Discovering New Spiritual Understanding

November 30, 2022 sbirk  WOOL Quote  Covenants, Prophet, Temple Work  Leave a comment

In a remarkable way, the Lord’s prophet is drawing us closer to our Savior, including through sacred temple ordinances and covenants coming closer to us in more places. We have a profound opportunity and gift to discover new spiritual understanding, love, repentance, and forgiveness with each other and our families, in time and eternity. – […]

Lay Down the Burden of Judging Others

November 29, 2022 sbirk  WOOL Quote  Forgiveness, Love  Leave a comment

Many talks have been given by our Church leaders on charity, unity, love, kindness, compassion, forgiveness, and mercy. I believe the Savior is inviting us to live a higher, holier way5—His way of love where all can feel they truly belong and are needed. We are commanded to love others,6 not to judge them.7 Let’s lay down that heavy burden; it isn’t […]

Empathy and Attentiveness

November 28, 2022November 29, 2022 sbirk  WOOL Quote  Cross, Embrace  Leave a comment

As we take up our crosses and follow Him, it would be tragic indeed if the weight of our challenges did not make us more empathetic for and more attentive to the burdens being carried by others. It is one of the most powerful paradoxes of the Crucifixion that the arms of the Savior were […]

The First Presidency’s Christmas Message

November 27, 2022 sbirk  WOOL Quote  Christmas  Leave a comment

This Christmas season, we invite you to find quiet moments to reflect on our Savior’s birth, life and atoning sacrifice. Come unto Him. Learn of Him. Look to Him for lasting peace and divine rest. In a world that often feels overwhelming and contentious, He offers peace that “passeth all understanding” (Philippians 4:7). He has […]

An Ongoing Process

November 26, 2022November 27, 2022 sbirk  WOOL Quote  Continuous, Disciple  Leave a comment

As we know very well, having faith in Jesus Christ and being a true disciple is more than a one-time decision—more than a one-time event. It is a sacred, ongoing process that grows and expands through the seasons of our lives, continuing until we kneel at His feet. – Neil L. Andersen, “Drawing Closer to […]

Proceed to Proclaim

November 25, 2022 sbirk  WOOL Quote  Knowledge, Truth  Leave a comment

The knowledge of the truth does not make us better than other people, but it teaches us what we must do to return to God’s presence. As you proceed firmly in Christ and with courage not only to proclaim the truth but to live the truth, you will find comfort and peace during the turbulence […]

Gatherings of the Imperfect

November 24, 2022 sbirk  WOOL Quote  Gathering, Imperfections, Willingness  Leave a comment

The Church is a gathering place for imperfect individuals who love God and who are willing to follow the Lord Jesus Christ. That willingness is rooted in the reality that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God. This divine truth can be known only by the power of the Holy Ghost. Therefore, […]

The Troubling Part

November 23, 2022 sbirk  WOOL Quote  Faith, Family, Future  Leave a comment

When your faith, your family, or your future are challenged—when you wonder why life is so hard when you are doing your best to live the gospel—remember that the Lord told us to expect troubles. Troubles are part of the plan and do not mean you’ve been abandoned; they are part of what it means […]

Nurturing Our Neighbors

November 22, 2022November 23, 2022 sbirk  WOOL Quote  Neighbors, Stewardship  Leave a comment

My brothers and sisters, should we not be the gardeners for our fellow men and women? Are we not our brother’s keeper? Jesus commanded us to love our neighbor as ourselves.11 From His mouth, the word neighbor does not merely mean geographic proximity; it implies a proximity of the heart. It encompasses all the inhabitants of this planet—whether […]

Being One

November 21, 2022November 22, 2022 sbirk  WOOL Quote  Belonging, Diversity  Leave a comment

The Lord commands us, “Be one; and if ye are not one ye are not mine.”3 We should be diligent in rooting prejudice and discrimination out of the Church, out of our homes, and, most of all, out of our hearts. As our Church population grows ever more diverse, our welcome must grow ever more spontaneous […]
