3 Ways to Defend the Family Without Offending Others

By Benjamin Hyrum White

One of the most cliché phrases in sports is “defense wins championships.” However, there is great truth to it, which is why it became so verbally repetitive in the first place. It doesn’t just apply to sports, though. It can also be applied to the gospel of Jesus Christ, specifically the doctrine of the family. Defending our families can lead to the greatest championship of all—eternal life with our Heavenly Parents.

Later histories record her name as Procla, or perhaps Claudia Procla, and suggest she was a God-fearer or perhaps even a proselyte to Judaism.
