“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” — Jim Rohn “Show me your friends, and I'll show you your future.” "We tend to become like those whom we admire." — Thomas S. Monson

“Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least.” – Johann Wolfgang von Goeth “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” – Winston Churchill “The past is behind; learn from it. The future is ahead; prepare for it. The present is here; live in it." – Thomas S. Monson

President Eyring speaks about the temple and the power of temple covenants. He shares a story about a time he and his wife found peace and comfort during a hard time because of their covenants. And he shared a few things President Nelson has promised us in recent years about temple attendance. “Perhaps this statement from President Thomas S. Monson best illustrates what Kathy and I felt on that unforgettable night. “As we attend the temple, there can come to us a dimension of spirituality and a feeling of peace. … We will grasp the true meaning of the words of the Savior when He said: ‘Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you. … Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid [John 14:27].'”" How has expressing emotions - to family or friends or a spouse - helped you feel more at peace? “It is through the sealing covenants in the temple that we can receive the assurance of loving family connections that will continue after death and last for eternity. Honoring marriage and family covenants made in temples of God will provide protection from the evil of selfishness and pride.” How can you be sympathetic to those who don't fit the ideal family found in The Family: A Proclamation to the World?

Elaine S. Dalton, former Young Women General President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, delivered an address at BYU-Idaho titled "The Lord Will Lead Thee by the Hand," emphasizing the importance of preparing to become faithful covenant leaders in the latter days through developing a covenant relationship with God. Drawing inspiration from scripture and citing President Thomas S. Monson as an exemplary covenant leader, Dalton highlights the significance of charity and promises those who embrace this path to hear the voice of the Lord and walk with the Savior by their side.

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.     ACU Endorsed Charities -------------------------------------------------------- Pre-Born!

Today, our interdenominational Christian ministry serves the poor in primarily 17 countries throughout the Caribbean and Latin America. Thanks to our faithful donors, we are able to provide food, housing, healthcare, education, fresh water, emergency relief, micro-enterprise solutions and much more. We are proud to have fed millions of people and provided more than 15.7 billion dollars in aid. Our faith inspires us to be an organization built on compassion, and motivated by love. Our mission is to bring relief to the poorest of the poor in the countries where we serve. We strive to reflect God's unconditional love. It's a sacrificial love that embraces all people regardless of race or religion. We believe that we can show His love by serving the “least of these” on this earth as Christ challenged us to do in Matthew 25. We pray that by God's grace, and with your support, we can continue to bring relief to the suffering and hope to the hopeless.

I think there will always be days when we may feel inadequate, maybe times when we feel deficient somehow, or possibly there may come moments when after all we can do, after all we have tried, our efforts seem to be in short supply. President Thomas S. Monson said, "Lest we at any time feel inadequate for the tasks ahead for us... may I share with you a statement made in 1979 by President Ezra Taft Benson, "God has saved for the final inning some of His strongest children who will help bear off the kingdom triumphantly.”

Even though our RIGHT of choice was a gift from God, it comes with RESPONSIBILITY and RESULTS.The ability to choose love has always been within you.Article by Thomas S.

“… [C]uando estamos en la obra del Señor”, prometió el presidente Thomas S. Monson, “tenemos derecho a recibir Su ayuda” (“Aprendamos, hagamos, seamos”, Liahona, noviembre de 2008, pág. 62). Sin embargo, no tenemos derecho a tener un camino fácil y un flujo de éxitos sin fin. Para prueba de ello basta el apóstol Pablo. El mandato que recibió del Salvador era: “…[L]levar mi nombre en presencia de los gentiles, y de reyes y de los hijos de Israel” (Hechos 9:15). En los capítulos 22–28 de Hechos, vemos a Pablo cumpliendo este mandato y afrontando gran oposición: cadenas, encarcelamiento, maltrato físico, naufragios y hasta una mordida de serpiente. Asimismo vemos que “… se le presentó el Señor y le dijo: Ten ánimo, Pablo” (Hechos 23:11). Las experiencias de Pablo son un recordatorio inspirador de que el llamado del Señor de “declarar [Su] evangelio con el son de regocijo” viene con esta promesa: “Elevad vuestros corazones y alegraos, porque yo estoy en medio de vosotros” (Doctrina y Convenios 29:4–5; véase también Mateo 28:19–20).

