Putting faith into action
In the search for truth, what are you willing to DO to find it? Are you willing to admit you’ve been wrong? Are you willing to sacrifice bad habits and sins? How will you put faith in Jesus Christ into action?
Book of Mormon challenge
We’ve finished the Book of Mormon. Now what? How can you make this book a part of your daily life so you can qualify for the blessings God has promised you?
Moroni 10b – The Truth of All things
In these few verses, Moroni tells us how to receive a witness of the Book of Mormon for ourselves. He also tells us how to learn the truth of ALL things.
Ether 7 – Political Intrigue & Prophets
The Jaredites deal with a ton of political intrigue for a couple generations. But prophets are sent to them, just as they are sent to us in our day to help guide, warn, and comfort us. Will we listen to our modern day prophet?
Alma 45 – Quick turn-about
In this chapter, we see how quickly the Nephites turn from righteous gratitude to willful turning away from God and His prophets. What can we do to keep from having this quick turn-about in our own lives?

Personal Revelation

The principle of receiving guidance directly from a heavenly source brings me so much peace. Even when trials abound, I still have hope that God is at the helm and will not let me sink. When…
Joseph Smith-Prophet of the Restoration
I love the prophet, Joseph Smith. He was and is a great man who God used to restore the truth to the earth after centuries of darkness and confusion. There were other great men named Joseph in ancient history. In 2 Nephi 3 (in the Book of Mormon), Lehi talks to his son named…
