The Decade That Declared War on Faith, Family, and Morality The 1960s were not a cultural awakening. They were a declaration of war against everything sacred. America was once a nation built on biblical values. Church attendance was high, divorce was rare, and children were raised by their own two parents, often under the same roof, guided by the teachings of Jesus Christ. Then the 1960s came like a wrecking ball. What… Read more

It Began with a Newspaper Clipping in Palmyra While visiting the Grandin Printing Press in Palmyra, New York, I noticed a framed clipping from an 1830 edition of The Reflector, a local paper. The display explained how the editor, Abner Cole, had printed unauthorized excerpts from the Book of Mormon before it was officially released. That small piece of paper told a much bigger story. It marked the beginning of one of… Read more

Is the Nehor Principle Damning? A Latter-day Saint Reflection on Accountability, Salvation, and the Modern Christian Message This all started with a simple suggestion from two young missionaries.

I appreciated it at face value. It was motivational and… Read more

This 1982 speech by President Ezra Taft Benson stands as one of the most prophetic warnings ever delivered about the destruction of the American family—and looking at society today, his predictions have come to pass with devastating accuracy. https://youtu.be/NX3vO8tHy9k The Prophetic Warning Fulfilled When President Benson delivered this address, he cited statistics that seemed alarming then but look almost quaint now: one in three marriages ending in divorce, traditional families comprising just… Read more

God is on the move—and not even the world’s most influential skeptics are beyond His reach. Joe Rogan, the UFC commentator and podcast titan who once openly mocked Christianity and scoffed at faith, is now walking through the doors of a church. Yes, you read that right. The same Joe Rogan who dismissed the Bible as mythology is now seeking truth where it’s always been found—in the house of the Lord. This… Read more

That it’s a private matter, a personal vice. But here’s the truth: pornography is a spiritual plague, engineered to enslave, erode, and ultimately exterminate the moral foundation of Western civilization. And it’s not an accident. It’s a machine—funded, pushed, and protected by people who know exactly… Read more

After reviewing Church materials and scripture,… Read more
