Submission
Broadcast Date: October 25, 2026
Like you, I have wondered sometimes why good people have to suffer – and oft times that more intensely and more frequently than the ungodly of this world.
Now, recently – I learned of one of the reasons why in something that began with Job.
Do you remember when Job said to his friends, “Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak,…
Jens & Elsie
Broadcast Date: October 25, 2026
Thursday, October 23, 1856 - Rocky Ridges Wyoming: Jen’s Nielsen and his wife Elsie struggled against the elements to pull their handcart over the barren rough terrain. The snow was deep and still coming, and the wind howled around them. The temperature with wind chill may have been well below zero. They were cold and weak, having…
Change
Broadcast Date: October 25, 2026
I am convinced that almost anyone can change. The purpose of life is to change. The sacrifice of the Savior insured that. And to me no character in the scriptures exemplifies change more than the Apostle Peter.
Three times on the night of the Savior’s betrayal Peter denied Him, and that after publicly proclaiming that he would never…
The Warning
Broadcast Date: October 25, 2026
It is my conviction that we live in the presence of God and angels, and that we are never unnoticed.
Many years ago I was dispatched in an 18-wheeler to a booming oil town in Wyoming. It was late at night when I finally arrived and got unloaded. Now, strangely I felt something that night in that town, something I have only felt once…
Jefferson
Broadcast Date: October 25, 2026
You know, it was once said that ‘a man who takes offense when offense was intended is a fool, and a man who takes offense when no offense was intended is an even bigger fool.’ Well, that’s a pretty high standard, but what would our homes and society be like if we could only reach it?
Nearly two hundred years ago as a man on foot…

Emmiline
Broadcast Date: October 18, 2026
It has been said that ‘man’s extremity is God’s opportunity.’ (David O. McKay)
Not long ago, on a brisk October morning, Emmeline, her sister MaryAnn, and her younger brother Nathan were in the family van, and on their way to school. As they rounded a corner, Emmeline was momentarily blinded by the rising sun. She had scarcely begun to press on the brakes when the…
Prodigal Son
Broadcast Date: October 18, 2026
Have you ever noticed in your personal discipleship how hard it is to change? If you’ve struggled with little habits, imagine how hard it is for someone to change who’s been trapped by a lifestyle for a long time. It’s hard. I know! I’ve often been asked, “What’s the most effective way to help someone who wants to change?” Maybe the following story will help answer…
Tooth Fairy
Broadcast Date: October 18, 2026
We have been commanded by our Father in Heaven to “…ask, and ye shall receive…” to make all our wants and wishes known to Him. (John 16:24) Still, there is a need for judgment and for wisdom in how we pray and what we pray for. May I illustrate?
Not long ago, I was traveling back from Wyoming, when my cell phone rang. I answered it, and it was my wife wondering…
Don't You See It?
Broadcast Date: October 18, 2026
I remember as a boy working on the ranch with my dad. It was a common thing in those days to see deer in the hills around our place. Dad seemed to have as uncanny knack for spotting those bucks from a long distance, even in heavy cover.
“Do you see him?” he’d say. “He’s standing right there near that tree.”
And I’d squint and I’d strain, but try as I might, it…
Pain
Broadcast Date: October 18, 2026
In Gethsemane, the Lord Jesus suffered pain of body and spirit in totality. It caused Him to sweat blood and shrink, but He saw it through. Then Judas, a friend, betrayed Him with a kiss.
Peter grabbed his sword – remember – and rushed to defend the Savior. But the Savior stopped him saying, “Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently…
