As a busy bishop, I know how hard it can be to find the time to read the Ensign, so I've created this page to help other time-challenged members of the church find the time to make The Ensign Magazine a part of their daily routine. To contact me with questions or feedback, please send me an email.

Thanks,

Bishop Mike Terry
West Valley City,

After serving in the nursery several times, I came to realize how important that calling was. My nursery experience was challenging but also rewarding as I followed some important do's for the nursery.

Whenever I think that I can't afford to give fast offerings, I remember Cristian and his faithfulness, and I realize I have more than enough to give.

As a bishop, I witnessed a dramatic change as the virtue of the word of God came into the life of a young man. He manifested the virtues of change by his desire to repent and serve a mission.

When spouses learn of a partner’s involvement with an addiction— especially if that addiction involves pornography—they are likely to have diminished feelings of self-worth.

We come to know truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ not simply by the exercise of intellect or the process of logic but by acting on what we learn.

They began

And rejoiced—

Buried tiny bodies in shallow graves,

Wept, and began again.

They entered the valley

With joy—

Beat crickets off their vanishing crops,

Starved, wept, and began again.

They built their homes

With gladness—

Prepared them for burning against

an approaching army,

Wept, and began again.

They endured to the end.

They set the example.

Fighting our own crickets and armies,

We weep, remember, begin again—

And rejoice.

It is no wonder that President Uchtdorf feels so passionately about the sacred institution of the family. With great sincerity he testifies that the family is ordained of God. Family is of utmost importance to him. It was within his family that the seeds of his powerful faith were sown and nurtured. There he began to prepare for the fulfillment of his foreordination as a priesthood leader in the Church of God.

President Eyring still credits his wife for giving him a desire to do and be his best, and he’s grateful that she has blessed her children in the same way. He is quick to credit her for her example and spiritual influence on their family. She is equally complimentary, expressing gratitude for his sensitivity to the Spirit and the effective way he has taught and lived the gospel in their home.

Heeding the Voice of the Prophets. In our Father's great love for us, He has given us prophets for our time to lead us in an unbroken succession since the Restoration of this great work through the Prophet Joseph Smith in the early 1800's.
