This was shown at our Stake Enrichment Night last night, and I thought it was very moving and good. 
So, let’s all get out there and CREATE!!!

I know the Christmas season is past, but I wanted to share this anyway.  I wrote this for the December edition of our ward newsletter.  I think it’s a great message, regardless of the time of year. 
      I love the Christmas season!  People are generally more cheery, and friendlier and more caring towards their fellow [...]

I recently heard a song on the radio that made me stop, and reflect, and smile. In a world so filled with anger and bitterness and anti-religious sentiments, I found this a welcome refuge from the storm. I Saw God Today, by George Straight, is a song about a man who stops to notice all [...]

Another Christmas gone by, and I feel bit strange about it this year. We really didn’t have much in the bank for presents, and made the smart decision not to use the credit card this year. We got the kids 2 things each, which is less than we’ve ever done. Oddly, though, they were all [...]

We celebrate that because of Christ, we too can have [...]

Trust the Lord

I’ve recently been reminded of the necessity of trusting the Lord. This is something that I have been actively working on doing for the last several months. I’ve found, however, that it can be very difficult to trust and do the will of the Lord. We often think that we know better, and we can [...]

The time has come again for a new year. Usually the new year brings with it a host of “resolutions.” My belief, though, is that these resolutions, while being quite well-intentioned, are misguided. People make resolutions like “This year I will lose weight” or “This year I will be healthier” or “This year I will [...]
