I just love your articles. They are so full of personal, faith filled, examples. I'm glad that you remember them with exactness and how they impacted your soul; because, it's as if I get to live that same experience too. Those feelings are as real to me as they are to you. I just love you. Thank you for bringing unity of faith to the Church:)

I cringe when the youth or anyone else bear a testimony saying they know the church is true and never mention the name Jesus except at the end when they close in His name. The church is only true because of Christ. The prophets are only prophets because of Christ. The Gospel is only true because it is the Good News of Christ. Seems to me we kinda get it backward when we testify of the things instead of the person, Jesus, who is the reason for all of it. I go back to President Nelson’s talk of the Atonement of Christ. The Atonement is the thing, but without the connection to the power of Christ, it is ineffectual.
