What’s So Good About Good Friday?

As Latter-day Saints, we often say that we focus more on Jesus’ resurrection than on His death, and we consider the atonement in Gethsemane as the most sacred event in Jesus’ life. In this episode, we consider a question we don’t think about too often, stemming from this: why have we not cultivated more robust ways to celebrate Holy Week, and all the events leading up to Easter Sunday? Especially when we compare it to all that we do leading up to Christmas? We sat down to talk with Eric Huntsman, a professor of ancient scripture at BYU and author of God So Loved the World: The Final Days of the Savior's Life.

2023 Recap with Heather Rackham

We are told many times that if we read our scriptures, say our prayers, go to the temple, and magnify our callings, we will always be led and directed by our Heavenly Parents. But what if we are doing that and the heavens seem silent? In this year's final episode of the 2023, Heather is reflecting back on her year and how it was a year that the heavens seemed very quiet. Instead of thinking something had gone terribly wrong, Heather shares the important lessons and purpose she has found in the quiet.  If you have had times in your life where you have felt like the heavens were quiet, then make sure to listen to this episode and reflect yourself on the reason perhaps why that happened and what your Heavenly Parents were trying to teach you.
