Apparently, a generation or two ago, the white-collar workplace was a much tougher environment. People yelled at each other and humiliated each other to get the jobs done – well, at least, those are the stories I’ve heard. And it may still be that way in some places....

The Mormon Church began with the First Vision. This is what we call the marvelous event where, in response to prayer, the Father and the Son appeared to the fourteen year-old Joseph Smith. Even though he had this vision in seclusion, it really belongs to everyone....

Some time ago, there was a significant challenge in my life. It stemmed from a struggle within my family that was beyond my ability to handle. Fortunately, I did not have to face it alone. I sought help from family, the bishop, and the Lord. Despite our best...

This post was originally published on MormonHub on November 15th, 2016. Minor changes have been made. I heard it in seminary. I heard it in institute. I heard it in devotionals, in religion classes, and in Sunday School. By the time I’d finished my religion...
