Earlier today, I put my hands on the back of my desk chair and, to my surprise (and disgust), found that it was covered in dust. I use my desk chair pretty often, but I had never noticed it getting dusty because the back is almost always covered with a cardigan that I keep on […]

A Little Lift
This has been one of those weeks. You know the ones. The week when I end up tired, not just physically, but emotionally. When I’m sick of dealing with problems that I can’t control. And when things haven’t started to look up yet. I’m sure you can relate. We all hit weeks like that. What […]
Walking With Christ
This past week I went to see the Light of the World Garden at Thanksgiving Point in Lehi, Utah. It’s a series of 15 sculptures that depict scenes from the life of Jesus Christ. As I went through the garden, I couldn’t help feeling like I was stepping into the scriptures and joining the crowds […]
God Lifts Us Out of Loneliness
Loneliness is something that I think isn’t discussed enough. It’s something that hits all of us, whether in passing or perpetually, and it’s tough to deal with. As I was prepping to write this post, I looked over several articles on loneliness, and they all say similar things, like: Loneliness is common and widespread. The […]
Repentance and Hidden Frogs
Did that title freak you out a bit? Don’t worry, it’ll make sense in a few minutes. Lately, while reading my scriptures, I’ve noticed how often repentance is discussed.

3 Things to Remember When You Feel Like Giving Up
Mary knelt beside the empty garden tomb, tears streaming down her face with renewed grief and sorrow, when she heard Him ask, “Woman, why weepest thou?” Thinking the gardener had approached her, Mary turned to Him, asking Him to lead her to His body. If it was missing, she would recover it. His enemies had […]
3 Book of Mormon Testimonies of Jesus Christ
The Book of Mormon bears testimony of Christ and pairs with the Bible to make a strong witness of our Savior. The prophets of the Book of Mormon all have unique testimonies and we have so much to learn from them. They all testified of Christ, but their unique relationship to Him shows in their […]
Our Second Chance from Christ
In the Logan Temple, there is a painting of Jesus calling Lazarus from his tomb. It’s one of my favorite ones in the temple right now. And with today being Easter, the story of Lazarus being raised from the dead feels so relevant. There are two things in this painting that strike me every time […]

Jesus’s Last Return to Jerusalem
Two thousand years ago, Jesus Christ entered Jerusalem for the last time. Unlike His previous entrances to the city, this last approach was lauded and celebrated. Palm fronds waved around Him as He rode serenely past on a borrowed donkey, surrounded by His followers and apostles. Jesus knew, long before this impressive entrance into Jerusalem, […]
