Where We Gather: Scripture Insights from Modern Day Disciples
The Where We Gather podcast was created to help you draw closer to the Savior through personal scripture study, meaningful conversations and simple acts of faith.
Audra Elkington is a lifelong member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The stresses of life and sincere questions piled up and she spent 6 years away from the church. Since returning to full participation in her mid-30s, Audra has rebuilt her testimony from the ground up. She stripped away all the questions and cultural concerns and started with learning about and nurturing a relationship with the Savior.
Audra has a deep desire to help others learn more about Jesus Christ and His doctrine. The gospel, as laid out by the Savior, is for everyone who is willing to turn toward Him and follow His teachings. This is the core of the gathering of Israel. The Savior is where we gather.
Audra has been featured in LDS Living's This is the Gospel, Time Out for Women and has been a guest on several podcasts. She has also taught at FSY, Online Institute, and SALT Gathering. Audra is a graduate of Brigham Young University.
