I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.   American Conservative University Podcast (ACU) is not an official representative for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

In this episode, we examine how Tim Ballard's ties to the LDS Church and his relationship with Former President M. Russell Ballard may have provided cover for the controversial "couple ruse" used in undercover operations. Allegations suggest this tactic, supported by Ballard's church ties, played a role in shielding him from scrutiny as claims of inappropriate behavior surfaced.

For President Jeffrey R. Holland, acting president of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, the past year has been perhaps the most challenging of his life. President Holland, 83, faced an extended illness; spoke at the funeral of his predecessor, President M. Russell Ballard; and dealt with the passing of his wife of 60 years, Sister Patricia Terry Holland. Speaking during the April 2024 general conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, President Holland said he felt he had received “an admonition to return to my ministry with more urgency, more consecration, more focus on the Savior, more faith in His word.” In this special episode of the Church News podcast, President Holland and guest host Sheri Dew, executive vice president of Deseret Management Corp. and a former member of the Relief Society general presidency, discuss how the gospel can help provide comfort in trials and bring joy in triumphs. The Church News Podcast is a weekly podcast that invites listeners to make a journey of connection with members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints across the globe. Host Jon Ryan Jensen, editor of The Church News, shares a unique view of the stories, events, and people who form this international faith. With each episode, listeners are asked to embark on a journey to learn from one another and ponder, “What do I know now?” because of the experience. Produced by KellieAnn Halvorsen.

Welcome Nephite Explorer to the podcast!

Get ready for an eye-opening multi-series interview with Ryan. From where Tim Ballard's controversial journey began in the conservative Mormon demographic, and the ethical concerns surrounding his efforts to combat child trafficking. Ryan shares his experience working closely with Tim and launching his American Covenant theories into mainstream Mormonism. In this gripping exposé, we peel back the layers of Tim Ballard's enigmatic persona, and unravel the complex web of connections between Tim Ballard, the Mormon Church, M. Russell Ballard, and Joseph Smith.

Your family members or friends already know the Church's teachings. They don't need another lecture! What they need—what we all need—is love and understanding, not judging. Share your positive experiences of living the gospel. The most powerful thing you can do is share your spiritual experiences with family and friends.

With senior apostle M. Russell Ballard's death, church President Russell Nelson's back injury and apostle Jeffrey Holland's recent illnesses, the focus has fallen once again on the top men who lead the 17 million-member Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Years, even decades, of policy, practice and precedent have established how the hierarchy is ordered — a governing First Presidency, usually made up of the faith's president and two counselors, at the pinnacle, followed by the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, the Presidency of the Seventy and general authority Seventies. But with all the members of the First Presidency in their 90s and increasingly aged apostles, questions are reemerging about a gerontocracy among these men, who must serve for life and are charged with guiding a global religion. Is emeritus status for these leaders an option? Should it be? And what about the general women's leaders? Does their service, capped at five years, prevent them from having more influence in the church? Historian Matthew Bowman, Howard W. Hunter Chair of Mormon Studies at Claremont Graduate University, addresses these questions and more on this week's podcast.

Joseph Walker is a communications professional and the author of 'Anxiously Engaged' which is the official biography of his close friend Elder M. Russell Ballard. Last Sunday, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints lost one of it's highest leaders. Known to some as 'the grandfather of the Church', Elder Ballard was the longest serving current general authority until his passing. I wanted to learn more about who Elder Ballard was, and his greatest contributions to the Church. Some highlights from this episode are how Elder Ballard's upbringing impacted him, his greatest contribution to the Church, when he failed to follow a spiritual prompting, when he brought rain to a nation desperate for it through prayer, and much more.Follow For All The Saints on social media and sign up to the newsletter for updates and inspiring weekly messages:For All The Saints episodes are released every Monday on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and more. If you have any suggestions for topics or guests, connect with Ben & Sean via hello@forallthesaints.org

Today we will contrast the Mormon church's claim the apostle M. Russell Ballard did not do anything to support OUR founder Tim Ballard, vs. Mormon millionaire Russell Brunson's public video acknowledging that Elder Ballard introduced Brunson to Ballard.