From Come Follow Me:“When we are on the Lord's errand,” President Thomas S. Monson promised, “we are entitled to the Lord's help” (“To Learn, to Do, to Be,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2008, 62). We are not entitled, however, to a smooth road and an endless stream of successes. For proof of this, we need look no further than Paul the Apostle. His errand from the Savior was “to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel” (Acts 9:15). In chapters 22–28 of Acts, we see Paul fulfilling this errand and facing great opposition—chains, imprisonment, physical abuse, a shipwreck, and even a snake attack. But we also see that Jesus “stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul” (Acts 23:11). Paul's experiences are an inspiring reminder that the Lord's call to “declare [His] gospel with the sound of rejoicing” comes with this promise: “Lift up your hearts and be glad, for I am in your midst” (Doctrine and Covenants 29:4–5; see also Matthew 28:19–20).The thoughts, ideas, and beliefs we express on this channel do not officially represent The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.  For additional information or official statements, please visit the website below.The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints:https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/?lang=eng#biblestudy #oldtestament #religion #churchofjesuschrist #ldspodcast #christianpodcast #missionary #lds #biblestories #christ #faith #faithinchrist #scriptures #bookofmormon #doctrineandcovenants #pearlofgreatprice #temples #houseofthelord #mormon #mormonbeliefs #chritiansandmormons #god #endure #ironrod #faithineveryfootstep #generalconference #prophets #followtheprophet #commandments #love #service #charity #keepstriving #keeponstriving #gospelgrowthandgoodtimes #become #newtestamentSupport the show

Today we discuss several problematic "revelations" by LDS prophets that succeeded Joseph Smith.  These include: John Taylor's 1886 revelation on the continuation of polygamy. The multiple "manifestos" allegedly ending the practice of polygamy (but not really). The lifting of the 1978 priesthood and temple ban against Mormons of African descent. Changes to the LDS temple ceremony over the years. Russell M. Nelson's condemnation of the use of the "Mormon" identity after Gordon B. Hinckley and Thomas S. Monson's strong support of the "Mormon" identity. The 2015 LGBTQ Exclusion policy, and the subsequent 2019 reversal of the policy/doctrine. The Mark Hofmann forgeries.

For years, Liz Wixom Johnsen helped families decorate their homes as a talented interior designer. And for years, Liz dreamed of a home that was like theirs—not because of the decor, but because of the families within those walls. As a single woman, she often longed for a home life that looked different than the one she had. But she also learned that true homes come in many different shapes and sizes. And when she married a man with eight children and her home was instantly dramatically different, that knowledge became invaluable. On this week's episode, Liz shares what she's learned about embracing the homes—and the lives—God has prepared for each one of us.

He leaves the pictures unpainted and the music unsung and the problems unsolved, that man might know the joys and glories of creation.” —Thomas S.

Episode 4January 16 - January 22 | John 1 | “We Have Found the Messiah”Love JesusFig Trees and Chick Fil ACan you see Jesus?#OldTestament2022 #comefollowme #comefollowme2022 #TalkofHim #FindHimJoin hosts Ganel-Lyn Condie and John Fossum on this New Testament episode of Talk of Him as we explore these important themes, topics, and questions from John 1: Jesus Christ as the Savior in our pre-mortal livesThe war in heaven and how we overcame Satan before we were bornWhat does it mean to be without guile? How intimately does God know you and watch over you?—Invitation: All of God's children here on earth showed in premortality that when they see clearly, they choose Jesus Christ. How can (and should) this understanding affect the way that we interact with God's children here on earth, especially with those who may not share our religious beliefs or lifestyle?— Quotes & Links: Link to FIND HIM New Testament Study Guide:https://www.seagullbook.com/find-him-new-testament-come-follow-me-guidebook.html Whenever we fall short in this life, we would each do well to remember that our faith in Jesus Christ saved us “in the beginning” (John 1:1), and our continued faith in the Savior during this life will enable us “to call down the powers of heaven for ourselves, for our families, and for our fellow travelers in this sometimes difficult journey back to our heavenly home” (Thomas S. Monson, “Kindness, Charity, and Love,” Ensign, May 2017). Rest assured, Jesus Christ will save us if we choose to continually hold fast to Him (see 1 Nephi 15:24)! (FIND HIM New Testament Study Guide by Ganel-Lyn Condie and John Fossum, p.7)“Some may think the idea of a society without guile is preposterous in this day. If so, it is because of the power Satan has over the hearts of men. With the Lord's help, the Saints can be without guile. Being honest and fair helps rather than hinders success and prosperity. … Can you imagine a total absence of contention and disputes, with no one ever attempting to deceive another? How would life be if we always were certain, without question, that what others represent to us is true? Theft would be unknown. We would have little use for jails or prisons, and litigation would be rare. The greatest blessing that would come to a society without guile is the individual, personal inner peace that comes to those who know they are doing right and know their lives are acceptable to the Lord. A society without guile is possible.” [1988–A:80, Joseph B. Wirthlin, Without Guile]“The Savior's reply demonstrated an even greater power of perception. He told Nathanael that before Philip had called him to come and see, Jesus saw him under a fig tree. Nathanael apparently had undergone some surpassing spiritual experience while praying, or meditating, or worshiping under a fig tree. The Lord, though absent in body, had been present with Nathanael in spirit. Nathanael then recognized the Savior as the Christ and said, “Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel” [1988–A:80, Joseph B. Wirthlin, Without Guile]—Talk of Him is presented by Seagull Book and hosted by Ganel-Lyn Condie and John Fossum.

