| Motherhood

Because there is a war going on between good and evil, sometimes I wonder what Relief Society is doing about it. Is it okay to talk about issues that are controversial during class or activities? Not to be controversial, but to become aware of the evil around us and know how to stand for truth. […]

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 […]

| General Conference Odyssey

April 1974 Friday morning session I loved listening to the Women’s session of conference the other night because they spoke with such boldness. Our leaders are speaking to us boldly, more and more, it seems, well … so I thought. I’m learning, as I read earlier conference addresses, that our leaders have always spoken boldly to […]

This week, my General Conference Odyssey report focuses on marriage and family with Elder A. Theodore Tuttle’s talk, Altar, Tent, Well.

| Womanhood

What Is Mormon Woman Ideology?   I raise this question, because face it; it is always the question. The world pulls us in several directions, and our religion pulls us in another direction, and then we have to figure out where we stand. Life is so complicated!   Or so we are made to believe… […]
