I testify that Jesus is the Christ. That He lives. That He loves each of us and wants the very best for us in the world and throughout eternity. I have listened to the voice of the Spirit bear record to me of this truth and nothing the world has can diminish this knowledge

I used to be a member of Sam’s Club. I was a member for 20 years. I went there every week. I really liked the marketing messages. I enjoyed the fruits that they had. Then one day I looked around. I realized that Sam’s Club wasn’t for me. I converted to Costco. Much better

This.
@prockwellbg The dissonance here is both entertaining and a sad. A lot of people seem to operate on the assumption that being called as a church leader means someone becomes infallible perfect in doctrine, character, and judgment 120% of the time. (Pope syndrome) But the reality is

The most radical thing you can do in a "me-first" culture is trust an 90-year-old modern prophet who says "God-first."

Family scripture study tonight was 1 Nephi 15. I never realized that people who refuse to read the Book of Mormon (yet are quick to say it’s false) are really like Lamen and Lemuel here.

Dad Moves “Narrate Your Inner World Out Loud” Kids don’t learn emotional intelligence by accident. Say things like “I’m frustrated, so I’m taking a breath before I respond.” It teaches them how to handle life by watching how you handle yours.

As Mary Magdalene and her companions mournfully approached the Garden Tomb, two angels appeared to them and shared the clarion call of all Christianity: "Why seek ye the living among the dead?" "He is not here, but is risen" (Luke 24:5-6). This Easter season we also joyfully

And now, after the many testimonies which have been given of him, this is the testimony, last of all, which we give of him: That he lives! For we saw him, even on the right hand of God; and we heard the voice bearing record that he is the Only Begotten of the Father—That by him,