It’s very difficult to balance human behavior with supposedly God behavior! The recent news release of OUR and Tim Ballard and his association with M. Russell Ballard is telling. I’m sure it is causing cognitive dissonance in hundreds of members of the LDS Church. Today we will contemplate the issue with “calling” men to lead… Read More »Damn Those Blue Eyes!

Shelbi and Matthew sit down to discuss Pres. M. Russell Ballard's talk, "Remember What Matters Most." Resources FAIR Conference 2022 Faith Is Not by Chance, but by Choice by Elder Neil L. Andersen Bible Dictionary: Prayer Knowing That We Know by Elder Douglas L. Callister And Nothing Shall Offend Them by Elder David A. Bednar

When a spokesperson for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints offered a stinging rebuke of Tim Ballard, a fellow member and the charismatic founder of Operation Underground Railroad, an anti-human-trafficking organization, his defenders went ballistic. They were especially incensed when the statement said M. Russell Ballard, acting president of the faith's Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, disavowed Tim Ballard, who is no relation, and condemned the activist for using the senior apostle's name in his fundraising. It couldn't have come from the church they love, these Tim Ballard devotees reasoned. They had to believe that it was some kind of fake news, or worse, a deep conspiracy. Latter-day Saint historian Benjamin Park, though, had no trouble believing the church's condemnation of OUR's founder. He sees in Tim Ballard's impressive following a link to many other far-right causes and conspiracy theories — and even possible schism. Park, whose new book, “American Zion: A New History of Mormonism,” is due out in January, explores the larger issues he has observed within Tim Ballard's movement and the implications of extreme conservative politics for the church.

On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon continue to dissect the events of the past week involving Tim Ballard and the LDS Church. In the most recent VICE article, we delve into the use of psychic, Janet Russon, who is channeling information from dead Book of Mormon prophet Nephi, to guide the rescue missions of OUR.Did donors know that the operations were guided by Nephi through a psychic? Did M. Russell Ballard, apostle of the LDS church, know about the use of the psychic? The twists and turns just keep coming and Mormonish is here to bring you all the updates. Including Tim Ballard‘s most recent video where he again claims that there has been no official statement from the church denouncing him and he will continue with his new organization and his run for the Senate.How to DONATE to Mormonish PodcastWe appreciate our Mormonish viewers and listeners so much!

On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon unravel the events of the past week involving Tim Ballard and the LDS Church. In a statement in Vice Magazine, an LDS church spokesman publicly denounced Tim Ballard, founder of Our Underground Railroad and claimed he had very limited involvement with Apostle M. Russell Ballard, who Tim Ballard claims is a strong supporter of his organization and efforts. What follows is an ongoing story with so many twists and turns it's impossible to keep up! We try to sift through the information and bring you what's current and relevant in a way that's easy to follow. In some ways, there are even more questions than answers the deeper you dig.Just hours after taping this podcast, Tim Ballard made a statement to the press regarding the authenticity of the LDS church's statement.

Quick Clips: MELISSA The presidents of the BYUs gave speeches about the changes to the honor code and dress and grooming standards this week. Each spoke about it differently. BYU President Reese spoke of an “elevated standard”.  BYU-I President Meredith talked about it in terms of integrity and specifically stated that the dress and grooming standards are not matters of personal morality, BYU-Hawaii President Kauwe said that even some things not specifically prohibited by the standards might not be ok and encouraged men to “to carefully consult some women in your life about whether you should have a mustache or not.” MATT A lot of people are excited about the new three year online degrees being offered by BYU-Idaho. They get accreditation for this because they are very specific degree programs. They have been using a unique structure that pushes all of the GE requirements to the end of the program.

