Accountability

Every day we make choices and every choice we make, like it or not, we have to be accountable for. Much like the word "consequence," the word "accountability" has an unnecessary negative connotation to it. It is not inherently bad to be accountable for something. We look into what makes this concept so important in God's plan. It is woven in tightly with agency, one cannot exist without the other. We will have to be held accountable for how we used the agency given to us when it is finally time to stand before Christ for judgement.

Articles of Faith #2

We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam’s transgression.

#13

We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul—We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

Ye Are Creators

Listen here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4k6PhoMO74rYPSHEjPJVj9?si=nOiUi4ThQmSiTzKioA61tQ

Ever wonder why Genesis is at the beginning of the Bible? Why are people always so fascinated and attracted to creativity? We dig in to see how our relationship with the Creator directly affects our desire to do the same. From stacking blocks as a child to inventing the latest microchip to enhance computing power to the next towering skyscraper, to the latest friend added to your circle. Our whole lives center around creation in some form, perhaps it is something we inherited, and it is definitely something we should be developing and multiplying.

We Are Creators

“Set aside those things that don’t really matter and do something with eternal consequence” 

  • Also Richard G. Scott

 

“Learning to trust yourself is the greatest discovery in life. Think of it… you receive the most incredible idea you’ve ever received and then squander it away by asking someone else what they think of your idea. The idea was given to YOU because you have the capacity and the ability to make it come alive, whether you believe it or not.”

  • Tony Child

 

Challenge: Get creative, find opportunities for creation to enrich your life and the life of those around you.

Song of the Heart

Listen here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2PFubts1mHu3rXbcZ2zAtG?si=vR0SIyuyT96oh41JH6P9Lw

If a picture is worth a thousand words, music is worth all of the feelings. Music has a special ability to convey emotion to the listener unlike anything else. It can make you laugh or cry, feel happy or sad, have courage or feel depressed. Perhaps this is why God loves it so much. Join us as we explore a couple of hymns to see what emotion we can draw from them and consider why God considers songs of the heart to be prayers to Him.

After seeing a focus on the parable of the ten virgins during General Conference, we decided to dig in a bit to see what that's all about. Join us as we light our feeble lamps to try to guide you to the Bridegroom as best we know how. We may not be the brightest lights you'll find, but we are commanded to not hide our light.
