As Seemeth Him Good

by Autumn Dickson

Sidney Rigdon has become an increasingly significant character in the formation of the young church, and this week we get to read a revelation that was directed towards him. Sidney was originally trained as a tanner, but he left that profession to preach because he dearly loved the word of God. He worked with the Baptists for some time before splitting with them over disagreements. He moved to Ohio with his family and was elected preacher over a congregation there. Sidney Rigdon dearly wanted a restoration of Christ’s church; he recognized that the church he was looking for wasn’t on the earth at the time, but he faithfully tried to pattern his congregation after what he learned about in the New Testament.

Carrying the Message of Easter into Every Sabbath

What does it mean to truly worship—not just attend, sing, or pray, but offer your whole soul?

In his stirring General Conference address, “Worship”, Elder D. Todd Christofferson invites us to reexamine how we honor God. He outlines four sacred dimensions of worship: our actions, attitudes, loyalties, and our emulation of the Father and the Son. [Read more…] about Worship That Transforms: Becoming One Through Christ

An Act of Faith

by Autumn Dickson

This week, we run into a big announcement for the Saints.

Doctrine and Covenants 37:3-4

3 And again, a commandment I give unto the church, that it is expedient in me that they should assemble together at the Ohio, against the time that my servant Oliver Cowdery shall return unto them.

4 Behold, here is wisdom, and let every man choose for himself until I come. Even so. Amen.

The Lord asks His Saints, many of whom are gathered in New York, to pack up and move to Ohio. [Read more…] about Come, Follow Me with FAIR – Doctrine and Covenants 37–40 – Autumn Dickson

Receive His Gift: Accepting the Atonement and the Reality of the Risen Christ

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.

Confidence in the Covenant: A Gospel of Love for the Least Likely

by

Letting General Conference Move Us From Receiving to Reaching

Have you ever wondered why some people seem so confident in God’s love—while you’re just hoping you haven’t let Him down too much?

In a world where many wrestle with feelings of unworthiness and question their standing before God, Elder Karl D. Hirst offers a deeply personal and healing reminder in God’s Favourite: you are already completely loved. You don’t have to earn it. You can’t break it. And no matter how broken you feel, God’s love still reaches you. [Read more…] about Confidence in the Covenant: A Gospel of Love for the Least Likely

Left to Inquire

by Autumn Dickson

David Whitmer, one of the three witnesses of The Book of Mormon, is chastened in one of the sections that we read for this week. He had listened to Hiram Page who had been receiving false revelations, and the Lord spoke with him regarding this. His response can be helpful because we have all been in David’s shoes to one extent or another. [Read more…] about Come, Follow Me with FAIR – Doctrine and Covenants 30-36 – Autumn Dickson

I Am In Your Midst

by Autumn Dickson

There is a lot of doctrine covered in Doctrine and Covenants 29. I absolutely love it. It ranges from the Millennium to agency and all over the board. There are so many things that caught my attention that are meaningful to me but alas, let’s talk about just one of the principles. Before I jump into the verse, I want to give some background to explain why it caught my attention. [Read more…] about Come, Follow Me with FAIR – Doctrine and Covenants 29 – Autumn Dickson
