Enduring to the End at the Chapel in Grand Blanc, Michigan

Last updated on: October 3, 2025 at 5:06 pm   By Delisa Hargrove

What does enduring to the end mean? This phrase has bounced around my head in various ways:  sometimes as an abstract plodding along until the Lord calls you home, sometimes as a holding fast to the iron rod.  As I’ve really pondered how I define “enduring to the end,” I realized that I’ve often felt it was a passive phrase. I was wrong. While studying the Doctrine and Covenants recently, “endure to the end” suddenly became much more active to... Read more

Married Mothers Are Happiest a New Study Concludes

After Nephi’s family crossed the sea and fled from Laman and Lemuel’s vengeance, they settled into the day-to-day routine of creating a life for themselves in a new land. In the midst of his family’s challenges to survive, Nephi made an incredible statement: And it came to pass that we lived after the manner of happiness. In Pursuit: Marriage, Motherhood, and Women’s Well-Being A new study released today by The Institute for Family Studies and The Wheatley Institute called “In... Read more

The Tabernacle Choir & its 5,000th Music & the Spoken Word

The Tabernacle Choir performs its 5,000th episode of Music & the Spoken Word on July 13, 2025!  What an incredible milestone. When asked how she feels about being a part of the 5,000th episode of Music & the Spoken Word, choir member Cheryl Utrera (Soprano) excitedly told me: I just stand here and think, “How did I get here?!” It’s humbling because you’re one piece in this big, giant mosiac, and it’s a special thing to be a part of. I... Read more

“In what way is Zion not in me?”

Last updated on: June 10, 2025 at 8:50 am   By Delisa Hargrove

Today in our adult Institute class, Sister Jackie Poulsen challenged us to pray to the Lord and ask, “In what way is Zion not in me?” I recently read Neal A. Maxwell’s Of one heart : the glory of the City of Enoch, which includes fictional letters from Mahijah, a curious, then faithful, follower of Enoch, to his non-believing friend, Omner.  Elder Maxwell’s deft way of exploring and explaining the cultural and philosophical basis of Enoch’s Zion had already challenged... Read more

Pentecost – Its Historical and Current Blessings

Last updated on: June 8, 2025 at 5:24 am   By Delisa Hargrove

Pentecost Sunday reminds us that the Holy Spirit filled those who gathered to hear the Apostles during the Feast of Firstfruits, or Pentecost.  This celebration of the harvest occurred fifty days after Passover or fifty days after Jesus Christ’s resurrection on Easter Sunday.  It’s an amazing story in Acts 2. 1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and... Read more

I Choose…Intentionally Choosing Jesus

Last updated on: May 16, 2025 at 12:02 pm   By Delisa Hargrove

0 Comments

The world’s cacophony grows ever louder.  My soul runs to stillness and seeks peace. Is it possible to live inside my self-made bubble? Experience says no. So while turmoil heightens and contention spreads, I turn to God for solace. We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; (2 Corinthians 4:8) Jesus distilled the law down to love Jesus taught His disciples that while they lived in the world, they must not be part of it. I look to their example, as... Read more

Laban Delivered into Nephi’s Hands

Last updated on: May 15, 2025 at 12:08 pm   By Delisa Hargrove

0 Comments

Trying to understand the story of Nephi slaying Laban at the Lord’s command caused me to mentally construct some law of Moses justifications for Nephi, really based on Nephi’s recollection of the event. I found several. I’ve also read scholars’ amazing, thoughtful analyses of the story. Ultimately, though, I landed on an answer Nephi gave for something he didn’t comprehend either. I know that [God] loveth his children; nevertheless, I do not know the meaning of all things. God commanded... Read more

Doctrine and Covenants 20 and The Articles of Faith

Last updated on: March 17, 2025 at 12:06 pm   By Delisa Hargrove

0 Comments

Doctrine and Covenants 20 became the foundational Articles and Covenants for The Church of Christ (known from 1838 to the present day as The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) organized on April 6, 1830. Section 20 includes core doctrines, ordinances, and structure and was used to unify the Church’s understanding as members joined the fledgling church with their preexisting beliefs and biases. While studying the section for a Sunday School class, I noticed verbiage that sounded a lot... Read more

Another Blood Moon Reminder that Jesus Will Return

Last updated on: March 13, 2025 at 12:35 pm   By Delisa Hargrove

As the moon turns to blood tonight, I can’t help but think of somber prophetic warnings that this heavenly sign portends Jesus Christ’s Second Coming. During creation, the God of Heaven appointed heavenly luminaries as signs and seasons.  Israel marked new months by the new moon and planned their important feast days accordingly. Prophets used the sun, moon, and stars in conjunction with important future events like Jesus Christ’s birth, death, and future Second Coming. Joel, Peter, and Joseph Smith... Read more

Tropical Cyclone Jude’s Reminder to Build upon the Rock

Last updated on: March 11, 2025 at 11:31 am   By Delisa Hargrove

On today’s family group thread, my brother alerted us to the fact that Tropical Cyclone Jude hit landfall in Mozambique and spun across that country towards Malawi, directly towards the city his missionary son was transferred to this week—Blantyre. To say that I hadn’t considered Bryce experiencing a hurricane/cyclone in Malawi, Africa, is an understatement. That thought never, ever crossed my mind. Suddenly, I’m googling Tropical Cyclone Jude and watching videos about its horrendous impact on Mozambique.  It tore across Mozambique at... Read more
