Secret societies of evil doers have been on the earth since Cain slew Able. They show up in the Bible as 'Priestcrafts' and in the Book of Mormon as both Priestcrafts and Secret Combinations with both the Jaredites in the book of Ether and also throughout the Nephite history. We are told there that they have always existed, and when I consider the effort Mormon and Moroni made to include their accounts in the records we have, that leads me to think just maybe they are around today as well. Th...

Why are there biblical scriptures in the Book of Mormon? What was so important about Isaiah that he occupies one quarter of the first hundred pages of a book who's authors all spoke of the difficulty of writing, and that only the most important words should be included. Why take up valuable space to include words that would be available elsewhere? Isaiah is the most quoted prophet in the Bible. He is even quoted more than the Savior himself so, apparently, what he has to say must be very impo...

Latter-Day scriptures have revealed to us that there is much more to heaven and earth than is at first apparent. As scientists unravel the mysteries of the universe, we are tasked with unravelling the mysteries of God and Heaven. thankfully, we have the scriptures both old and modern to help us in that challenge. and I wonder, is there any crossover between Science and our doctrines? I believe there is; I see God's hand in everything we encounter all around us. And I believe that science has ...

Three of the greatest questions that confront humans today are: Why am I here? Where did I come from? and, Where am I going after this life is over? For some, these are consuming questions and they generate a lifetime of searching. For others, they seem unimportant...more curiosities than anything else. But could it be that there is important information to be learned that might very probably give direction to our lives if we understood the answers fully? So, how do we find those answers, and...

How can we say the Book of Mormon contains the fulness of the gospel when it does not mention those things we consider the basics? It does not mention the Pre-existence, nor the Three Degrees of glory. It does not mention temples in the context that we see them, nor does it mention the everlasting covenant of Marriage and the continuation of the family. And yet, right in the Title Page it claims to contain the fulness of the gospel. How can that be? Well I invite you to tune and join me...

Two curious prophecies are found in the Bible that have the world puzzled; one is from Ezekiel about the Stick of Joseph; the other is about a sealed book and is mentioned by the prophet Isaiah. Today we are going to see of we can decipher those two prophecies. I hope you will stick around and find out how we do.

Are LDS people Christians? Probably one of the silliest questions in the public conversation today. Of course we are, and we shouldn't have to prove that to anybody; but we do. So let's take a look at the critics and what their arguments are. I'll bet they all revolve around the doctrine of the Trinity. Let's see what that's all about!

With God having our back, who can stand in front of us? Well, it turns out the whole world can stand in front of us. One would think that being partnered with the Lord would ease our way and smooth the path, but that is hardly ever the case. The followers of the Lord have always been tried and tested and opposed by the world. So, why is that? And why not just give up and take the easy way? if that is the way you are tempted to take, hold on a minute before you do, and listen to, and con...

Angels, Demons, Anunnaki and Aliens. They are all entities of another dimension and space. But, are they all real? Seems like a simple question but the reality may just hold secrets of our own place in the universe. We are seeing a convergence of science and religion on these related matters. We have the stories, legends and myths of history, and now, we are being confronted with the very real possibility that there are alien life forms that are visiting earth. So many scientists, and m...

In the Doctrine and Covenants there are only two women ever mentioned...one is Ema Smith - of course - ands the other is a lady named Vienna Jaques. she is mentioned only once, in section 90, but the promise made top her indicates she was an extraordinary woman...a woman about whom most of us know almost nothing. We hope to change that today. Please join me and my special guest, Shannon Taylor as we explore the life of this amazing woman.

Within the beauty of the Book of Mormon lie several oddities that I think are worth investigating and discussing. In the end, I believe understanding these oddities only adds to the testimony of the truthfulness of this great book. Come with me and let's explore them together.

We like to think of ourselves as good people, and we are. But, how good are we? Are we Nephites, or are we Lamanites? Or...are we somewhere in between? Well, let's find out together.

Do miracles still happen? It seem thy happened all the time in the old days. The Scriptures are full of them; so why don't they happen like that today? Well, maybe they do. Maybe there are miracles all around us. If that's true, what does it take to see them? How can we see the miracles that happen all around us and in our own lives? I invite you to listen and find out for yourselves. I hope you enjoy and are uplifted by what you hear.

The book of Revelation has always been both fascinating and confusing to virtually all the people of the world. Joseph Smith, while working on the translation of the Bible, was likewise confused and took his questions to the Lord. We received Section 77 as a result. It is a wonderful clarification of some of the more mysterious elements of Revelation. But I think, equally fascinating is the whole subject of Apocalyptic Visions; what are they? And how and when are they given, and to whom? &nbs...

Section 76 of the Doctrine and Covenants is, to my way of thinking, the beginning of the real differentiation of the doctrines of our church with the rest of the Christian world. True, the claim of a living prophet and modern revelation was intriguing, but the unveiling of the nature of heaven, and the mysteries of God's kingdom was something for which much of the world was unfamiliar with. Section 76 showed us the mercies of the Lord and gave us all great hope for the mysteries that aw...

Life is tough...just ask anybody. Most will tell you that life is a constant battle of one challenge after another. But is this the joy that we are all meant for? Why does opposition seem to always be ever-present with any project or task we undertake. Could it all be part of the plan? If so, how can it lead to joy and happiness? Let's find out together, shall we?

Today we are taking the opportunity to learn about the man who gave us the Book of Mormon. Mormon was the General of the Nephite army for at least 58 years, and much of that time was marked by the frustration of leading a faithless people destined to be destroyed. Mormon though, was a remarkable man and I'm privileged to tell his story. Sadly though, it will have to include the complete and utter destruction of the Nephite civilization.

The geography has long been a subject of curiosity for many, and a taboo for others. But the fact is, the Book of Mormon authors felt it was necessary to put in as much detail as they could in order help orient us as to the lands they were speaking about. In the 1800's common knowledge of the world didn't keep up with the Book of Mormon, but modern research and discovery has moved the book into the palm of modern thinking. I invite you to tune in an see what you think?

A continuation of my testimony and reasoning for believing that Joseph Smith was truly a Prophet of God.
