Ep 143 S6 Chris Nordfelt ”Eternity’s Greatest Gifts” Gerrit W. Gong

In this episode of Thinking Celestial, Dr. Kirk Burbidge welcomes guest Chris Nordfelt to explore Elder Gerrit W. Gong’s powerful April 2025 General Conference address, “Eternity’s Greatest Gifts.” Together, they reflect on the eternal blessings of identity, covenant belonging, and divine potential. The conversation also dives into the reality of unmet expectations—how faith can flourish even when life doesn’t unfold as hoped. With personal insights and scriptural grounding, this episode invites listeners to see beyond the present and trust in God’s perfect timing.
