To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
As we’ve been reading about the Second Coming in our Sunday School lessons, and hearing about things in the news, I’ve been thinking about what it is we should all be doing to prepare for the Lord’s second coming. I have come to my own conclusion. There may be more to it, but this is […]
In the Book of Mormon, at the Waters of Mormon where Alma the prophet baptizes those that he was teaching in the wilderness, Alma rehearses the covenant we all make with the Lord when we are baptized. Starting in Mosiah 18:8 we learn how we are willing to bear one another’s burdens that they may […]
Over the years, Church history scholars have written papers, articles, and books about the great pioneers who have carved our latter-day legacy. I enjoy randomly coming upon recorded remembrances that have miraculously survived, been researched, and made available to us so we can continue along our own paths of enduring faith. It is sad, but […]
What is our first thought as we approach Easter, this most holy day of holidays? As I contemplate this special time of year, I praise the Lord for my increased knowledge, through study and prayer, which He has given me for the building up of my testimony, and love, for the Savior of the World. […]
How many lessons on tithing and fast offering have we had over the years? Have we stopped listening, or just rehashed the same ideas? For so many years we have been reminded what tithing really is, so here is the real question: Are we just paying our tithing? Or are we repaying the Lord for […]

Most of us forget that, back in Old Testament times, if caught defiling the Sabbath Day, you were put to death. Clearly, they didn’t play around back then (pun intended). In February of 1847, the Prophet Joseph Smith appeared to Brigham Young in a dream. The message given was, “Tell the people to be humble […]
I found this timely article from the Woman’s Exponent. The testimony of one can stand for a testimony of all. “We believe what is written in the Old and New Testament; we fully believe in all the words spoken by the Savior and the testimony of His Apostles. We believe in the fullness of the […]
Many of you may remember Neal A. Maxwell, of the Quorum of the Twelve. This man knew the English language better than most, and his usage of words was truly phenomenal. The images and thoughts, created from his well-chosen words, typically cause us to think at a higher level. Two talks, given by him, made […]
The Book of Mormon was written for our day. The chapters and layout of the Book of Mormon follow the major events of the Latter-days from the father of the Prophet Joseph Smith to the end of the millennium. Like father Lehi, Joseph Smith, Sr. also had a Vision of the Tree of Life and […]
