To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I was just reading about Gidgiddoni and Lachoneus, in the Book of Mormon (3 Nephi 3). Giddianhi, the leader of the Gadianton Robbers, has just written a very nasty letter to Lachoneus saying they are going to wipe out all the Nephites. As our prophets have told us, we are living parallel lives to the […]
After hearing Sis. Joy D. Jones’ and Sis. Jean B. Bingham’s talks, I heard, unmistakably, specific challenges for all of us women. We were challenged to take a stand in the cause for Christ and to unify with our brethren. What does that mean? What must we do to meet the challenge? First of all, […]
It’s finally out!! My book, A Relief Society That Brings Women to Christ, is now available at Amazon. Order my new book here. There are a lot of books being published answering questions about women and the Priesthood. I admit, originally that was my question too. But, over the years, as I’ve studied what the […]
Is it really true? Is Relief Society the last place on earth a girl can learn how to be a mother? Perhaps, there are other organizations out there, but it’s likely our church is the last and only place motherhood is praised. In fact, our church offers so many tools to help mothers be distinct […]
As I’ve been reading through the talks from our recent General Conference, I felt inspired to read through the Relief Society Declaration and compare it with the Young Women Theme. Even though they are different organizations, the RS and YW are strikingly similar in purpose and destiny. The Relief Society Declaration was first given to […]
Our temple attendance is how we prepare to recognize, understand, and stand in front of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Recently, I’ve sat in some talks that help us get the most out of our temple experiences. This list is worth pondering and thinking about, and I invite you to do so. Pay Attention There […]
Have you ever wondered where the title, “Mother in Israel” comes from? I would like to share my interesting journey of discovery as I have come to understand our vital role in the kingdom of God. We can find Mother in Israel used twice in the scriptures. Once, when Deborah the prophetess, calls herself a […]
The argument about women and the priesthood has been going on for a long time. But the glorifying answers have been around for just as long a time, even longer. The truth has always been given to us. An article written by Leah Widtsoe in 1933 clarifies brilliantly. Leah Dunford Widtsoe was the wife of […]
Occasionally, I’ll dig up an old Relief Society Magazine. While reading an article about a speech given by Belle Spafford (9th Relief Society General President), this thought ran through my head: Why talk of failure and excuses when we can talk of victory? I quote from her talk: “When I was a little girl, we […]
The new Youth and Children program has been announced. At least, they’re giving us a little more information. We still have much to look forward to. But don’t regard this just for youth and children. It’s good for adults too. The way I understand, the program is more for individual goal setting in specific areas. […]
