We got you @erc95. Plans + install are in the works. They’ll be located right next to the J-Dawgs, Cubby’s, Zupas development.

Sometimes the Lord asks us to step into responsibilities that feel bigger than we are. In those moments, I treasure the counsel, “Trust in the Lord” (Proverbs 3:5–6) and the Savior’s promise, “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you” (John 15:16).

When you feel you are not good enough for the task you have been called to do, remember: The Lord’s confidence gives you the ability to boldly move ahead. President Thomas S. Monson taught, “Whom the Lord calls, the Lord qualifies.”

Trust in the Lord.

Offer what you have and let Him make it perfect.

Move forward with humility and courage.

He will strengthen your works and magnify your consecrated efforts.

If you’re struggling right now in any way, skip the life hacks for a minute.

Go to church this Sunday.

Even if you don’t normally go. Even if you’re “spiritual not religious.” Even if you have PTSD from the religious boredom of church as a kid. Just go sit in the back row and be still for an hour.

Almost everything in your life right now is optimized for production or consumption. Slack, spreadsheets, TikTok, email, sales calls. All output and input. Almost nothing is sacred, quiet, or unmonetized.

Church is one of the last places left that isn’t trying to sell you something or steal your attention. It’s an hour built around the idea that you are more than your revenue, or your value. It's one of the few places where the only goal is to confess your flaws, let them go and have some faith.

It's a place that will welcome everyone, even and maybe especially if you hate yourself right now.

Sit, stand, sing, or just listen. Let someone read words that have outlived every empire and every market cycle.

Let your brain remember: money is a tool, not a god. You are not the sole author of your story.

You’ll walk back out into the same world, same problems, same bank account, but it will feel a little less loud and a little less about you. That’s insanely useful if you’re carrying heavy stuff right now.

Tomorrow, you can go back to your problems.
Today, give yourself permission to just be a human.

If things are brutal right now, consider this your permission slip: Close the laptop. Go to church. Let God be bigger than your to‑do list for one hour.

Following the tragic shooting targeting the Jewish Community in Sydney, Australia, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has issued the following statement:

We are deeply saddened by the tragedy that took place in Sydney targeting people of faith as they gathered. We condemn, and feel acutely the pain of, such a senseless act and mourn with our brothers and sisters in the Jewish community around the world. May we all come together in peace and love to comfort those in need. As followers of Jesus Christ, we look to His example and pray that His love will soften hearts and inspire harmony and compassion during this holy season.

This is absolutely the right move. Getting embarrassed in a bowl game against BYU would be really hard on the program. Much smarter to avoid playing tough teams so you can keep your brand intact.

#11 BYU is the lowest ranked 11-1 power conference team at the end of the regular season in CFP history.

Every other 11-1 power conference team since 2014 was ranked in the Top 10.

[Kramer @KramerHolle]

If you're going to penalize a 1-loss Power Conference team for a weak strength of schedule... BYU's SOS is better than Ole Miss and Notre Dame.

If you're going to penalize a team for not having the strongest power ratings (which incorporate prior year's history and recruiting rankings)... BYU's FPI is higher than Oklahoma's.

If you're going to penalize a team for a non-competitive / bad loss... Alabama lost by 14 to a team with a losing record and Miami lost to two unranked teams.

If you're going to use strength-of-record like you indicated you would, BYU's SOR is the second highest of teams 6-12.

BYU also (1) made its conference championship game and (2) if you sum up the wins of the teams it has beaten, it is THIRD in the country. It is hard to win games and BYU has beaten a lot of teams with a lot of wins.

This. Makes. No. Sense.

The @CFBPlayoff should be ashamed of itself. It has literally contorted itself into a pretzel to avoid putting BYU where it should be ranked (somewhere between 6th - 9th).

RT to get the info out there. They need to feel pressure.

[Jeff Fuller @jjfuller72]

65 independent computer systems collectively say that BYU is the SEVENTH best team in the nation…

Meanwhile some argue that the Big12 is a 1-bid league & tout 7 diff SEC teams being CFP worthy

If the CFP committee keeps BYU underrated at #11 the system is broken/rigged

How tough was Texas A&M's SEC schedule? The Aggies' SEC gauntlet:

7 wins vs. teams w/losing SEC records, a combined 11-41
4 wins vs. teams that fired coaches in season
1 loss to a team w/winning SEC record
