Challenging times can bring unexpected opportunities. Some of us just drown no matter what happens.

Prayers of Faith
More and more I feel like Job – Satan has been given leave to test me and try me in life. I know not what limits may exist on his influence but I intend not to complain against God for my misfortune. I would love to receive even greater blessings after it is over but…

Deep in Our Heart
The goal of the new Children and Youth program is to get the gospel deep into the hearts of our children. The study of doctrine will change behavior more than the study of behavior will.
