During my address this week at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., I shared that living together in peace requires goodwill among those who differ.
Knowing that we are all children of God gives us a divine vision of the worth of all others.
I pray to our Heavenly Father for His blessings upon us that we will all seek to be peacemakers.
When I was a kid from West Valley City, we had a few businesses help my basketball team get to a tournament in Boston. It was an experience I’ll never forget.
Today’s #5DollarFriday is to help @For3JT do the same for kids who have very difficult circumstances.
Let’s give these young men a chance to live a dream and travel to South Carolina to compete. 🙏

The literal resurrection of Jesus is, of course, the subject of so many scriptures that it is settled doctrine for believers of the Bible and Book of Mormon. For us, the universal resurrection is equally certain.
I wonder if we fully appreciate the enormous significance of our belief in a literal, universal resurrection. The conviction that death is not the conclusion of our identity changes the whole perspective of our mortal life.
It affects how we look on the physical challenges of mortality. It gives us the strength and perspective to endure the mortal challenges faced by each of us and by those we love.
It signifies that mortal deficiencies are only temporary! It also gives us the courage to face our own death or that of loved ones—even deaths we might call premature.
Our belief in the resurrection also encourages us to fulfill our family responsibilities in mortality. It helps us live together in love in this life in anticipation of joyful reunions and associations in the next.
