Stillman Pond
Broadcast Date: July 19, 2026
I don’t suppose that I’m alone when I say that – sometimes life gets pretty difficult. And I also have learned from past experience that when life seems difficult, sometimes it helps to hear about someone whose had it a little rougher than you. So with that in mind, may a share a story of a pioneer by the name of Stillman Pond?

Jesus the Pioneer
Broadcast Date: July 19, 2026
July is a month of remembrance. It is a blessing to us that such a time is set aside where we may remember and honor the great patriots and pioneers of our past. You know, it seems to me that the more we value what they did for us, the more sacred their memory becomes to us. So in that spirit, if a pioneer is one who at great personal…

October 23rd, 1856: The Willy Handcart Company was camped at the base of Rocky Ridge, Wyoming. They had just passed a cold and miserable night in the snow. If they had slept at all, it would have been because of sheer exhaustion. Starving, weak, and chilled, they now faced what would be their greatest triumph yet. They would have 15…

It was October 1846 when word reached Garden Grove, Iowa that Nauvoo ‘the beautiful’ had fallen, and the last of the Latter-Day Saints had been driven from the city.

The Power of His Name
Broadcast Date: July 12, 2026
You know, a name is an interesting thing; it’s more than just a word. A name is a symbol of the person who bears it. The more acquainted I become with you, the more the seeing or hearing of your name will affect me. Now with that in mind, there is one name we frequently hear and speak as Christians that is more important than any other on earth. Please consider:After…
Solomon and the Soil
Broadcast Date: July 12, 2026
Now I mentioned recently that Solomon became great and glorious because Solomon was good. But as did Saul and David before him, Solomon rebelled against the Lord in last years. He married many strange women of strange religion, and they turned his heart away from God to idolatry. Saul, David, and now Solomon all were beloved of the Lord in their youth, and were…
Martha and Mary

Have you ever noticed that there is a wonderful dynamic tension in this world of ours? – and ‘tension’s the right word. I mean, it’s good for us to be busy and under pressure to measure up, but at the same time we’re at high risk when we do so for feeling overwhelmed and under-qualified. Maybe you know the feeling. Happy and busy is wonderful; miserable and depressed…
Inside the Lines
Broadcast Date: July 12, 2026
Some years ago I was driving a truck in Wyoming. It was a three-unit combination: a truck and two trailers, about 80 – 90 feet long.
Early one summer morning I descended Tincup Pass into Star Valley, Wyoming. The sun was just cresting the mountains when I reached the valley floor, and the road began to level out and straighten. It – it was the last curve before that…
Alma's Conversion
Broadcast Date: July 12, 2026
In an age when human life is so little valued, and cheaply tossed aside like refuse, I ask, ‘what is a man worth?’ Of what value is a human life, a human soul? This story will illustrate.Alma was the son of a prophet. He had known the truth and felt the power of the word of God, but chose to fight it. His was not a gradual dwindling away from the faith. Rather, his…
