    Somewhere along the way, education put the cart before the horse. I was taught to build the forms. My children were taught to fill them out. That may seem like a small difference, but it changes everything. When I first entered the workforce as a receptionist, I wasn’t simply shown where to type. I learned…

    In this life, he was my father. Today, I think of him as my guardian angel. I believe those we love do not simply disappear when they leave this mortal life. Their influence remains with us. Their love continues to shape us. As the familiar poem says, “Those we love don’t go away; they walk…

    The Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ: An Invitation to Remember Brothers and sisters, I am grateful for the opportunity to share a few thoughts today about the restored gospel of Jesus Christ.

    Sometimes I feel the world overlooks one of the simplest truths of my faith. I believe the history of Jesus Christ was not recorded only in the Bible. I believe He fulfilled His promise to visit His “other sheep” and that His ministry among the people of this promised land is preserved in the Book…

    To me, the pioneer movement was far more than a migration west. It was a movement of faith—a people striving to follow Jesus Christ according to the dictates of their own conscience. Men, women, and children left behind homes, possessions, and loved ones because they believed God had called them to continue the Restoration of…

    There are moments in motherhood that no one prepares you for. People tell you about sleepless nights with babies, scraped knees, first days of school, graduations, and weddings. They tell you that children grow up too fast and that one day you’ll miss the noise. What they rarely tell you is how deeply it hurts…

These are deeply personal beliefs that have shaped my life. As I share them, I recognize that each of us has our own experiences and our own…

    When the Court Comes Back a Third Time There is something different about the third round. The first time, people often believe it is an isolated event. The second time, they begin asking questions. By the third time, everyone should stop pretending nothing is wrong. Round three is no longer about a single crisis. It…

    of Corey and Krysta Kirton Niner Introduction This dispute is not about preventing our neighbors from accessing their own property. It is about protecting the boundaries, history, and integrity of our private 2.5-acre property, which is separate from the neighboring subdivision. Our property is not part of that subdivision. It has its own chain of…
