Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior of the World
This video testimony about Jesus Christ touched my heart. I know my Savior lives. I am so thankful for him and his atonement. I would be interested in hearing how you feel about the Savior too.

God's Words... Never Cease
These are exciting times to be alive. The gospel has been restored. Prophets and Apostles are on the earth once more. The Heavens are open. This powerful yet humble testimony by Elder Holland touches my heart.

The Good Samaritan
I've been thinking alot about this parable in the scriptures. There was some racism in that day and the people who Jesus was teaching this parable to knew of this people known as the Samaritans, who they universally looked down upon. It touches my heart that Jesus chose the Samaritan as the man who stopped to help the person who had fallen along side the road, when others, such as a Priest, passed by. The compassion showed by the Samaritan is humbling to me. It makes me want to be a better person. It makes me want to be a "good Samaritan". He even went as far to take the injured man to an inn and pay the innkeeper to take care of him for several days until he was better. He truly went the extra mile. And he did so for a person who would normally look down upon him.
This has application today. For many today look down upon others, for their religious beliefs, for their race, or for their station in life. Who was his neighbor? He that shewed mercy on him. I want to be a better neighbor.

I Had Seen a Vision
Part 1
Part 2
I testify that the gospel of Jesus Christ has been restored in its fullness, that the Priesthood is upon the earth once again, and that we have living Apostles and Prophets in our day. As your neighbor and friend, I invite you to read The Book of Mormon for yourself, then pray and ask God if it is true. He will answer your prayer. He loves you. You are his child. He lives.

Have you experienced The Book of Mormon?
I love The Book of Mormon. It has helped me so much in my life and has helped me feel closer to God. I especially like the part of the book that talks about Jesus Christ coming to visit the people of the Americas after his resurrection.
