Stand with Lynnette87. A Call to Action for Covenant WomenThe firestorm of controversy surrounding women and their role in God's Church and Kingdom has, once again, been brewing on social media. The conversation is heated, as always, with personal attacks and angry defensiveness playing center stage.
While this is nothing new, this latest installment has encouraged me to ponder this question:
As covenant women of God, what is our role in this conversation? Let's talk about it!

From Strong-Willed Child to Thriving Adult with Jordan SheppardWhen my kids were young, strong-willed, and unwilling to bend on even the smallest issues, I worried constantly about how to help them put their determined spirits to good use. I even thought they might end up in prison one day. (True story!) But now that my kids are mostly grown, I am convinced that strong will is a gift from heaven!
In this episode, I am reposting an interview my husband and I did with our oldest son (the KING of strong will) shortly after he returned from his mission a few years ago. We talk about w...

But what if preparing our kids for the Second Coming beautifully overlaps with preparing them to succeed in life?

In my study on this topic, the phrase "abide the day" has repeatedly surfaced, inviting me to dig deeper. What does that mean in relation to the Savior's return?

Last June, I felt caught in a social media war between love and law –charity and chastity – tolerance and orthodoxy. I saw an army of pointed fingers on both sides. Some called for more love, tolerance, and acceptance. Others, in affirming God's laws, relentlessly published anti-pride messages, and some even publicly denounced the decisions of specific individuals.

Praying for Angels with Teri SheppardTeri Sheppard believes in angels and prays for their help daily - a practice that became more meaningful last year when she suddenly lost her 9-year-old grandson. He went to bed and never woke up for reasons only known to God.
Her faith in Jesus Christ sustained her through the heartwrenching days surrounding his death and through many years of personal health challenges and other trials. She has learned to be grateful in all circumstances and to serve God by serving others.
Teri's story is sure to inspire you.

When my kids were young, my husband and I felt inspired to transform our parenting in a way that went against the grain of popular parenting practices in a big way. We got some significant backlash for doing so, but our why kept us pushing forward, despite the opposition.
The result was transformative. All three of our kids who have launched into adulthood have, at separate times, thanked us for how we raised them.

After a few years of marriage, Amy's husband decided the Church was no longer for him. Several of her children later chose to walk away from the gospel: a choice that broke her heart.
In this episode, Amy talks about how she learned to move from fear for her family's future to faith that the Lord wa...

“Much of the major growth that is coming to the Church in the last days will come because many of the good women of the world … will be drawn to the Church in large numbers. This will happen to the degree that the women of the Church reflect righteousness and articulateness in their lives and to the degree that the women of the Church are seen as distinct and different—in happy ways—f...

She was born in the covenant, but her parents stopped attending church when she was young. Out of the blue, when she was 14 years old, her dad was called to be a Branch President of their Kansas branch, which thrust them back into activity.

Then, in early 2022, I abruptly changed directions, indefinitely putting all parenting rhetoric on the shelf.
