To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I see LDS women of God in the war chapters of the Book of Mormon. In those war chapters, the Nephites had a great commander, armor, and shields, and they fought with the Lord at their side. As I was recently reading in Alma 43, I actually saw, in my mind’s eye, righteous women […]
Joseph Smith said that the Book of Mormon would bring a man “nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book” (141). That is a pretty powerful statement. In the lesson, one member, taking seriously the challenge to read the Book of Mormon said, “While the bible helped me know […]
Out of all our scriptures, we are under condemnation to “give heed to” the Book of Mormon (pg. 125). If we don’t give heed, D&C 84 warns: “And they shall remain under this condemnation until they repent and remember the new covenant…” (D&C 84:57). We have to address some very serious questions here. Why […]
Ezra Taft Benson is known as the prophet who emphasized the reading of the Book of Mormon. He is described as having the ability to “cut through detail and get to the heart of the issue” (p. 115.) That is exactly what scripture does for us in this confusing world. There are only three […]
I hope every woman who reads and studies this lesson takes the time to personally go through the scriptures that teach us about Jesus Christ. Please read the actual words that talk of Christ, rejoice in Christ, preach of Christ, and prophesy of Christ (2 Ne 25:26) that wait for you in the Book of […]
Now that Ordain Women is no longer the “hot topic” it was, what is left? What questions remain unanswered? Where are women looking for answers? Who has the right answers? What next? For me, the answers will always come from the servants of Heavenly Father, be it ancient or modern-day scripture. So many of us […]
Which one of us has had a stone lobbed at us, for no apparent good reason, and our feathers became ruffled? Or perhaps we have spoken out of turn only to regret it minutes later? How many “if only” moments have we experienced because we forgot to listen to the calming voice of the Holy […]
I am finishing up, teaching in my Book of Mormon class, the chapters of Alma in the Book of Mormon that focus on many of the great battles between the Lamanites and the Nephites. These principles can be applied to strategy and how we may personally make decisions in time of actual war. But maybe […]
In the last chapter of Mosiah, chapter 29, there is a big change in the Nephite form of government. King Mosiah knows his reign is coming to an end and all of his sons have left to preach the gospel to the Lamanites so he has no heir to pass on the kingship. Via inspiration, […]
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 […]
