Faith is a little like geocaching. God gives us direction; but He does not always remove the mountain, the fence, the mud, or the mosquitoes.

Expectations can guide us, but they can also quietly become demands we place on life, others, and even God. This LDS talk explores how Jesus Christ helps us surrender our plans, trust the Father’s will, and keep walking in faith when life does not turn out the way we expected.

Our jobs do more than pay bills. In long days, tired hands, difficult people, and honest effort, God teaches patience, humility, responsibility, and faith. Sometimes the work shaping our testimony is the work we almost overlooked.

A personal testimony about losing my daughter, questioning God, and finding peace through the Atonement of Jesus Christ — where mercy meets justice, and grief is not the price.

An LDS reflection on stewardship, creation care, bees, water, wind, ice, and learning that the earth was never ours to waste.

An honest LDS talk about grief, grace, loss, and still choosing Christ when life hurts and the answers do not come easily.

It gets real when you are standing in grief; when prayers do not fix the thing you wanted fixed; when you bury a child; when the old answers feel too small for the pain in front of you.
