On September 23, 1995, “The Family: A Proclamation to the World” was introduced. On this day in 1995, President Gordon B. Hinckley presented The Family: A Proclamation to the World during the General Relief Society Meeting. This document established divine principles and eternal standards concerning marriage, family roles, and the importance of a home built on gospel values. #ChurchHistory #LDS #FamilyProclamation

Scottie Scheffler just gave one of the best (and deepest) press conference answers ever heard.

One day when I was repairing the roof on our home, I went to a local store to purchase some additional supplies. I was wearing my customary work clothes—casual pants and shoes, a well-worn T-shirt, and a baseball hat. Wanting to quickly return home and complete my project, I hurriedly entered the store and began looking for the things I needed. A man approached me as I was selecting my supplies and said, “Elder Bednar, the disguise is not working.” We laughed, and then he inquired, “Do you mind if I ask you a question?” I responded, “Well, that is why I am here.” He replied quizzically, “What do you mean?” I said, “You are the reason I am here. I am doing repair work at my home, and I need a few things to finish the task. But I am not in this store simply to buy roofing nails. I am here because God knew we were going to meet each other in this store and that you had something about which you wanted to ask. Please go ahead and share with me your question.” We talked in the aisle for about 15 minutes, and I tried to help him find the answer to his question. Was it merely a coincidence that I encountered this good man at the local store? Or was this episode divinely orchestrated by a loving Savior who knew and responded to the concerns of a faithful man—a one? I believe that in the work of the Lord there is no such thing as a coincidence. The worth of souls is great in the sight of God.

The Babe of Bethlehem, the Lord Jesus Christ, is our Savior and our Redeemer. He is the Son of God, the Holy One of Israel.  He is the Anointed One.   Let us live in the spirit of “Hallelujah,” ever praising the Lord God Jehovah. At this glorious Christmas season, come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!

The fact that nascent America partook in sins that virtually every society on earth also indulged in is not evidence of permanent moral failure but evidence of the uncivilized and barbaric human condition from which we have emerged. It’s a reminder of how far we’ve come, how

“There’s no failure in sports. There’s good days, bad days, some days you are able to be successful, some days you are not, some days it is your turn, some days it’s not. That’s what sports is about. You don’t always win.” Giannis comments on “failure”

It is impossible to conceive that David McCullough is no longer with us. He is among our greatest historians, writing with an almost magical command of language and story. 1/2
