The Atonement and Slurpees

When I was a teenager there was a 7-Eleven convenience store seemingly on every corner. You couldn’t drive a couple of miles without passing one of their establishments beckoning you in for a Slurpee. They were everywhere. Back then I had no idea that each and every time I saw their green, orange and red […] The post The Atonement and Slurpees appeared first on Latter-day Saint Women Stand ..read more

I Don’t Miss Church

Sorry. But I don’t miss church. Do you? Just chew on that for a minute before you answer. This statement of fact is not a sign that my testimony or commitment to covenants is waning. It is not an admission that I don’t enjoy the fellowship of my ward family. Nor is it a rallying […] The post I Don’t Miss Church appeared first on Latter-day Saint Women Stand ..read more

Mormon Women Stand
by Stephanie Gifford
6M ago
Love. It seems like such a simple word, and yet it is being twisted and transformed on the campus of BYU-Provo. Some people are taking the idea of loving others and equating it with advocating for sinful behavior because it allegedly makes people happy. They say that people just want to love who they want […] The post The Myth of “Love = Love” on BYU Campus appeared first on Latter-day Saint Women Stand ..read more

Shocking Paragraph in New General Handbook
Mormon Women Stand
by Jenny Baker
6M ago
A new handbook for leaders and members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was just released in February 2020. While there are new guidelines added, a paragraph that was transferred from the old handbook may be the most shocking and unbelievable to most members. In the church administration section, 29:1, we read:  “Leaders […] The post Shocking Paragraph in New General Handbook appeared first on Latter-day Saint Women Stand ..read more

Unexpected Treasures Just in case you are not aware, the best part about reading talks from General Conference is the footnotes. There are unexpected treasures to find when you click on the little, blue numbers that are scattered throughout each talk. If you don’t believe me, check out Elder Neil L.

Maintaining Faith as We Wander Through the Wilderness
Mormon Women Stand
by Eden Morris
6M ago
One of the miraculous things about General Conference is how the messages prepared for a worldwide audience can feel so singular and personal. Weeks before the bi-annual event I pray for those asked to speak to feel inspired with the words the Lord wants his children to hear. However, after the messages are given and […] The post Maintaining Faith as We Wander Through the Wilderness appeared first on Latter-day Saint Women Stand ..read more

A ‘thing’ that has been on my brain over the past few years is the different ways people manage adversity. I’m talking about the serious stuff that inevitably hits most of us fortunate to be on this planet for an extended amount of time. This is mortality, after all.
