    Pioneer, Ephriam Hanks, is best known for his exploits as a frontiersman. Ephriam also had the gift of healing through Priesthood blessings. He healed the sick and raised the dead during his amazing life. He & his partner Charlie Decker crossed the plains on horseback more than any other white men, carrying mail between St. Louis & Salt Lake City. He survived starvation, blizzards, Indian attacks, invading armies and an angry wife. He performed field operations & amputations, brought down buffalo with his hunting knife & his rifle. He was widely respected by white and red men through out the West.

    Dear Brother, My husband found your channel and now we listen to you as we travel mostly back and forth to doctor’s appointments. Mark has been ill a very long time so that is how we spend most of our days. But listening to you makes the drive much more enjoyable. We heard today that you and your sweetheart work with addictions. We have a beautiful son whom lives in Salt Lake. He will be 30 this year. He has suffered with terrible addictions now for over 15 years. We have only seen him one time briefly in 2019. There isn’t a day that goes by when we don’t think, pray, long for his return. God bless you and your wife for your work and words of wisdom and inspiration. Sincerely, Mark and DeAnne

      Whether in this life or the next your son will return. Keep the love & faith for him as you wait. Addiction takes the agency away from the person and makes them subject to darker influences. But in his heart he still knows the Lord. Thanks

    Extraordinary telling about an extraordinary man, my great great grandfather. I learned some details I hadn't known. I visited his and Thisbe's graves in the remote Cainesville Cemetery. It was sobering. Thank you so very much.

      I hope I will someday meet Ephriam on the the other side. I have felt the powerful witness of his story so many times. I have reenacted and told many of his encounters to groups across the Wasatch. There is always a powerful spirit as I tell them. What a wonderful heritage you have. Thanks for watching

    Loved this story! Ephraim Hanks was an amazing man. I have some Hanks that are descendants of
    Ephraim Hanks in my ward. I am going to share this with them.

    Thank you for your beautiful renditions of these inspirational stories. Each time you end your broadcast...my eyes are dry as sometimes I'm so fixated on the story that I dont blink! And sometimes tears appear as you share testimony on the love of the Lord. My husband and I always say "we could have listened for 2 more hours!" All the wonderful scenes from the film you mentioned were right there in our minds! Bro Hanks was very gifted.(Like you) in helping others.

    Your show gets awesomer and awesomer. Is 'awesomer' a word? I don't know, but I am always touched by the stories you tell. Thank you so much.

      It is one of my favorites as well. I have told it to Sons & Daughters of the Pioneers and youth groups across the Wasatch over 100 times in the past 20 years. Ephriam was amazing. Thanks for watching

    Thank you. I have not been to the temple yet to see the changes in the endowment session, but I am looking forward to it. And I’m looking forward to the Second Coming of Christ
