Such an authentic message. Love it. My family is not the brochure either and that’s ok. I’m working in my waiting. And loving in the waiting. And trusting God all will be well one day. And it will be.
I believe we can always help others and maybe at the right moment someone will be there to save our lives. This happened to my son. A stranger saved him from literally drowning.
Wow. So much truth here. The middle is messy… and so is the end if not for Jesus Christ. Thank you for the insights about Jacob and Sherem, and about people in general. So thankful that God has a plan for each of us. Thank you for the work you are doing to help spread these truths.
Thank you! This was excellent. I'm glad I decided to just see what this was about. I have a son I'd like to see one day at The other side academy. Thank you for your inspiring insights. ❤
This was so insightful and inspiring, as well as funny! Thank you. 🙏🏼 I will never view the scriptures you shared the same way. I appreciate the marvelous insights.
Interesting that he draws much of his talk from Jacob 5… I never liked reading that long allegory in Jacob 5 until one dark night in 2012, I found myself crying the same cry, “What more could I have done?” for my son and my children. That’s when I didn’t hear the audible voice but I remembered the Lord saying the same thing in this verse. It was a lightbulb moment for me then. If the Lord being perfect who has literally given all, including his only begotten Son, could ask the same question, how could I not trust in His love? I can’t explain how the dagger in my heart in that moment could somehow miraculously release. I don’t fully understand how I suddenly felt relief from the tangible pain I had felt in my mom heart lifted from me in this moment. All I know is that this was the moment when I no longer doubted in a Savior who heals the broken hearted. Jacob 5 is now and always will be one of my favorite chapters since 2012, and I appreciate the reminder and perspective you shared here coming to many of the same amazing insights and more! Thank you 🙏 for sharing!
My son was the heroin addict. Sadly he didn't make it. Fought addiction for 20 years. Attended And graduated from West Ridge Academy. Overdosed on Nov 4 2020 in Utah. He was an amazing son! ❤😊❤
My heart goes out to you, your family, your son and those who loved him. 💙 I'm also, so grateful to hear you recognize how wonderful your son is and that you love him. What a loving mother you are! 💞
Thank you. This has helped me so much and I have shared your talks with so many people, except my own children, although I wanted to. What do your sons feel when you share their mugshots with everyone? I am very curious of your relationship with them now?
He only shared a portion of the quote from Joseph Smith “Our Heavenly Father is more liberal in his views, and boundless in his mercies and blessings, than we are ready to believe or receive, and, at the same time, is more terrible to the workers of iniquity, more awful in the executions of his punishments, and more ready to detect every false way than we are apt to suppose him to be;@
I want to be part of this or believe in any of this but I cant force the belief. Like how do you know god set anything in motion now or years ago. And why did he set anything in motion for someone or not set anything in motion for anyone else. It apophenia. I can’t see past apophenia. Why did that person hand me $3. Well I purchased an item and that was my change. Predictable. I found $300 cash in a parking lot last year. Why. Because I said a prayer that morning or paid tithing or skipped a meal or shared a feeling of Christ. Maybe it was my wife did those things. What if it wasn’t a wealthy person that could afford to lose $300 bit a loss that put a family in a pickle. Do increase the assigning meaning (apophenia) and say god must be punishing someone by letting their money fall to the ground. Irrationally assigning meaning makes me want to scream. Calling out also makes me feel like an a**hole. However things that are not falsifiable or not provable- I know I’m not wrong and that cause huge cognitive dissonance and frustration for me. Makes me feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
I’ll one item regarding the Jackie Lola story and connection is a reason for another element of cognitive dissonance in me. We can see the value and empathy and connection in people that have been through similar to helping others get through similar. Unpopular opinion but that is where the atonement and Christ breaks for me. How can Christ empathize with the death of a mother or a child. Then we project that the atonement gives Christ the understanding of all our everything. Like a magic hand wave and Christ deeply understands your (fill in the blank) That doesn’t work for me anymore
