Returning guest Margaret Agard is a Christian Mystic who turned her life over to God and began to receive, and has lived by the prompts and advice from spirit ever since. She the president of the local Relief Society helping sick and infirm community members. She also the author of two current books, the In His Footsteps series.

------------------------------------------------

I interviewed Margaret and discussed the missionary life she and partner Parker led that is detailed in her second book, Emails Form The Mission Field: Things I Leaned When Serving. In this we discuss her and Parker's decision to sell up their house and become missionaries, living in their 1987 Camino before eventually winding up in Flagstaff, Arizona.

-----------------------------------------------

We discuss the hardships of serving in both a Spanish speaking, and unfriendly English speaking community and their re-assignment to Alaska. Moving a further two times, learning new ways of living, adapting to different cultures and re-evaluating their beliefs about how we interact with our cultures and environment.

----------------------------------------------

Margaret relates the many characters who's lives they touched and who touched theirs, how they found that missionary work isn't what they imagined; but we discuss the valuable insights and lessons they learned about forgiveness, atonement, faith, compromise, trust and persistence. Giving an insight into their lives, Margaret also relates the very difficult personal decisions they had to make and the many arguments and disagreements they had to overcome before finding their own peace.
