To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
I have a friend, Ann, who broke both her legs right before Christmas. Now, to most of us, this would be a disaster in the proportions of the apocalypse. Her Christmas decorations were only half up, her shopping wasn’t done, and she was dismayed at being useless for at least two months. Her example of […]
Ephesians has always been my favorite book in the New Testament. It must be the armor thing. That was always a great lesson in Seminary, FHE, Primary, even Gospel Doctrine. There’s just something about being warriors for Christ. As I have grown in understanding of the gospel, I have learned to love Ephesians even more. […]
The young women have been focusing on the principle of virtue these past few years. We, as their mothers, should be the best example for them to truly understand what virtue means. How we conduct ourselves in all situations is better than any words we may offer them. Years ago, I made a mistake in […]
How do we strengthen families when we are bombarded by bad examples? How do we stand spiritually firm when we want to wade in questionable activities (not bad, just questionable)? How do we set an example for those around us? As women of God, we need to recognize that we have value, first, and foremost. […]
Over the years, Church history scholars have written papers, articles, and books about the great pioneers who have carved our latter-day legacy. I enjoy randomly coming upon recorded remembrances that have miraculously survived, been researched, and made available to us so we can continue along our own paths of enduring faith. It is sad, but […]
“There is one holiday, or more properly holy day, generally observed among Christians, the date of which is still set somewhat after the old Jewish reckoning.

How many lessons on tithing and fast offering have we had over the years? Have we stopped listening, or just rehashed the same ideas? For so many years we have been reminded what tithing really is, so here is the real question: Are we just paying our tithing? Or are we repaying the Lord for […]
If you were to look up the word Suffrage in the dictionary, you would see that the word means “the right to vote.” A Suffragist was one who desired to achieve this privilege, and a Suffragette was a negative label put upon those who took things a step further and wanted equal rights. Mormon women, […]
I found this timely article from the Woman’s Exponent. The testimony of one can stand for a testimony of all. “We believe what is written in the Old and New Testament; we fully believe in all the words spoken by the Savior and the testimony of His Apostles. We believe in the fullness of the […]
I heard someone ask this question: What has the Church done for women? I might rephrase that question, and ask, what have you, as a woman, done for the Church? Years ago, Belle Spafford asked this same question to Pres. George A. Smith; only she was asking what the National Council of Women […]