"Our hearts were drawn to the call of a prophet this April 2023 conference weekend. He reminded us that the easiest way to identify a follower of Christ is how compassionately that person treats other people. He told us that charity is the principal characteristic of a true follower of Christ, how charity defines a peacemaker. He promised us that if we would follow his counsel, we would arise as a spiritually strong woman of Christ. And then he told us the best is yet to come for those who spend their lives building up others.The prophet invited us to examine our discipleship, to make adjustments so that our behavior would be representative of a true follower of Jesus Christ. To live and interact with others in a higher, holier way. “I invite you to remember Jesus Christ. Pray to have the courage and wisdom to say or do what He would.” For the next six months, we plan to accept this invitation. In April and May, we will learn to UNDERSTAND HIS LOVE as we study the life and attributes of the PEACE GIVER. In June and July, we will study how to FEEL HIS LOVE as we find ways to experience PERSONAL PEACE. In August and September, we will discover how to SHARE HIS LOVE as we learn how to become PEACEMAKERS.Love gives second chances. Love asks, How can I help? Love is the welcoming in. Love doesn't stand higher, but meets people where they are. Love is never too good for someone. Love is full of grace. Love does not call attention to self. Love has an understanding heart. Love assumes the best. Love will not stand for injustice, helps carry the burden, creates trust, has high hopes and expectations. Love doesn't leave when things get tough.Love never fails.We look forward to spending the next six months with you!"

In rome and Florence, Jarred and I walked in and out of several different buildings and churches.  We walked up and down the cobblestone streets lined with buildings. We saw buildings and structures and rodeways that have been there for centuries! The Roman Forum, where goods were traded and sold like a street market or fair, was built before Christ's time. The Colosseum was finished in 80 AD.  Over 2000 years! Almost back to Christ's time on the earth! And many other buildings and structures like Michaelangelo's David which was finished in 1504 that have been standing for centuries.  As Jarred and I were walking around and marveling at the structures, the stories, the history, all of it, I remember having a conversation about how they made things to last.  When the people built their buildings, they were meant to stand the tests of time.  They have been able to withstand weather, flooding, natural disasters, and all sorts of catastrophes through the years. And there I was, hundreds and thousands of years later, walking around and getting to see what was there. I asked Jarred, what are we building that lasts? What are we building that we could leave our kids, grandkids, and great grandkids? Join in to this week's podcast as we talk about the 2 things I think that last and matter: Knowledge Relationships We will discuss how to nurture and make those things last! Eternal Marriage by F. Burton Howard Remember What Matters Most by M. Russell Ballard

We feel like the most meaningful thing we can do this week is to consider how the CFM initiative/program of the Church has helped you become more vertically connected. Find ways to share your faith in authentic and REAL ways. Talk of Him. Find Him. He is everywhere. — Quotes & Links: Link to FIND HIM New Testament Study Guide:https://www.seagullbook.com/find-him-new-testament-come-follow-me-guidebook.html “The gospel of Jesus Christ has the power to unite us. We are ultimately more alike than we are different. As members of God's family, we are truly brothers and sisters. Paul stated, “And [God] hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth.” (2021–A:53, M. Russell Ballard, Hope in Christ)“I had many pleasant gospel conversations. Good people—heads of states and other high officials in India, Pakistan, Jordan, Israel, Italy, Portugal, and other countries showed sincere interest in the Church and its people. Much Church literature has been mailed to new-found, good friends around the world. Their hospitality and friendliness will never be forgotten. Although we felt especially close to members of the Church, we were impressed with the fact that people everywhere are essentially good. They long for peace. They love their families and seek to improve themselves and raise their standards of living. I came back with a greater love for all of God's children—for he has truly ‘made of one blood all nations'” (Ezra Taft Benson, 1958)—Talk of Him is presented by Seagull Book and hosted by Ganel-Lyn Condie and John Fossum.
