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

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.

They Fell Back

by Autumn Dickson

This week is all about Christ and His atonement. The Come Follow Me manual recommends studying Luke 22 to reflect on the sacrifice that the Savior made in the Garden of Gethsemane. Instead, I want to read the same experience except I want to share it from the book of John. [Read more…] about Come, Follow Me with FAIR – Easter – Autumn Dickson

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

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

Holiness to the Lord: Gathering to Christ in Everyday Life

Living Sacredly as We Prepare for General Conference

As General Conference approaches, do you feel ready to draw closer to Christ and renew your commitment to live a holier life?

In his uplifting address, Holiness to the Lord in Everyday Life, Elder Gerrit W. Gong of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles invites us to reflect on how holiness can transform our daily routines and attitudes. He reminds us that “holiness to the Lord makes daily living sacred” and that choosing to live in a way that honors God prepares us to gather to Christ, both personally and as a community of Saints.
