On Walking Away from the Faith

On Walking Away from the Faith

It saddens me when I see people whom I have admired walk away from their faith because they feel like others in that faith are too judgmental, harsh or dismissive of those who have fallen short or who are perceived by some as “sinners.” I have never considered my faith to be about the people […]

Judge not that ye be not judged - woman taken in adultery

Judge Not – What Does That Mean?

We hear a lot of people accusing others of being “judgmental” these days. If you don’t agree with someone’s choices, way of life, or behavior, it’s considered politically incorrect to say so.

Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People?

Have you ever wondered, “Why do bad things happen to good people?” Or maybe you’ve wondered why you did what you felt you were supposed to do and it ended poorly. Shouldn’t God have protected you and blessed you? Why do you feel like you were cursed instead? Some see God like Santa Claus or […]

finding faith in Christ, faith like the brother of Jared

Faith to See the Finger of the Lord

There is a story I love in the Book of Mormon about a man who had incredible faith in Christ. His name was Mahonri Moriancumer. Quite a mouthful, so he told everyone to just call him “The Brother of Jared.”  He and his brother, Jared, lived during the time of the Tower of Babel. Because […]

second guessing inspiration

Stop Second Guessing Inspiration

Have you ever prayed about something, got a clear direction to take, and when you take it, it leads to pain and disappointment? I don’t know about you, but when that happens to me, my first instinct is to doubt my ability to receive revelation. That’s a scary feeling not to trust that you heard […]
