Finding the Many Joyful Messages in the Parable of the Ten Virgins
When President Camille Johnson spoke about the parable of the ten virgins, she highlighted how it teaches that "each of us is a steward of our own conversion." With so many mentions of this parable in recent remarks, we're diving in to gain deeper understanding of Jesus's words so we can carefully tend our testimonies and have enough oil for our lamps.
Lori Denning, BYUI Professor who brings elements of fun into the study of ancient scripture, helps us see the inherent joy in this parable, what it shows us about our personal relationships with the Savior, and how it teaches us to joyfully anticipate the His coming.
