Through the Atonement of Jesus Christ, sincere repentance brings His forgiving grace. While sin brings pain, His mercy offers relief, comfort, and joy. Come to Him and find the healing only He can give.

To forgive is divine because it reflects the mercy God offers each of us. He commands us to seek His mercy through repentance—and to show that same mercy by forgiving those who hurt us. Forgiveness doesn’t change the past, but it frees us to heal through Christ.

Adversity is part of Heavenly Father’s loving plan. Though trials bring pain, with the Lord’s help they refine us, deepen our faith, and shape us into who He knows we can become. Through Him, our hardest struggles become sacred steps toward growth and grace.

Holiness of heart means approaching God’s work humbly, pleading for His Spirit to sanctify our service. In Mosiah 18:12 Alma prayed for holiness of heart to baptize worthily. We can do the same in our callings, seeking His Spirit to guide and purify all we do in His name.

Immortality has inspired countless stories, but it is no fiction: through the Atonement of Jesus Christ, all will rise. Immortality is His unconditional gift to all who’ve lived. Indeed, one day, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that He is the Christ.

God doesn’t always spare us from trials, but He promises to see us through them. True faith is trusting not in a life without burdens, but in a God who strengthens us to endure them.

God’s plan for our eternal glory hinges on one truth: salvation comes through Jesus Christ alone—there is no other way. He is not just part of the plan—He is the plan. Our faith in Him and our obedience to His commandments is the way He has prepared for us to home.

As we hear of tragedies, our hearts break with Heaven’s. Christ weeps with those who mourn. He doesn’t always calm the storm outside, but He can calm the storm within. "Be still," He says—even amid tragedy. Let us be His hands to lift, comfort, and rebuild.

As disciples of Christ, we know that true civility is not convenient politeness but a covenantal duty. Even when it's hard, speak with charity, listen with humility, and seek understanding over victory. The world needs peacemakers, not agitators.

God never leaves us alone. Because He loves us, He speaks through chosen prophets—offering truth, guidance, and warnings to help us stay on the path to eternal life. He is always reaching out to lead us home.

Do you ever ponder what it means to change? • Come unto Him • Let go of what weighs you down • Love God-holding nothing back • Believe His grace is sufficient to make you perfect and whole (see Moroni 10:32) What would it mean for you personally to come to Him?

In God’s plan, covenants and ordinances aren’t just rituals—they’re how He shapes us to become like Him. As you make and keep sacred covenants, He promises you’ll be prepared for His Second Coming and you will return to the presence of the Father.

Ever feel paralyzed because you don't know what's next? Trust that you can move forward anyway—not because you know the plan, but because you trust God will provide when you get there.

“Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?” (Matt 8:26) The Savior calmed the sea then—and He can calm the storms in our lives now if we trust Him.

True discipleship is choosing God’s will over our own. When you yield your heart to Him—as He yielded to the Father—you will find freedom, peace, and the promise of eternal life.

At a time when voices of contention rise against the truths of the restored gospel, have the moral courage to stand firm with charity and clarity. True disciples confront error with conviction, compassion, and unshakable faith in the Savior of the world.

Fasting is more than going without food; it’s an invitation to let the Spirit guide us. As we choose this path, we find strength, peace, and deeper connection with God.

Courage isn't loud—it’s unshakeable. It stands for truth when no one else will. It follows Christ, no matter the cost.

“I established the Constitution of this land, by the hands of wise men whom I raised up unto this very purpose.” -D&C 101:80 We honor the Founding Fathers, whose work prepared the way for the Restoration of the gospel. Let us also honor God, who gave us our cherished freedoms.
