Numbered, Weighed, And Given Away Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 27, 2002

Sermon for Deacon Ordination service; we obsess on things that do not matter and ignore things that do make a difference. Our sin is using holy things for our own pleasure, compounded with a failure to read the signs of the times.

We give too much of ourselves to things that do not last. We give too little of ourselves to things that will endure. It is easy to obsess on things that don’t matter. It is tempting to ignore things that really count. If something does not change that pattern, at the end of the day, we are ...read more

The Amazing Truth About Angels Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 9, 2006
