Damon never asked for the storm inside his mind. From his earliest memories, anxiety was a constant shadow, and as the years unfolded, so did the manic highs and crushing lows of undiagnosed bipolar disorder. Friendships felt distant. Emotions tangled. And by the time he stepped off a plane in Argentina as a young missionary, the weight of it all nearly broke him. He survived on priesthood blessings, quiet miracles, and a fear of failing—but peace remained just out of reach. Years later, after a healing blessing, heavy medications, and a devastating autoimmune crash, Damon still found himself asking: Where is God in all of this? The answer came slowly—not in flashes of light, but in glimmers from the rearview mirror. Now a father of eight, a grandfather, and the host of a podcast for Saints navigating mental illness, Damon shares the gritty, grace-filled journey of rebuilding faith again and again. This isn’t a story of quick healing. It’s a story of holy survival. And the God who walks with us, even when we can’t feel Him—yet.
