This blog is about my spiritual quest to be “Worthy of Zion” I have taken the liberty to talk about a few other things, some doctrinal and some reviews. Honestly, I’m not a huge reader. So, if I can watch or listen that is a big plus. I have really enjoyed a few things lately. It’s not so much that I think any one of them are right, more than I really like the topics and the way they present them.

REVIEW – Hello Saints – Pastor REACTS to Latter-day Saint View of Afterlife
This is going to be interesting. The talk given by Elder Oaks was marvelous. I absolutely loved it. But, how will Pastor Jeff take it? I can see it rubbing him wrong in a few places. He has hinted time and time again that this doctrine rubs him wrong because in his eyes it conflicts with the bible.

The most important thing you can learn in your life is to learn to hear and recognize the Holy Ghost. That is so important. I cannot even say how much.
General Conference – October 2023 Morning Session
My wife asked me the other day, what do I want out of General Conference? I asked her, what do you mean? She said, I should ask for some questions I would like answered while listening.

As I got into the truck, my back started to throb in sharp bursts of pain, down where my kidneys are. It was a throbbing pain that felt like somebody had punched me in the kidneys and my muscles were spasming.
