To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
From Hawaii: “We have been talking a lot in church about learning to live by faith and not fear. I am reminded of a tender mercy given to me from the Lord to assist me in learning this principle in my everyday life: I have been in the airline industry for almost nine years now. When […]
April 2010, at the BYU Women’s Conference, Julie B. Beck challenged us to read the Book of Mormon with a special intent. “I have a little exercise for those of you who want something specific to do in your scripture study. Get a new little copy of the Book of Mormon. In the front of […]
There are so many different ways to approach a lesson, both as teacher and as student, and not all ways bring the Spirit. It’s easy to just sit in a lesson and listen, but you may go home (after spending three hours at Church!), and not have anything to show for it. Likewise, a teacher […]
Here is my interruption of the drawing that I did last week. This is a temple experience for the prophet Isaiah. The number three is very prominent. Symbolically the number three represents covenant. In the temple we as well as Isaiah make many covenants with the Lord. The seraphims are temple workers that help administer […]
There are many ways to interpret Isaiah, as seen by the many Isaiah-made-easy type books that are out there. We still struggle through, or stay clear, of that precious book.

He spotlighted many examples of Jesus […]
The doctrine of the priesthood is the key to working effectively in the Church. What is the doctrine of the priesthood? Let’s look at D&C 121:45. This section of the Doctrine and Covenants was received by the Prophet Joseph Smith near the end of a four-month stay in the horrible Liberty Jail. He was told […]
Did you know you are going to have to sing a song when you get to the pearly gates, in order to get in? Don’t worry, though. The words are in the scriptures, in your testimony, in your life lived, and in your love of the Savior. You don’t even need to worry about whether […]
Maybe some of you are better at your scripture reading than I am. All I can say is I am grateful for my Gospel Doctrine calling, because I take an entire week to study scripture, cruise the Internet, and gather other reading materials that will enlighten me enough to enrich other’s lives. If I’m not […]
In Sunday School class I presented several questions as a review of the Doctrine of Covenants. One of the questions provoked quite a discussion. “What would you do if a mob pointed a gun at your child’s head and said they would shoot unless you denied your faith?” This is a question that has been […]
