To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I have been reading The Infinite Atonement by Tad Callister and have had a wonderful time looking up each scripture he uses to solidify the points he is making about Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice. I often get carried away and decide to read the entire chapter to grasp the whole concept, and that […]
Is your testimony a private part of you; guarded from just anyone, or deep inside your soul, but to shy to share it? It seems to be a rare occurrence for sisters, in general, to share their feelings for a testimony that is like fire in their bones. I have thought about this a lot […]
My husband and I watch over an independent branch at a care facility. We have grown to love these people (mostly ladies) and enjoy the spirit we share together. There is one particular sister who has been deaf all her life. We all struggle to understand her, but she is patient with us. She typically […]
What would life be like without the Atonement? Take just a minute and think about life as we know it. What parts of our life are directly related to Jesus Christ? What blessings do we enjoy that directly come from Jesus Christ’s atoning sacrifice? What consequences of life will we avoid by recognizing, and following, […]
I’ve heard it repeated many times that the Atonement is incomprehensible. That is little excuse for us to not study and learn what we can comprehend. So, this is my small attempt at personal discovery. Many movies have been made where Jesus’ suffering and sacrifice is depicted in a very brutal and violent way. The […]
I don’t have much to say about this month’s visiting teaching message. But I do have some questions.

When we go […]
Another general conference is over, so now what are we going to do? Pres. Monson’s final words to us were: Study the messages carefully. Be good citizens and good neighbors. Be tolerant, kind, and loving. Jesus has shown us how to act on a daily basis. Visit others. Rejoice! Let Jesus guide us. May our […]
There are many paintings, sculptures, and depictions of Christ. Some are just beautiful, others not so much. I thought, as a celebration of Easter, I would share some of my favorites of our Savior, Jesus Christ. I really love how she depicts him here. A mixture of strength and tenderness. His […]
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 […]
Helen Mar Kimball Whitney wrote extensively about the early doings of the Church, in Nauvoo and Salt Lake City, during her youth. Because of her record, we have a clear picture of what it was like to live in that time period. She wrote of the Martyrdom, faithful women, and many miracles that took place, […]
