Traveling Ireland Gluten-Free

Last updated on: October 28, 2023 at 4:44 pm By Abby Christianson

Before we came to Ireland I’d heard that a lot of folks here have celiacs. When people show up at the ER with stomach pain, that is the first test they run. So I wasn’t worried about trying to visit and be Gluten-Free. Ireland is amazing at labeling everything with 14 different allergens. Every restaurant has a book listing ingredients for everything they serve and labels the allergens clearly. In these ways, they are ahead of the US in food... Read more

Vacation With Autism – Adjusting For Your Child’s Benefit

Last updated on: October 28, 2023 at 8:29 pm By Abby Christianson

0 Comments

Our family vacations have always looked different than most. Our sweet autistic son highly influences what we do. I remember when we were in Hawaii when my son was 5, that we had to go swimming every day, or he was beside himself. We didn’t see much beyond the hotel property. Even though that could have been disappointing, my son was so entranced by small things that when I slowed down and saw things through his eyes, I didn’t care... Read more

We are enjoying a vacation in Ireland before my husband speaks at a conference in Dublin for work. It seemed the perfect time to see an amazing place with personal family significance. My mother’s family is from Ireland, and I have always wanted to come. But there were a few things I wish I had known before traveling to Ireland. I did extensive searches online before our trip, so this is not an uneducated list. But as most everyone missed... Read more

This October 10 is World Mental Health Day. As I reflected on this news, I remembered a time when I truly struggled with my life and the changes in it. God was my strength at that time.

Every year before school starts, my husband gives both my son and me a priesthood blessing. For my son, we have done this since kindergarten. It is to give him comfort and guidance for the coming school year. And now that we home school, I get a blessing too so that God can guide me as a teacher.

5 Gifts Of Daily Scripture Study

Last updated on: September 18, 2023 at 12:22 am By Abby Christianson

When my son was young, my husband traveled weekly for work. I was frazzled and stressed and a single parent 5 days a week. It was exhausting! Honestly, the only way I kept the sweet voice and patience I needed for a small child, was with daily scripture study. I found that on days I forgot to read, or slept in, I was more short-tempered. I felt more emotionally stretched, the days were longer, and problems loomed larger. With the... Read more

The LDS View Of The Cross Is Different Than You Think

Last updated on: September 7, 2023 at 11:13 pm By Abby Christianson

0 Comments

I have been a member of the LDS church my whole life. I often wondered why our church buildings have a spire on them and not a cross. But when I asked my Mom about it, as a young child, she told me that it is because we celebrate a living Christ, and not just His death. But now that I am older I see the cross a little differently. The Cross is everywhere in Christianity For many religions, the... Read more

Powerful Women Leaders Of The LDS Church

I’ve heard many say that the LDS church doesn’t allow women to be leaders. But on this International Women’s Day, I want to set the record straight. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints does have women leaders. And I’d like to tell you about my favorite three; Jean Bingham, Sheri Dew, and Emma Smith. In the LDS church, the Prophet and First Presidency are men. But the LDS church has equally heavy callings (AKA church jobs) for women... Read more

Death is an inevitable part of life. It’s a part that many fear, but the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have a unique understanding of the afterlife, thanks to restored doctrine. And that understanding takes away my fear of death. No Ghosts No Purgatory We lived in Heaven with God before we were born here on Earth. And we will return to Him again when we die.
