As disciples of the Master Teacher, Jesus Christ, we each have opportunities to share His light wherever we are—in the home, at Church, as we minister to others, and among friends. Consider how the Savior engaged people and invited them to exercise their own moral agency, to

The family is God’s creation, not a human invention. Our loving Father in Heaven sends His children to earth in families because this is an essential part of His plan for our growth, improvement, and happiness. It is strong families that make strong societies—today on

True worship means loving God, feeling gratitude to Him, and yielding our will to Him—the most precious gift we can offer. We could say worshipping Him is to always remember Him, to make time for Him, and to “offer [our] whole souls as an offering unto him” (Omni 1:26).

We all owe a debt of gratitude to those who have gone before us. Let us thank God for them and humbly add our part to what they accomplished. Let us work as hard as they did to build Zion.

Because of the Internet, artificial intelligence, and other technological innovations, we often expect results or information to be available almost instantly. Realistically, however, we ought not to expect in this life to know all the answers. Especially in matters of eternal

I marvel at the gingerbread houses that Kathy creates to raise funds to cover medical expenses for children in need. Christmas and Christmas traditions are about giving to others. May we remember that the greatest gift ever given was the life and Atonement of the Savior, Jesus

In this season of thanksgiving, I have reflected on an editorial that appears each year in the Wall Street Journal around the Thanksgiving holiday in the United States. Titled “The Desolate Wilderness,” this piece not only recounts the Pilgrims’ journey to America in 1620 and
