By Rachelle J. Christensen

1. Buffer time. Always in a hurry to get out the door? Set the mood before church by allowing extra time to get ready. When you rush it is difficult to feel the Spirit.

SPONSORED: Choosing the Right - James Christensen’s 'Hold to the Rod'

In 2007, renowned LDS artist James Christensen created a painting titled Hold to the Rod, the Iron Rod. The painting features one of Christensen’s unique characters, in a predicament.
