Sharing The Goodness of The Gospel


The gospel of Jesus Christ means good news. The good news that Jesus Christ brings is that we can live with our families forever after this life if we live his doctrine. Christ tells us we must be baptized and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost in order to be sanctified and live with God, our father, and our family eternally in God's kingdom. "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God" (John 3:3)

We have been asked by Christ to share these truths. "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:" (Matthew 28:19). "Behold, I sent you out to testify and warn the people, and it becometh every man who hath been warned to warn his neighbor" (Doctrine & Covenants 88:81).

I've come to realize that one of the great responsibilities I have as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ is to spread the good news of Christ's gospel with others. There are times when this can be difficult in everyday life. I also know that people learn when they are ready to learn, and not when we are ready to teach them. This post is meant to be out there for someone who needs it at this time and wants to seek out Christ.

I hope this post helps someone who is looking to find happiness and wondering how they can be with their family forever. If anyone who has read this post desires to know more about their Savior, Jesus Christ and how he can help them live a happy and fulfilling and full life now and forever, they can chat with a representative of him here.

The Cave of Mental Illness

This is an essay I wrote in the Winter 2014 Semester for my Western Humanities class. I felt like I needed to share it. It is a bit long, but I assure you it's worth your time. Also, take some time to watch the quick video at the end. Jacob Hansen Professor Julie Ransom IHUM 201 Connection to Major 10 April 2014 The Cave of Mental Illness A mere seven months ago I had a different perception of reality. I found myself, as psychologist Kay Jamison puts it, “ enmeshed totally in the blackest caves of the mind ” (68). I, like Jamison, suffer from bipolar disorder. I was diagnosed about twenty months into my mission. Though I was in this cave, during the manic episode I experienced I felt more creative and energetic than I ever had. I felt little need to sleep and could think and make connections very quickly. I understood the world differently than others, and, so I thought, at a higher level. It was as if I had discovered a new revolutionary way of living and I was conf

Struggles with Perfectionism

 There are some days when we're just not feeling it. Sometimes we feel that all the cute churchy answers are nice on the outside but that they're really not going to make anything better. Sometimes it feels like wishful thinking. It seems weak.  At times I just want to rest in God's love. I just want to feel my Savior next to me. Sometimes I feel him there. Sometimes I don't. Sometimes there's a lot of negativity towards and around the church. And sometimes I can see why. I do see some things that are troubling. What I always hang on to is my personal relationship with Jesus Christ and the gift of the Holy Ghost I've been given. I know that sounds cheesy to some. They don't think it's a real thing. But I have felt peace so many times through the Holy Ghost. I've felt him tell me that Jesus says, "It's all gonna be ok. Just trust. Be patient. Ponder. Let go. Know that I've already paid the price. You don't need to prove anything to me
