Conference was so wonderful! I feel so blessed to be able to hear from our church leaders every 6 months. Stacey and I review and share our thoughts on some of our favorite talks from the most recent conference for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, October 2025. We are only able to cover a few of the talks, so please go do your own study of all of the talks. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2025/10/12stevenson?lang=eng https://www.churchofjesuschrist...
It feels as though so much is happening in our world right now and it feels like it is really hitting close to home. When times of crisis and sorrow happen, our prophets speak of hope. The Spirit brings hope, peace, love, and power. Not fear. The spirit settles our hearts and our minds but it may take a conscious effort on our part to invite that into our lives. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2001/10/living-in-the-fulness-of-times?lang=eng https://www.churchofjes...
When I first heard President Russell M. Nelson tell us that increasing our charity and virtue would give us confidence before God, I became instantly alert. How could improving my charity and virtue give me confidence before God? Rachele and I have thought about this and studied this over the past few months and still feel like we are learning and discovering. Here is our conversation on some of the things we have learned and the insights we have gained. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/st...
Sometimes things start to feel a little off spiritually. We need to refocus and realign regularly with our Savior. Building that relationship can be a strength and benefit to us in every area of our lives. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2019/04/36nelson?lang=eng https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2025/04/57nelson?lang=eng
Charity shares how a showing love through discipleship helped her through her own personal tragedy and continues to aid in building relationships today. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2025/04/27uchtdorf?lang=eng https://www.amazon.com/Focused-Fearless-Seven-Skills-Empower/dp/0578497093/ref=sr_1_1?crid=12X5C0XOPAGS7&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.pMI5YyvbSWw2TSw0XG11Iu_9RpsGmZkN0KoCGJZ9FJA.d5w3LWUpHCk_F07ob48YJIHXad9bK1jAjwxrBWXBi2Q&dib_tag=se&keywords=focused...
Have you ever played a game and had to wait forever for someone to take their turn? Remember, you can't rush a genius. Have you ever waited for things to unfold in your own life and you wonder if God is even paying attention? Remember, you can't rush a genius. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2021/04/12uchtdorf?lang=eng 2 Nephi 28:30
Faith and Trust is built through gratitude, remembering, and pressing on. Mindy and Amy discuss how these things help us build a relationship with our Heavenly Father. They discuss Elder Roman's talk from April 2025 General Conference. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2025/04/24roman?lang=eng
Jesus Christ is all the things we need Him to be. He brings us through so many difficult things. But He is also there to cheer us on and be happy with us.
We are told to get to the temple as often as we can. Meggin gave herself a couple of challenges that increased ability to be in the temple. Whether we live 5 min from a temple or 5 hours from a temple, let's set a goal to be in the temple. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2025/04/15rasband?lang=eng https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2024/10/57nelson?lang=eng
Have you ever had that big A-ha moment; that moment when you knew it was all true? Not me. Today I share my story of Conversion. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2021/10/59nelson?lang=eng https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2022/04/54pace?lang=eng
How has your church service refined you? How has it prepared you to meet your Savior again someday? In this episode, Amy and Amanda discuss Elder Steven D. Shumway's talk from the April 2025 General Conference from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Days Saints.
When you are telling a friend of a need you have for service, they may answer, "I know a guy!" And the proceed to give you the information of someone that could help you out. They may go to that person and advocate for you. But we all "know a Guy" that can help. And we can go to Him any time we need.
Friends. We all want them. As humans we need connection. But what do our friendships teach us about the friendship we can develop with our Heavenly Father? Join the conversation with Rachele as she shares some of her experiences that guided her in her friendship with Heavenly Father. We reference Elder David L. Buckner's talk from the October 2024 General Conference.
Sometimes we need to be intentional about how we perceive others or a situation. If I asked you if you wanted others to love you as Christ would, what would you say? Do you want others to give you the grace he would give? The forgiveness he would give? The time He would give? I think we all want to be handled in that way. What can we do to handle others in that manner?
Have you ever met someone who ends up speaking in General Conference later? When you hear there name announced as a speaker, your ears perk up and you are ready to really pay attention. Suddenly their message has more intrigue to you because of your connection to them. Ginny shares how she helped her children find a personal connection to the apostles and prophets and love General Conference. In this episode, we reference the talk from Kyle S. McKay from the October 2024 General Conference.
This is something I could talk about over and over. I feel so strongly about the changing power that gratitude has. It reaches into so many aspects of our lives! I share my thoughts and some experiences I have had with gratitude.
Journee shares her experience of her opportunity of working in the temple before her full-time mission. We talk about blessings, lessons learned, and Spirit felt. In this episode, we reference President Henry B. Eyring's talk from the April 2024 General Conference.
Join Amy and Rachele as we share some of our favorite highlights from the most recent General Conference from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, April 2025
