Gratitude on the Sabbath Day
by President Henry B. Eyring
Below is the link to the General Conference talk by President Eyring. Between the link and here I share a few of my personal thoughts on the subject.
We’ve been counseled to keep the Sabbath Day holy. In the last couple years this has been reiterated.
I like it when the picture is drawn and we can see the practical how-to of counsel. Here is a game plan on how to do what was asked. If you’re keeping track, it’s a companion piece to other talks on the subject such as this one by Bishop Davies.
If you’re writing a how-to on the subject, how many other talks in this conference alone give us a step by step instruction on how to keep the Sabbath Day holy? What a great study that would be!
The Righteous Judge
by Elder Lynn G. Robbins

It’s a tricky subject this one. Judging is something we do. It’s a natural by-product of knowledge I suppose. When we know better and we are trying to live a certain way we notice when other people aren’t.
It takes a special kind of person to look past our oughts and recognize our ares. The compassion can’t be condescending because we notice when someone is ‘stooping’ to our level. It needs to be face to face. And that is no easy feat. I think it’s a talent. A much needed talent this world desperately needs.

This is a great reference for the question ‘what is worship.’ And what it means to worship. I have pondered that question several times. Continue reading
To Whom Shall We Go?
by Elder M. Russell Ballard
Below is the link to the General Conference talk by Elder Ballard. Between the link and here I share a few of my personal thoughts on the subject.
During a particularly dark mist of temptation, I distinctly remember trying to decide if I should let go of the iron rod. I wanted to. I felt abandoned and lost. I felt I had wasted my time all these years and all I wanted to do was to let go. Continue reading
The Great Plan of Redemption
by Linda S. Reeves
Below is the link to the General Conference talk by Sister Reeves. Between the link and here I share a few of my personal thoughts on the subject.
The gospel of Jesus Christ is the gospel of repentance. It is the good news that all of us – ALL OF US – need. We all need Jesus Christ. We all need repentance. It’s that simple. Continue reading
The Sacrament Can Help Us Become Holy
by Elder Peter F. Meurs

Have you noticed all the emphasis on the Sacrament and keeping the Sabbath Day holy? There must be a reason.
What do I need to do to step it up? Continue reading
Joy and Spiritual Survival
by President Russell M. Nelson
Below is the link to the General Conference talk by President Nelson. Between the link and here I share a few of my personal thoughts on the subject.
Pretty sure this talk was for me. I struggled with a trial during the last conference and this talk was specifically for me. Or so it seemed. Continue reading
The Perfect Path to Happiness
by President Thomas S. Monson
Below is the link to the General Conference talk by President Monson. Between the link and here I share a few of my personal thoughts on the subject.
His talks are getting shorter which means he is getting straight to the point. I can’t help but think he is sharing the most important things he has learned during his time on earth.
Let’s be wise and listen. Continue reading
Sharing the Restored Gospel
by Elder Dallin H. Oaks
Below is the link to the General Conference talk by Elder Oaks. Between the link and here I share a few of my personal thoughts on the subject.
Missionary work has never been my forte. I have come to the conclusion it’s best to be a disciple of Christ first and if that invites others to learn more, so be it.
It’s not about increasing numbers or goals, it’s about inviting others to find a way of life. A way of life that hopefully brings me happiness. If it doesn’t, then what’s the point of inviting others anyway? Continue reading
