Send us a text How can we forgive others who have hurt us, or hurt someone we love? Can we really follow Jesus' example of forgiveness when He forgave those who tortured and crucified Him while He still hung on the cruel cross? Is it possible for us to demonstrate that kind of true forgiveness in this mortal life?.. This is exactly what Charlie Kirk's widow, Erika Kirk, did when she spoke at her husband's funeral. She forgave her husband's killer, "Because that Is what Christ did, and w...

Send us a text In this short episode, Kenny shares some thoughts from our stake conference. Our visiting area Seventy, Elder James N. Robinson, shared some profound insights with us during the Sunday morning session. Many walked away from that meeting with a whole new understanding of what it means when the scriptures tell us that God requires "a broken heart..." as an offering from us to Him. I hope Elder Robinson's insight is as meaningful for you as it was for me! -Kenn...

Send us a text From Come Follow Me: "The revelation in section 45 was received, according to the section heading, “to the joy of the Saints.” And there’s a lot to be joyful about in this revelation. In it the Savior gives His tender promise to plead for us before the Father (see verses 3–5). He tells of His everlasting covenant spreading throughout the world, like “a messenger … to prepare the way before [Him]” (verse 9). And He prophesies of His glorious Second Co...
Send us a text From Come Follow Me: "For most people, being baptized is a reverent, peaceful experience. The baptism of Emma Smith and others, however, was disrupted by a mob who mocked them, threatened them, and forced them to flee. Later, just as Joseph was about to confirm the new members, he was arrested for upsetting the community with his preaching. In all this opposition, how could Emma find reassurance that she was doing the right thing? The same place we c...
Send us a text From Come Follow Me: "The Church grew rapidly in 1830 and 1831, particularly with a rush of new members in Kirtland, Ohio. This growth was exciting and encouraging to the Saints, but it also presented some challenges. How do you unify a quickly expanding group of believers? Specifically, what do you do when they bring doctrine and practices from their previous faiths? For example, when Joseph Smith arrived in Kirtland in early February 1831, he found new mem...
Send us a text From Come Follow Me: "To the early Saints, the Church was more than a place to hear some preaching on Sunday. The revelations used words like cause, kingdom, Zion, and, quite often, work. That may have been part of what attracted people to the restored Church. As much as they loved the doctrine, many also wanted something holy they could dedicate their lives to. Even so, obeying the Lord’s 1830 command to gather in Ohio was not easy. For many, it mea...

Send us a text From Come Follow Me: "April 3, 1836, was Easter Sunday. After helping administer the sacrament to Saints in the newly dedicated Kirtland Temple, Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery found a quiet place behind a veil and bowed in silent prayer. Then, on this sacred day when Christians everywhere were commemorating the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, the risen Savior Himself appeared in His temple, declaring, “I am he who liveth, I am he who was slain” (Doctr...
