Our Savior Jesus Christ taught us how to relate to one another. The great commandments in the law, He taught, were to love—God and neighbor. (Matthew 22:37-39)
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.

It’s laughable that we extend the “public servant” to elected officials, as if they are somehow similar to police, firefighters, etc. I know it’s a broad brush…. But it seems most who seek elected positions are in it only for two things: money and power.
@emerantura Haha… dang it… I can’t believe my cougs lost the infamous corn dog vs cougar tail battle… devastating !! The one that I truly can’t handle: folks who misspell names of mascots as if it delivers some sort of devastating blow!!!! Asinine.
@JoelKlattShow@joelklatt By every metric… it’s BYU. Take away media and committee bias by doing a blind resume selection and it’s BYU 10 out of 10 times. If this were about choosing the best teams by resume… it’s impossible to argue any other scenario.
@OchoZaco Absolutely yes… how is this still an eye test for people who cannot avoid there own bias? It’s insane. There are soooo many quantitative measures available. People’s votes should have nothing to do with it. The same is true of the weekly rankings early on in the season
@BYUGuy87 It’s a rare perspective and completely misguided. Reading the other content from Gray Mountain adds some clarity as well. Bottom line, it’s not happening and sports have tremendous value in people’s lives in many ways.
@TheUteCoalition Every fan base has some of those… heck… sometimes I’m probably the first class moron. Just gotta enjoy watch the teams we love and not let the bitterness lead to being an idiot!!!
@UtahPigBus This is 💯% correct. I don’t understand the constant commenting about another school. Be a fan, have fun, cheer on your team… but stop with the endless need to compare, put down, and demean.
