And We Talk of Christ: Forgiving Through His Light

by Leave a Comment

Receiving the Light of Christ—and Letting Go of What We Cannot Carry

Have you ever wondered what it actually means to forgive someone—especially when the pain they caused hasn’t gone away?

In his tender and Christ-centered address, And We Talk of Christ, Elder Gary E. Stevenson reminds us that Jesus Christ is the Light we receive—and the Light we share. His Atonement is not just about removing our sins, but about transforming our sorrows into peace and our suffering into joy. [Read more…] about And We Talk of Christ: Forgiving Through His Light

Overcoming Fear, Comparison, and Inaction in the Light of Christ

What does it really mean to be ready to meet the Savior—at His Second Coming or at the end of our mortal journey?

In his message Personal Preparation to Meet the Savior, Elder Dale G. Renlund teaches that Christ’s return should not fill us with fear, but with hope. Using three parables from Matthew 25, Elder Renlund outlines a pattern of preparation not based on dramatic change or public deeds, but on quiet, faithful consistency.

The Times of Restitution Are Now

by Leave a Comment

From Passive Observers to Active Participants in God’s Prophetic Work

Have you ever assumed that the Restoration was something that happened once—and now we’re just meant to follow along?

In his deeply doctrinal message, “The Times of Restitution of All Things,” Elder David A. Bednar challenges that assumption. Quoting Acts 3:21, he draws our attention not just to what God has restored, but what He continues to restitute—through us. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was formally organized in 1830, yes—but that event was part of a prophesied restitution of all things foretold by prophets throughout time. And we are not merely witnesses to it—we are meant to be agents in it.

Elder Bednar’s invitation is clear: learn the message, prove it for yourself, and act on it. The Restoration isn’t only about what God did through Joseph Smith—it’s about what He is now doing through each of us. So the question is: Are we content to be acted upon? Or will we choose to act in faith as disciples in the final dispensation? [Read more…] about The Times of Restitution Are Now

Cherishing Life in a Conflicted World

Discipleship, Stewardship, and the Call to Compassion

In a world where the topic of abortion is often weaponized and polarized, what does it look like to truly cherish life as a disciple of Jesus Christ?

In his tender and courageous message, Cherishing Life, Elder Neil L. Andersen speaks not only to those facing unplanned pregnancies—but more urgently, to the rest of us. He teaches that defending the sanctity of life is not a political stance, but a divine responsibility, and that the moral choices surrounding life invite compassionate stewardship, not judgment. 

Elder Andersen reframes agency not as personal entitlement, but as a trust from God, especially when it involves the most vulnerable among us—the unborn and those in distress. He invites us to consider how our own words, hands, and hearts can bring light, hope, and clarity to those navigating some of life’s most fragile decisions.

Right Before Our Eyes

Recognizing Prophetic Fulfillment and Rejecting False Traditions

Have you ever paused to consider what spiritual miracles are unfolding right before our eyes—and whether we might be missing them?

In his General Conference message, Right Before Our Eyes, Elder Ronald A. Rasband invites us to recognize the majesty of this moment in the Restoration. The growth of the Church in temples, missionaries, and faithful disciples isn’t just impressive—it’s the literal fulfillment of prophecy. Yet alongside that divine acceleration, Elder Rasband warns of ongoing opposition, distractions, and “naysayers” who seek to obscure or diminish the Lord’s work.

Welcoming the Spirit, Discerning the Gifts, and Embracing Every Seeker

Have you ever wondered what truly draws people to the restored Church of Jesus Christ—not just doctrinally, but spiritually?

In his Christ-centered address, By This All Will Know That You Are My Disciples, Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf reminds us that the most powerful witness we offer the world is how we treat each other. As he shares a personal story of a nonmember friend discerning the Spirit in a humble sacrament meeting, he bears testimony that spiritual gifts are real, that discernment matters, and that the Lord’s Church must be a place of belonging for all who seek Him.

As a Little Child

Reclaiming Grace, Advocacy, and the Humble Path to Salvation

Have you ever wrestled with the accusation that Latter-day Saints believe we must “earn” our salvation? Or wondered how we reconcile commandments with the doctrine of grace?

In his tender and deeply symbolic message, As a Little Child, President Jeffrey R. Holland invites us to return to a place of purity, trust, and humility—where divine grace flows freely and Christ’s role as our Advocate with the Father becomes central to our hope and healing. Through sacred stories and scriptural insight, President Holland shows that it is not achievement that saves us, but our willingness to come to Christ “as a little child.” [Read more…] about As a Little Child

Finding Safety and Strength Through Christ’s Atonement, Prophetic Order, and Consecrated Service

Have you ever felt caught in a storm—not just in the weather, but in life itself? Trials, grief, injustice, confusion, or even the weight of others’ harmful choices can leave us stranded, unsure where to turn.

In his powerful General Conference address, The Atonement of Jesus Christ Provides the Ultimate Rescue, Elder Quentin L. Cook of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles testifies that Jesus Christ stands ready to rescue each of us through His infinite Atonement. But Elder Cook’s message doesn’t stop there. Drawing on the moving history of the Willie and Martin handcart companies, he reminds us that prophetic leadership and covenant discipleship are vital parts of the Lord’s rescue plan.

Anchoring our Identity and Eternity in Jesus Christ

What does it really mean to receive a gift—not just open it, but internalize it, live it, and let it define your very identity?

In his deeply moving General Conference message, “Receive His Gift,” Elder Patrick Kearon invites us to pause and reflect on the most profound of all gifts: the perfect, holy Son of God, sent by our Heavenly Father for us. Elder Kearon explores what it means to truly receive this divine gift—not passively, but intentionally—and how embracing this gift reframes our identity as children of God and anchors us in the realities of Christ’s atonement and resurrection.
