Beets & Plenty : Here Abide

@FiredUpCoug Tell her that she should be looking forward to 42 - which is THE answer. 😉🎂 Props on the lovely breakfast!

My wife turned 40 today, and she's not too happy about it. Let's see if this brings a smile to her face...

Young men, It is time to turn the tide Dance in spite of the cameras Ask the girl out in spite of chances of rejection Be a gentleman Be authentic Fall in love Get married Have many children Go to church Love God Serve others Be grateful Work hard The world is your oyster and YOU are the CAPTAIN of your ship!👊🏻🙏🏻💙 x.com/alphafox/statu…

I'm really grateful for experiences where I felt the spirit so strongly that I tear up every time I think of them. I'm grateful that the feeling of the spirit was so undeniable in those moments. The church is true.

The fruits are good

The @realDailyWire content just tells me that Latter-day Saints will never fully belong to or align with any political coalition or group. What we hold to be true will always be at odds to some degree with the world and man-made organizations. It is important to associate with those who share values with us. It is important to build relationships with nations, groups and people. We still want to open doors to share the goodness of Jesus Christ. But our faith will never tie perfectly into a political ideology or coalition until Jesus Christ comes again and rules on the earth. “If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.” (AoF 13) There are plenty of these things in the world. But we must be careful to not confuse any political movements or affiliations with our true identity as children of God and disciples of Jesus Christ. We will always be a peculiar people. “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:” (1 Peter 2:9)

Believing in FALSE RELIGIONS or false doctrines that still lead you to do good IS NOT A SIN! Any belief that says different (that you deserve to suffer eternally for wrong but sincere benevolent held beliefs) IS OF THE DEVIL AND AN ABOMINATION!

@KimballCall Would 💯 support for my husband and sons to have an opportunity like that.

In my latest article, I offer a humble argument for why BYU should consider an annual conference for men to complement BYU Women's Conference. I absolutely love that we give women dedicated time for their issues, and I think men could benefit from similar treatment.

Probably

Hot take: In many ways, modern feminism is to women what pornography is to men. - They both demean and devalue the opposite sex. - They both gratify self. - They both cause friction and difficulties in relationships. - They both lie and distort reality. - They both create unrealistic expectations. - They both bring unhappiness.

This is the way.

Massive shout out to everybody doing their best to raise upright, competent children. You are literally securing the future of mankind. May God bless you, wherever you are.

Peacemaking is vastly different than peace keeping. Peacemaking requires effort, courage, and compassion for the eternal welfare of another…. Not simply avoiding offense. Peace keeping is simply skirting the truth that may create uncomfortable feelings— Peacekeeping is the cease fire, but not the problem solving of peacemaking. There is a peace on the other side of war that is qualitatively different than the ceasefire before the conflict. Sometimes war is required to make genuine peace. With this paradigm, Captain Moroni was one of the most serious peacemakers in the Book of Mormon.
