What do you think of the revised "For the Strength of Youth" pamphlet? Is vagueness a higher and holier way? And if so, does this principle apply to other commandments? Will kids choose not to get face tattoos, gauges, and nose rings? And do we have any grounds to even say it wrong at all if they do? And how will it further divide the Church? @WardRadioShow @jaredadairbell @Mormonger @GrayM0untain @ldsoperative @ldslaw @CwicShow @LukeFHan @ThoughtfulSaint @TheExMoCringe @UchtdorfDF @ChristoffDTodd @MaximusMoroni @cardonellis

@sophron262 @michcooley You aren’t paying off student loans unless you are working at least 40hrs a week after residency. That mom is locked away from her kids for a long time. Every physician job is demanding, you’re on call, clinic is always spilling over into your personal life.

Pediatric neurology is one of the more relaxed medical professions. It’s very feasible that they can make it work. Especially if the dad is flexible. Look man, I don’t entirely disagree with your vision of the ideal. But manhood isn’t defined by doing everything just so. It’s about character, and this guy said, I love my wife and I’ll do what it takes to support her while I figure my own thing out. That’s being a foundation. That’s strong. And it’s just lame to nitpick this and get all up in arms. Conference sets a standard that works for most people. But the gospel is for everyone. And sometimes, the millions of variables of life come together in people’s lives to paint a different picture than what we might have a taste for. As long as it doesn’t directly violate the essential covenants, good for them. And their example can speak to the 1 apart from the 99.

This story is a wonderful representation of what God thinks masculinity should look like. Most of the outrage comes from misunderstanding what the post is saying. Nate’s statement makes it very clear that he’s trying to figure his own side of it out, but in the meantime what he knows he can do is support his wife. That’s exactly what divine masculinity looks like. Finding a way to be useful and serve his family despite whatever circumstances prevent him from fitting the traditional mold. Hats off, the guy is a champ for rolling up his sleeves instead of giving up. And the ones hating on this are probably either way too caught up in the worldly view of traditional masculinity, or they are coping with their own inadequacies. Probably both.

“I grew up in Arizona, served a mission in Mexico, and went to college thinking I had a pretty clear path for my life. Then I met my now wife Victoria, and everything changed in the best way. “She always knew she wanted to be a doctor. Pediatric neurology isn’t an easy road, but it’s who she is, compassionate, steady, brilliant, and drawn to help kids and families through the hardest things life hands them. When she got into med school in California, we packed up and moved. “Stepping into her dream together was an easy choice. I wanted to support her the way she has always supported me. And honestly, watching her work and sacrifice and love people like she does has strengthened my faith more than anything else. “My path hasn’t been as clear. I’ve tried different directions, learned a lot, prayed a lot. Some days I still feel like I’m figuring it out. But I do know that God doesn’t measure timelines. He measures love, humility, and the way we show up for each other. “Supporting her doesn’t shrink my purpose—it expands it. Our callings from God can look different, and that’s beautiful. I’m building my future too, but I’m grateful that right now, part of my purpose is cheering for the person I love most as she steps into hers. “There’s not one 'right way' to build a family or a future. For us, this is ours. And it’s sacred.” — Nate

@LDSLaw Yes. Indicators are relevant. We’re partners with the NAACP, an organization that funds litigation for abortion & trans rights. It peddles race consciousness & grievance… not the LDS ethic of color blindness & that all are alike until Christ. We give them money. That’s fungible.

An LDS 𝕏 post. Over the past few years, I keep encountering a repetitive refrain from many fellow members of the Church. Many of you have a deep, abiding concern that can probably be summarized this way: The Church is slowly being eaten by a cancerous element of niceness/tolerance/progressive messaging. Doctrines are being softly effaced. Prior teachings are being abandoned. The Church is embracing a kind of globalist, liberal ethos and is soft-pedaling any and all of the former "line in the sand" teachings of the recent past. The prophets/apostles are not teaching clear doctrines because many of their messages can be ambiguous or interpreted in conflicting ways. Because of this, it won't be long before the Church has totally drifted off course and becomes no different than any of the other church in the world that have embraced progressive value systems. Gay marriage sealings are just around the corner. Does that accurately reflect the feelings that many of you folks have?

@WilliamMeservy @michcooley Sure. Unlimited abortion. Sex changes for kids. Celebrating gay marriage. Those are way more aligned with the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Every time I see someone’s bio that says “America First. America Only. Christ is King”, I am reminded just how removed the MAGA movement is from the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. It’s hypocrisy, and — by my reading — Jesus had some strong opinions about hypocrites.

