Ask, Seek, Knock

Today’s technology also allows us to use wireless telephones to exchange information rapidly. Recently Wendy and I were on assignment on another continent when we learned that a new baby had arrived in our family. We received the good news minutes after that birth had occurred half a world away.

In the World But Not of the World

"The world around you is not equipped to provide the help you need to make it through this often-treacherous journey.  So many in our society today seem to have slipped from the moorings of safety and drifted from the harbor of peace.

Failure Is Part of the Plan

Often we look at failure as something that is bad or wrong...and perhaps sometimes it can be.  However, failure, if faced with faith, can also lead us to have more meaningful lives, prepare us for a higher level of success, and draw us closer to God as we persevere with hope in our hearts.

Gaining a Spiritual Witness of the Book of Mormon

I was a member for several years before having received a true and strong testimony of the Book of Mormon.  I always knew it was true, and I had faith in it, but I never really received a true witness for years after my baptism.  After having received my personal witness, I learned of the strength the Book of Mormon offers to those who live according to the words of the prophets who testify of Christ within its pages.  It is a powerful source and it has greatly blessed my life.

A Mighty Change of Heart

Since I have joined the Church, I have experienced again and again the power of prayer.  I have seen a man come from darkness to light, a miracle we were losing hope of ever witnessing.  This is the true story of my father in law.  He has proven that there is a Father in heaven who loves us, hears our prayers, and answers them in His due time.
