2024 Annual Meeting. Elder Ben Cordes points us towards the God of all comfort who comforts us in all our tribulation.

2024 Annual Meeting. Elder John Morgan Owens lifts our gaze and revives our hope to lay hold on the hope that is an anchor to our soul. When we view the brokenness of this world, we need to have a renewed vision of hope to be reminded this world is not our home and we […]

2024 Annual Meeting. Elder John Morgan Owens reminds of the somewhat uncomfortable truth that before God we are as dead dogs. No one would ever expect a dead dog to come unto them, and God does not expect us as dead dogs to come unto him to receive life. For those dogs that have received […]
