Gary Player and Amanda Player Hall: Gratitude for the Gospel

Gary Player is one of the greatest golfers to ever play the game; he is known around the world as “The Black Knight.” His love for the sport is obvious, but it's clear there is one thing he loves more: His family. He and his wife, Vivienne, who passed away last year, are the parents of six kids. Gary and Vivienne’s story, which includes falling in love as teenagers and 65 years of marriage on earth, has set a powerful example for all who know them. But what does he have to do with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints? You’ll have to listen to this week’s episode to find out.

The priesthood revelation that changed the world, on 'Mormon Times TV'

The summer of 1978 was a turning point in my life. I’d just graduated from Brigham Young University in broadcast journalism and made a last-minute decision to apply for an internship in New York City — the Y.’s first group of communications students ever to work in the Big Apple as interns. My marriage prospects weren’t too enticing and the job offers weren’t pouring in, so I thought it would be the perfect place to get my feet wet in the industry (other than the TV internship I’d done the previous summer at KSL. Who’d have thought it would take me 34 years to return?).

Nelson made this powerful statement to the sisters of the Church: “How I yearn for you to understand that the restoration of the priesthood is just as relevant to you as a woman as it is to any man.” He then entreated the women of the Church “to study prayerfully all the truths you can find about priesthood power.”

By Ted L. Gibbons

INTRODUCTION: On Sunday, March 18, 1958, my father ordained me a Deacon. I received a letter from him that morning, and I kept it for many years. The paper itself has now disappeared, but the memory lingers. Among other things, somehow it was communicated to me that I would be authorized to act in the name of and in the place of God.