Have you found Him? Consider someone who may not yet have heard this invitation, possibly a loved one who has grown tired in their seeking and does not feel they have found the Savior. How can you help them to go to Him in haste?— Quotes & Links: Link to FIND HIM New Testament Study Guide:https://www.seagullbook.com/find-him-new-testament-come-follow-me-guidebook.html Link to Come to Bethlehem and See by Ganel-Lyn Condie: https://www.seagullbook.com/come-to-bethlehem-and-see.html “Thus personally invited to undertake a search for the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger, did these shepherds concern themselves with the security of their possessions? Did they procrastinate in their search for Jesus? The record affirms that the shepherds said to one another, ‘Let us now go even unto Bethlehem. . . . “‘And they came with haste.' (Luke 2:15–16; emphasis added).” (Thomas S. Monson, in Conference Report, October 1965, 141).“In my mind, the shepherds represent valued helpers of our communities, the workers who take care of us—first responders, police officers, nurses, gas station attendants, and so many others—who work and watch often when most of us are sleeping the night away. God is just as aware of modern-day workers as He was aware of the Bethlehem field workers of Jesus's time. God watches over those who may at times seem invisible to the rest of society.” (Come to Bethlehem and See by Ganel-Lyn Condie)“So don't delay. Go in haste toward Jesus in your pile of laundry and bills. Go in haste in your anxiety and addictions. Go in haste to Him no matter where you are in life.” (FIND HIM New Testament Study Guide by Ganel-Lyn Condie and John Fossum, p.6)“If our sorrow and suffering strengthen our faith in our Savior, Jesus Christ, “[our] sorrow shall be turned to joy.” … The suffering in mortality will bring a greater appreciation of the blessings of a resurrected, perfect body. … Suffering to develop strength will not exceed our ability to endure to the end. … Trials give us the development of spirituality that we probably never would get if we didn't have the experience where the very jaws of hell gape open their mouth wide after us.” (1983–O:65, Robert D. Hales, Your Sorrow Shall Be Turned to Joy)—Talk of Him is presented by Seagull Book and hosted by Ganel-Lyn Condie and John Fossum.

Monson Quote #1: “This is our one and only chance at mortal life—here and now. [Note that he did NOT say “one and only chance to get it right”] … Opportunities come, and then they are gone. … I plead with you not to let those most important things pass you by as you plan for that illusive and nonexistent future when you will have time to do all that you want to do. Instead, find joy in the journey—now. … Let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey, and share our love with friends and family. One day each of us will run out of tomorrows. … Said one well-known author: ‘Both abundance and lack [of abundance] exist simultaneously in our lives, as parallel realities. It is always our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend … when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that's present—love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature, and personal pursuits that bring us [happiness]—the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience heaven on earth.'” (“Finding Joy in the Journey,” General Conference, October 2008)Thomas S. Monson Quote #2: “One who exemplified charity in his life was President George Albert Smith. Immediately following World War II, the Church had a drive to amass warm clothing to ship to suffering Saints in Europe. Elder Harold B. Lee and Elder Marion G. Romney took President George Albert Smith to Welfare Square in Salt Lake City to view the results. They were impressed by the generous response of the membership of the Church. They watched President Smith observing the workers as they packaged this great volume of donated clothing and shoes. They saw tears running down his face. After a few moments, President George Albert Smith removed his own new overcoat and said, “Please ship this also.” The Brethren said to him, “No, President, no; don't send that; it's cold and you need your coat.”  But President Smith would not take it back; and so his coat, with all the others, was sent to Europe, where the nights were long and dark and food and clothing were scarce. Then the shipments arrived. Joy and thanksgiving were expressed aloud, as well as in secret prayer.” [2000–A:52, Thomas S. Monson, Your Eternal Home]Dieter F. Uchtdorf Quote:“Repentance allows us to leave our sins behind and emerge a new creature. Because of Jesus Christ, our failures do not have to define us. They can refine us. Like a musician rehearsing scales, we can see our missteps, flaws, and sins

