A few of my favorite things - Book of Mormon

4th general conference- spirit poured down. Oh how I love general conference! How much I look forward to and need its messages every 6 months!

The prophet is the mouthpiece of God! He only receives revelation for the Church! We are preparing for the Saviors second coming- His voice is as a trump through all the natural disasters and Covid! We look forward to the Millennium when Satan will be bound for 1000 years!

Importance of marriage- not something to enter in lightly or get out of quickly! Importance of church courts! The love God reveals in those- He truly wants all! The importance of taking people privately and fixing our grievances.

The Lord gives this new church, this group gathering to Ohio, His law. His way to become as He is!

Edward Partridge called as the first bishop of the church! What a heavy load. How important was his personal revelation from god to guide this growing church with so many different, human people! Love that the lord knows his pure heart

The story of James Covill, a Methodist minister, is heart breaking! Does God come first in our lives? When we covenant to follow Him would we give all to do just that? To me the definition of Hell is going back and realizing the Lord had so much more in store for us if we just would have been willing to sacrifice what we thought mattered!

The church is called to gather in Ohio! What a huge sacrifice and yet- God is gathering and taking His growing church further and further West to be His people! Temple blessings await and that is far greater than any sacrifice made!

Edward partridge the first bishop of the church - comes to meet Joseph smith and joins the church; At significant cost to him financially and family relationships. Another great example of someone who gave everything to build Gods kingdom and benefit all of us!

Sidney Rigdon called as a scribe for the translation of the Bible. He Elvis called to stand by Joseph and to watch over him, which he does! He brings so many great leaders into the church! These people he has gathered seeking for truth! They find it and embrace it

Orson Pratt was amazing!! So much like Joseph smith- searching and praying for truth from a young age! Finally being taught it by his brother Parley! He embraced it with all his heart at 19. He was a missionary and an apostle for 60 years!
