The Power of Everyday Scripture with Emily Belle Freeman

The scriptures provide us with the relief and peace we are seeking. We are promised that our testimony of the Savior will come through reading the word of God, and the scriptures will give us steadiness in an increasingly unstable world. Sometimes, it takes effort to get into the scriptures, but any effort we make is always worth it!

Becoming the Light with Emily Orton

We are taught that we all have a personal light from God, so how do we best shine that light so it grows brighter and brighter? Jesus said in the Sermon on the Mount, “Ye are the light of the world,” and as we come to know our divine selves, our light grows brighter and brighter.

Random Acts of Kindness: My Encounters With Mormons

Let me make it clear at the start that I am not (and never have been) a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. So I am writing as an outsider.

So, yes, I write as an outsider, but as a friend.
