This Week - September 27, 2026

Temptation

Broadcast Date: September 27, 2026
In the war between good and evil, it is a surety that any man who goes it alone against evil will be pounded and marred as surely as were those spikes that pierced the Savior’s flesh. Hence, that you might not be pounded, this meaningful story has been preserved. After Jesus was baptized, the Spirit filled Him and took Him into the…

Monday

Broadcast Date: September 27, 2026
I’ve come to the conclusion that resorting to anger to deal with people is just about as useful a tool as a sledgehammer on a computer. It’s no wonder the Savior condemned it. Anger is fraught with far more regrets than benefits, as this story illustrates. A father came home from work one day, and found his children fighting over the…

Whoever Finds This, I Love You

Broadcast Date: September 27, 2026
You know, I have to confess that sometimes I just wish I could be a little better person – a little more kind, a little more caring, a little more sensitive to those in need, and I don’t think I’m alone in that. I just wish at times I could be a little more like the Savior, especially when I hear stories like this. Years ago there was a…

The Body and Blood

Broadcast Date: September 27, 2026
For any and all who have ever pondered the Communion of Christ, please consider this story: On the last night of the Savior’s life He entered the Garden of Gethsemane with his disciples, all of them being subjected to feelings and emotions exquisitely intense. “…the disciples began to be sore amazed, and very heavy, and to complain in…

Contention

Broadcast Date: September 27, 2026
Not long ago it was one of those days around my house where everyone seemed to be grouchy and grumpy and oh, glass egos everywhere. As snipping and snapping like a cage of sharks, we started our day. And I have to admit, I was no better than the rest of them. Two of my daughters even got into a heated argument over who got to read the…

Last Week

Jedediah Grant

Broadcast Date: September 20, 2026
I share the following in hopes that in a small way, we will have hope and hang on. Alma inquired diligently of the Lord to understand the resurrection. In answer, an angel of the Lord appeared and taught him about the “state of the soul between death and the resurrection.” “Behold,” he said, “it has been made known unto me by an angel that the spirits of all men as…

Articles of Confederation

Broadcast Date: September 20, 2026
May I speak for just a moment of a tiny little moment in American history? – that proved to be a monumental moment of courage that changed all our lives – indeed the world. May 1787, The United States were free, but barely so. They were in crisis. Driven by pride and greed, the States of the union fought amongst themselves, and refused to cooperate. They were a…

Katie's Prayer

Broadcast Date: September 20, 2026
When we pray and expect the spectacular and the grand for answers, as we often times do, we miss the way our Heavenly Father most frequently answers our prayers. May I illustrate by this story? For three years, Katie and her family lived in Argentina. At that time, Katie was a tiny, bubbly, eight-year-old the Argentines affectionately referred to as “la petisa,”…

The Battle Has Begun

Broadcast Date: September 20, 2026
The mind and heart of God are not the mind and heart of men. What is worthy of remembering in the eyes of God is often trivial and of no consequence to men. Well in that light, this story is an effort to remember a monumental moment in the eternal affairs of this earth. It is dedicated to those modern warriors of light anxiously engaged in the cause of Christ. Late…

Power

Broadcast Date: September 20, 2026
Power has always intrigued me, but even the most awesome displays of man’s power are puny in comparison to the power of God. During the Savior’s ministry, He was once accosted by a man possessed by a legion of devils. The afflicted man was widely known in the area as a crazy and wild man. He lived naked in the mountains and tombs continually crying and cutting…
