I think we all have lessons or talks that stick with us more than others. For me, one of these lessons happened in December 2011.

My New General Conference Commitment
This last weekend was stake conference for me. One of the members of the stake presidency talked about how he’s listened to the general conference talks multiple times already. That, of course, made me feel a bit guilty. I’m usually good about reading the general conference talks once the “Liahona” comes out.

It hit me that it’s better to prepare for the storm that…… Continue reading Better to Prepare for the Storm That Never Comes

General Conference Weekend: A Time for Revelation
This weekend is General Conference. That means two days of listening to general authorities and members of the general presidencies talk. I learned earlier today that President Russell M.