Christine Carol Robinson Burton is the niece of the late Mormon prophet Gordon B. Hinckley, and the daughter of Oliver Preston Robinson and Christine Hinckley Robinson.  Christine's father, Preston or "Pres" was a prominent professor of advertising a the University of Utah, general manager of the Deseret News Publishing Company and editor of the Deseret News, and a personal mentor to the late Mormon prophet Thomas S. Monson.  Preston was mentioned seven different times in the LDS Church-approved biography of Thomas S. Monson. In Christine's heartbreaking and inspiring story, she relates several tragic Mormon-related stories, including: Experiencing psychological, physical and sexual abuse at the hands of her parents. Feeling deep confusion trying to reconcile her parents' abuse with her own self-worth, given that her parents/family were publicly lauded on multiple occasions by several Mormon prophets as being exemplary.  This included her father being called as mission president in England, and both of her parents receiving their Second Anointing after the abuse. Her attempts to tell both Gordon B. Hinckley and Thomas S. Monson (as sitting prophets/apostles) about the abuse she experienced at the hands of her parents - wherein she was told by both that she needed to "put it behind her." The death by suicide of her gay son. Her loss of Mormon faith. Her commitment to helping others heal and grow after Mormonism. We hope you find value in this heartbreaking and inspiring episode.

This is a rebroadcast. The episode originally ran in August 2016. Greg McKeown has dedicated his career to discovering why some people and teams break through to the next level—and others don't. The definitive treatment of this issue is addressed in his New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller, Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less. Greg hosts The Essentialism Podcast and is the CEO of McKeown Inc., with clients including Adobe, Apple, Google, Facebook, Pixar, Salesforce.com, Symantec, Twitter, VMware, and Yahoo!. Originally from London, England, Greg now lives near Phoenix, Arizona, with his wife Anna and their family. In this interview Greg and Kurt talk about how the principle of Essentialism applies to his calling as bishop and the culture at-large in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. At the time of this recording, Greg was serving as bishop of his ward in California.

The disciplined pursuit of less. 22:40 Greg talks about his book Essentialism and why he wrote it. 30:30 The closet analogy of essentialism and how it relates to leadership Our obligation as leaders is not to our traditions, to the past, or to what other people are doing. Strip away all the things that are non-essentials. 36:30 The power of saying no. Can I say no to “inspired” requests? Remember to pause and think. Remember that the Lord's voice wins over any other voice. Divine tradeoffs are a requirement of our lives. There are always hard tradeoffs. There are good and great things but we need to do the essential things. 43:20 Think of all the things that Jesus DIDN'T do. He didn't feel the obligation to do everything. He did His Father's will. 45:30 How do you create a culture of essentialism in your ward? Focus on the people instead of the programs and activities. When it comes to meetings in the church, have a tight purpose and a loose agenda. 55:45 Thomas S. Monson's experience struggling with the social obligations of his calling versus following the spirit. His life was a beautiful example of putting people first and the social obligations second. 58:30 Think about what sacrifice really is. For thousands of years it meant to kill and to cut a baby lamb.

Ten years ago, President Thomas S. Monson opened the City Creek Shopping Center across from Temple Square with the immortal words, “Let's go shopping!” Where is the line between the sacred and the secular in Mormonism? Matthew Bowman explores that question in this week's episode. Recorded at the 2019 Sunstone Summer Symposium.

“If you have a pulse you have a purpose” MAC, 99 years old "A man without a purpose is like a ship without a rudder-never likely to reach home port.