🔗: bit.ly/42474ks On March 3, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints announced the publication of “Rise Up and Speak,” a new volume featuring 52 select discourses of Eliza R. Snow, the Church’s second Relief Society general president and a key female figure in early Church history. Sister Kristin M Yee, second counselor in the Relief Society general presidency, expressed gratitude to the editors and others for their work to bring forth Sister Snow’s words, which have “power and strength” and point to the Savior, Jesus Christ. “She spoke as a devoted disciple of the Savior. She spoke by the Spirit and encouraged all women to do the same,” Sister Yee said. “The works that Eliza talked about are the works that we do today as sisters in Relief Society. It tells me this work is eternally relevant ... and it carries on today. Their stories are our stories.” “Rise Up and Speak” is the latest in a series of publications that highlight Latter-day Saint women’s history. In the past decade, the Church History Department has published seven works related to women's history in the Church.

@PopePiusXIIStan So many of you folks are deeply negative about the current state of the Church. It seems to be a common refrain.

@Ch_JesusChrist Sigh. Incoming talk on being peacemakers…. I wonder how long it will take the Church to figure out that they themselves are fomenting division by throwing too many bones that fuel and sustain a progressive faction in the LDS Church that subverts it from within.

Relief Society General President Camille N. Johnson taught a Utah audience about the importance of being kind on Friday, April 10, 2026.   “Our kind acts, one a day over a lifetime, are vital to the well-being of our families, community and nation,” President Johnson told more than 150 educators, business, government and religious leaders during the 2026 Kindness Summit at Rice-Eccles Stadium at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, Utah.   Learn more about her remarks on Newsroom. newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/presid…

@sophron262 @michcooley Worse, the post says at its conclusion: “There’s not one 'right way' to build a family or a future.” It even calls that prospect sacred. That is a departure from Family Proc and nearly every subsequent apostolic commentary on it, which prioritizes family over every other concern.

@sophron262 @michcooley The post is muddled and presents a muddled view. It doesn’t say we are working through an atypical situation but feel we’ve made it work by putting children, fatherhood, & motherhood as a priority and this is how we are doing it. It’s career focused and puts that as the priority.

@sophron262 @michcooley This family can do what they want, and work within that struggle… the point is not to attack them. But when Church PR says “There’s not one 'right way' to build a family or a future” that is said intentionally with an agenda antithetical to the gospel. There is a right way.

Clarity based on what? You’re presenting a piece as the totality. Masculinity is more than just providing. It certainly isn’t commanding your wife to sacrifice all her dreams in order to protect your sense of usefulness or your pride or whatever. And coming into the comments of my post and calling me beta and accusing me of taking estrogen because I can see the strength it required to shrug off his own uncertainty and support his wife’s education is omega behavior. Not Christlike and not masculine.

@sophron262 @michcooley Many come out of this with students loans at +500k. You can’t work in part-time & pay that off. I know mothers who work in these careers. They are absent from most of their kids formative years far more than most women. I wouldn’t call that sacred or what God thinks we should do.

@sophron262 @michcooley In meds school and residency you work 80 hours a week. Assuming this woman started here education at 18, her optimistic reproductive window, if she wants to be a serious part of her kids lives would be age 31 before she started having kids. And then you have student loans.

@sophron262 @michcooley I am a doctor. It takes 4 years of undergrad (hard science, not fluff classes), 4 years in medical school, 5 years in residency for peds neurology. It is impossible to have kids during that time without interrupting your training for a whole year & then you’d never see your kids.

@sophron262 @michcooley It’s a strength to pray for certainty about your career path. You aren’t perusing a passion project or a fun job, you are perusing a way to support a family. You aren’t commanding your wife to do anything. You are both reading the gospel and prioritizing your family above all.

@sophron262 @michcooley You endorse the post saying it’s “what God thinks masculinity should look like.” You assume this post was written by one of the quorum of the 12. It wasn’t. It was done by a PR department with an agenda. That agenda is antithetical to nearly every talk we’ve heard on this subject

@sophron262 @michcooley Clarity based on the family proclamation. It says this is masculinity: preside in love and righteousness, provide the necessities of life, protect our families. The posts says: “There’s not one 'right way' to build a family or a future. For us, this is ours. And it’s sacred.”

@ChazLermon @Ch_JesusChrist Critiquing the stay-at-home bro stance is both insensitive and too sensitive? You will never find happiness.
