Latter-day Saints may best recognize Russell Osguthorpe\'s name from his time as Sunday School general president. But they may not know he has a background in psychology and was serving as a stake president when he noticed that healthy attachment could be developed in relationships as long as a desire for improvement existed. Since then, he has been devoted to better understanding attachment theory from an academic, clinical, and spiritual perspective. In this week\'s episode, in honor of Valentine\'s Day, we\'ll discuss the importance of developing healthy attachments with God and with those around us.

"We need to come to know God as He knows us. And we need to come to know His children as He knows His children. When we do that, we will be attached and [that attachment is] stronger than a relationship or a connection."
