I love it when I run across a talk that casually mentions the greatness of women. In James E. Faust’s talk, in the October 1981 conference, he says, in the middle of talking about Joseph Smith, “The Church which he restored has had dramatic growth in many parts of the earth. It has produced an […]

Face it, we all like to see that others are imperfect. Yeah, we all do it! Somehow, it makes us all accept our humanness and puts us all on the same playing field.
