#145 A New Heart, a New Hope, and a Fresh Start
What if the parts of your life that feel broken, empty, or beyond repair aren't beyond hope after all?
In this week's Come, Follow Me discussion, Heather Rackham welcomes Christian marriage coach Jane Copier to explore Ezekiel 1–3; 33–34; 36–37; and 47. Together, they discuss the Lord's promises of renewal and restoration and how those promises apply to our relationships, our thoughts, and the way we see ourselves.
Drawing from her own marriage experience, Jane shares how coaching tools and faith in Jesus Christ helped her move from feeling disconnected and discouraged to creating a marriage filled with greater love, understanding, and hope.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- A heart of flesh: How Ezekiel 36:26 teaches us about softening our hearts toward ourselves and others.
- Learning from the past: Why remembering our mistakes with compassion rather than condemnation creates opportunities for growth.
- Bringing dry bones to life: What Ezekiel 37 teaches us about finding hope when relationships or circumstances feel beyond repair.
- Faith requires action: How asking God for help, changing our thoughts, and taking intentional steps can lead to lasting transformation.
- The power of living water: How the Savior's influence can bring renewal not only to our relationships but also to future generations.
Whether you're navigating challenges in your marriage, struggling to forgive yourself, or simply feeling stuck, Ezekiel's words offer a powerful reminder that God is in the business of restoration.
Listen in and discover how the Savior can help you bring new life to the areas of your life that need it most.

Three Key Takeaways
- Lasting change begins with a softened heart. Ezekiel 36:26 reminds us that God can replace a heart of stone with a heart of flesh. When we learn to offer ourselves grace and compassion, we become better equipped to extend that same love to others.
- Our past can teach us without defining us. Rather than using previous mistakes as evidence of failure, we can recognize the lessons we've learned and move forward with gratitude. Through the Atonement of Jesus Christ, we have the opportunity to begin again.
- Restoration requires both faith and action. Ezekiel's vision of the dry bones reminds us that God can bring life to seemingly hopeless situations. The vision of dry bones coming to life in Ezekiel 37 reminds us that even hopeless situations can change. As we ask God for guidance, use the tools available to us, and act on personal revelation, we open ourselves to growth and renewal.
