Our Challenge to You:
For the next 6 weeks we will be posting a weeks worth of talks or links to videos every Sunday.  We invite you to follow the schedule outlined for the week and read/watch and ponder the words of our prophet today or previous prophets.   Each week will have a new theme the talks are based on.  
You are welcome to post a comment on something you've read or watched that touched you or something new you learned.  We would also encourage you to use the notebook provided to record your thoughts each day and at least one way you can apply what you have read to your life.  We will also take a minute at the beginning of Relief Society each week to give people a chance to share a thought or something they liked from the last week's readings.  You can share your thoughts with your family, other sisters in our ward or during a visiting teaching lesson as well.  In addition, the last week of this challenge we invite you to bear testimony to someone (in fast and testimony meeting, in fhe, to a non-member friend, etc) about living prophets.  
We hope by accepting and completing this challenge we will each be more prepared to listen to the words of our prophet and apostles at General Conference and strengthen our testimony of prophets.

  1. I like the simplicity of the dictionary definition of a prophet....to act as God's messenger and make known God's will. Perfect! THEY KNOW WHICH WAY THEY FACE!

  2. Well this is going to be fun. I am enjoying the daily nudges to read about the prophets. On this glorious Wednesday I am reminded what a gift it is to have a Prophet telling us what the Lord would have us know, expects us to know. I look forward to tomorrow.

  3. Looking forward to this conference - "In their words we hear the voice of the Lord and we feel the Savior’s love."
    To the RS presidency - Thanks for the invite to prepare so that we can draw nearer to Him.

  6. I loved President Monson's talk about choices. It reminded me of some things President Christensen said on Sunday. I want to get to the point that President Packer describes as "giving his agency to God".
