Are You Waiting for Blessings from God?
There are things we can do to receive blessings from God, but sometimes waiting is the right move.
What Won’t Change in the New Year
It was the end of 2012, and I was in high school. The thing everyone kept talking about was the end of the world AKA the end of the Mayan calendar. “This calendar is one of the most accurate,” people kept saying. “Since it’s ending, maybe the world will too.” Admittedly, this perspective was likely […]
Here’s Why God Cares About You
Do we matter to God? If He’s so powerful and great, why would He care about a bunch of messed up, weak humans? This is one of the most common concerns people have about God. If He’s real (and He is) then why would He bother with us? Doesn’t He have better things to do? […]
Deep Dive Into the Gospel
I stood on the beach and watched the waves crash, enjoying the sound and the breeze. I’d just finished the first stretch of a hike with my family, and between the heat and the humidity, it was a relief to feel the waves on my toes. Looking down the beach, I saw a wave hit […]

Miracles Don’t Hide
Miracles can seem few and far between (pardon the cliche). We all know life is rough, and that things often don’t go the way we want them to. Even when we ask God to give us the miracle we’re looking for. But in the New Testament, Jesus performed loads of miracles. Every place He went, […]
What’s So Bad About Satan’s Plan?
Growing up in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I heard a lot about “the war in heaven,” in other words, Satan refusing to follow God, convincing other children of God to follow him instead, and all of them being tossed out of heaven. As a child, I was always taught that the […]
