To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I’m probably the only one who has this problem. I confess, my mind wanders when I take the Sacrament. I have a pretty good understanding of the gospel of Jesus Christ, and I certainly love, honor, and obey Him as best I can, but I simply must try harder. I’m still reading The Infinite Atonement […]
It’s a new year! That means it’s time to evaluate where we stand and continue challenging ourselves to move forward along the path toward exaltation. Can you believe how Satan is working overtime? He has convinced the world that it’s blasphemous to try to be like God. He has worked his poison into every girl […]
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… […]
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 […]

Susa Young Gates was a formidable woman, and I look forward to the day I can visit and talk with her. She spoke strongly about the responsibility mothers have of teaching their children the gospel. Being the first editor of the Young Woman’s Journal, she was free to speak her mind on pretty […]
I am a big believer in writing personal histories based on stories and experiences. Many lessons and testimonies have been born through a simple story. Let’s be honest, your grandchildren aren’t going to be interested in your detailed daily diary; not when we see journalism reports being cut shorter and shorter on the Internet. News […]
This is a talk given by my friend, Donna Harbuck. She recently shared, in a Sacrament Meeting talk, some stories about the courageous women in her family background. I hope you enjoy these stories as much as I did. I start with my great-great grandmother Sarah Augusta Squires. Her family joined the church in England […]
When the Church was first restored, Joseph spoke to everyone he met about the Book of Mormon and the gospel. With all that he was learning at the time he must have been so excited to share it all. First, individuals listened to him, then they would bring their families, because they were excited to […]
