Letting Go
Tonight while reading The Peacegiver, I had a really powerful image come to mind. I’m not talented enough to write or paint this, so I’ve leaned on the power of AI to help me capture what’s been in my heart about the importance of forgiving others. ———————- In shadows cast by sins of old, a […]
Is Judas a Son of Perdition?
Note: This article is currently being reviewed and edited. Feel free to leave feedback! Due to an interesting back-and-forth discussion in Sunday school today, I decided to consolidate some useful information to help our ward get on the same page about a topic that seems to come up every spring. What does “Son of Perdition” […]
Sealing Power Brings Hope
NOTE: I have not yet finished verifying all of the quotes that are used in this post. Parents of wayward children agonize over the choices and trials of their prodigal sons and daughters, and the fear of losing them deeply shakes their hearts. It’s unfortunate that one of the most profound teachings in the Church, […]
A Church Program to Restore the Constitution
After discussing the Political Kingdom of God, millennial government with Christ as King, and the future restoration of the Constitution, I’m often asked, “If this is so important, why don’t the brethren talk about this more?” Or, “If this were really true, why hasn’t the church created a program to restore the Constitution?” This brief […]
The Modesty Conversation I Wish We Would Have
Modesty Today Growing up, almost everything I was taught about modesty revolved around the idea that girls need to cover up their bodies to make it easier for guys to have clean thoughts.

Summary: I’ve spoken at one […]
Navigating Latter-day Prophesy
I’ve been asked to compile a guide for those wanting to make sense of latter-day prophecy. I have a unique perspective on this subject. So to introduce this guide, I’ll share part of my childhood story.
Adam as a Son of God
It is commonly believed that Adam was literally made from mud, or the dust of the ground. This interpretation is so common that the name Adam literally means “ground” or “made from the earth/dust/clay” in some languages. However, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints seems to take a different position on the issue. […]
When Christ is King
There is a lot of misunderstanding regarding millennial government and the role Jesus Christ says He will play in world government after his 2nd Coming. I believe much of that confusion comes from our regular reference to Jesus Christ as King, especially during the millennium, as well as several verses of scripture. For example: For […]
“No Man” Knoweth the Day Nor the Hour?
This is a quick response to the idea that the timing of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ is not known by anyone on earth. Most people believe that nobody knows, nor could know, when Christ will return. That belief stems from the following verses in Matthew 24: 3 And as he sat upon the mount […]
