True faith is focused in and on the Lord Jesus Christ and is a principle of action, trust, and power. As we act in accordance with the truths of the Savior’s gospel and trust in His promises, we are blessed with the spiritual capacity to “rise up” and press forward through the challenges of mortality while experiencing the joys His gospel makes possible in our lives.

Enduring to the end is linked inextricably to the spiritual gift of charity. Enduring to the end is not merely a relentless determination to grit our teeth, hold on to the limits of our physical strength and mental capacity, and push through the challenges and adversities of mortal life; it is so much more than that. Enduring to the end is the joyous quest of a lifetime—a pressing forward with faith in Jesus Christ in a gradual process of trusting in and receiving help from our Savior to become more like Him. As our love for Him grows ever stronger and deeper, we can be blessed to receive spiritual perspective, the Lord’s empowering grace, and exceedingly great and indescribable joy.

Susan and I have spent the day with members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and other community members who were involved in the tragic shooting episode that took place in Michigan on Sunday. The devotion of these faithful members makes me want to be more devoted, and the faithfulness of these good people makes me want to be more faithful. They have the capacity—because of the eternal perspective of the gospel of Jesus Christ—to learn lessons in tragedy in mortality that prepare them for eternal life. We are familiar with the admonition that we should mourn with those that mourn. There are broken hearts here in Michigan. My invitation to any and all is to continue to pray for these good people.

If you feel discouraged in your efforts to hold family prayer or study the scriptures together, remember this: Power comes through consistency—not perfection.

Three years after Joseph Smith’s miraculous vision of God the Father and Jesus Christ, he was visited by an angel named Moroni, who declared that God had a work for Joseph to do—including the translation of ancient records that we now know as the Book of Mormon.

Rather than changing our circumstances, our Heavenly Father can change us and our hearts so we then can change our circumstances. This strength to change comes from Jesus Christ—an incredible gift from a loving God.

No matter how sophisticated and elegant AI technology ultimately may become, it simply can never bear witness of the Father and the Son nor reveal the truth of all things.

I have shared before what a day in my life looks like in the office and while on a local assignment. Because my recent assignment to South America was so full of amazing experiences and people, I wanted to share with you what I observed during a weekend from this trip.

In a world that increasingly may mock our beliefs, we will be known by our kindness, our service, our integrity. What a remarkable time to be a disciple of Jesus Christ and to never be ashamed of His gospel.

In response to a humble prayer of the 14-year-old Joseph Smith, the heavens were opened again. Revelation was restored. And the Lord’s voice was heard on earth. In this Sacred Grove began the Restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ in the latter days.

In the quiet countryside of upstate New York stands a place of protection, divine preparation, and revelation. It was here that Joseph Smith first obtained the record which we now know and love as The Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ.

The Book of Mormon is the keystone of our religion, a witness of the divinity of Jesus Christ, and a powerful tool for conversion. I invite you to read and study it often. To ponder it. To pray about it. And I promise that the Holy Ghost will confirm its truth to your heart and mind.
