom was able to be there with us, she has been to the last three one in Atlanta and the other two here in Columbia, SC. She is a non-member but loves the inspirational messages that are given. She thoroughly enjoyed Brother Tops. For myself it was good to be with two of my four daughters and my step mom plus such very dear friends. What a wonderful program you have put together for us as women. There was something there for each of us to gain a greater insight to the love that the Savior has for each of His children. Thanks for all of your efforts and hard work. Charleen Bright, Aiken, SC.

Come unto Him
What happens when you try to re-create the scene of the Savior appearing to the people in the Americas? As Mark spent the last year working on his latest photography project, what he saw and felt changed his life. We believe his message about this experience will help change yours.

Songwriter, entertainer, creator of more than thirty albums and soundtracks, including 25; The Forgotten Carols; and his latest, Mission to Be Happy
Music Artist
Some famous entertainers are known by one name or one song. But Michael McLean is known for literally dozens of songs. And his songs say, sometimes almost perfectly, what all of us have felt. Because of that, chances are he’s written one just for you.

Singer; songwriter; producer; composer; multiple Pearl Award winner; albums include Women at the Well, Face to Face, and All About You
Musical Presentation
There's just something about his voice. We love it! And we also love and appreciate his rock-solid testimony of and passion for the gospel of Jesus Christ. He's a complete family guy but loves being with TOFW and we love having his spirit and heart with us.

Moving a Rubber Tree Plant
We know some of you know that song—you know, the one about the ant? Really? You don’t? Well, then, you are in for a treat. MEE has been learning about resilience: how to get it, how to keep it, and what to do with it. And she’s sharing life lessons from her own personal journey.

Drawing on Good Patterns
Leave your sewing tools at home. This mother of seven is not talking about those kinds of patterns. Are you hoping to raise good kids? While there might be headaches and heartaches along the way, with the Lord’s patterns as our foundation, that hope can turn into reality.

Love Life—and See Good Days
It sounds like a great bumper sticker, doesn’t it? Did you know it’s actually a scripture in the New Testament? Based on this invitation from Peter (nearly 2,000 years ago), Emily Freeman shares a simple, but tried and true, recipe for living a more hopeful life.

Skills from the Scriptures (for Good Times & Bad)
When Brent Top was asked to serve as a mission president, he thought he knew what it meant to rely on the Lord. But it wasn't until a personal crisis of confidence that he learned important lessons about what it really means to "focus on Christ" and allow Him to lift and strengthen us. Brent shares key spiritual skills that, when put into practice daily, will sustain you during good times and keep you from sinking during the bad.
