Dec 31, 2025Whenever you are about to do something spiritually significant or have just had a spiritual experience, you’ve got to expect opposition. Moses 1 is such a good chapter to teach us how to handle ourselves and what to remember when that happens. 🙏🏻

Dec 16, 2025Spoiler Alert…there are NO perfect families out there. 😀. All families struggle with something.

They still apply to us and there are wonderful promises to those who follow them.

Dec 12, 2025There is a great pattern for us to follow as we watch men like Wilford Woodruff and Spencer W. Kimball struggle through getting answers to their prayers. The things they did are the same things we can do when searching for our own “declarations” from God.

Nov 17, 2025As Joseph’s days were coming to an end, he felt the need to throw in some last minute instructions to the Saints - including something that had been written over 12 years earlier as “an appendix” to what we now know as the Doctrine and Covenants.

Nov 13, 2025Plural Marriage is so tough to understand - so many unknowns which makes it a pretty messy topic. But, by putting ourselves in those faithful Saints’ shoes for a minute (or even Abraham’s Old Testament shoes) it may enable us to offer them a lot of grace and patience as they acted in faith.

Nov 10, 2025D&C 129 may seem like a pretty obscure section - and it kind of is, but you have to take into account that Joseph spoke with a lot of credibility on this subject. And there is definitely some application for us today. 😇👼

Oct 30, 2025One of the coolest scripture study skills is to place your name in the scriptures in place of another individual and see how it sounds. Well, there are 60 people mentioned by name in D&C 124 as Nauvoo is being organized. Did all of them stay faithful to their promised blessings?

Oct 27, 2025What worries and concerns do you think the Saints had in 1839-1840? How do we “cheerfully” get them out of Missouri and into a place of “rest”? 😌

Oct 20, 2025The Liberty Jail sections (D&C 121-123) are sacred territory in my opinion. So much goodness and instruction. It’s also important to understand what got these men here in the extremely tough year of 1838 in an obscure Missouri town.

Oct 08, 2025If soft hearts and “unstiff” necks can bring conversion (D&C 112:13), then hard hearts and stiff necks can bring apostasy. Sadly, some of these early members of the church fell right into that pattern. A good lesson for us today!

Sep 18, 2025In the midst of all of the Zion’s Camp craziness, the church in Kirtland still needs to grow and stay organized. Hence, D&C 102. When difficulties arise, it’s good to have that High Council to help “settle” those matters - all in an effort to help a member grow closer to Christ. 😇

Sep 15, 2025In preparation for this week of CFM study, I want to jump back to one of the Savior’s little known parables in D&C 101 that I call “The parable of the empty field” or simply “The Parable of Why?”.

Sep 12, 2025D&C 101 is a wonderful section with a lot going on (hence the almost 15 minute episode today), but trials and adversity are such universal topics, that when they happen - one can’t help to ask the question “WHY?”

Sep 08, 2025This week we start to see some of the most intense persecution of the Saints. Why did the Missourians hate the “Mormons” so much? With a little bit of context, we find that it was all about R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

Sep 02, 2025God loves us SO much! More than we can comprehend. In D&C 95, we see the love of God in a major way…and sadly, most of us don’t always see this as a manifestation of his love. ❤️

Aug 14, 2025I really believe that one of the big responsibilities of a member of the church, regardless of how comfortable you are in doing it….is to “teach one another the doctrine of the kingdom”. As you diligently do this, his grace will attend us. 😇
