Being Daddy
PoeticIntensity
I recently wrote a piece about how much I miss the things that used to come so easily before I had children.
Although everything I wrote is true, writing that article caused me to reflect on how lucky I am to be a parent at all.
The things which I now miss due to parenthood are luxuries related to selfishness. The things I enjoy because...

As far as I go, I can think right now of one specific thing which I co...

I do not believe in the Church's stance on homosexuality. Which is that you can overcome those temptations,
that it is an awful sin, and as long as you don't act on it, youre okay.
I really don't believe that God would make 10% of...

So, I was reading this chapter when I came upon the phrase "fulness of joy" in verse 10. The phrase caught my eye primarily because it was only mentioned for the 3 Nephites who chose to stay. It was not mentioned for the others. That caused me to wonder how often the phrase "fulness of joy" is used in scr...
