Amen to all this and thank you for writing such beautiful words ladies! And there’s so much history to unearth, isn’t there? I’ve been studying hard for a decade and I haven’t touched the history of those who stayed in Nauvoo. Brigham was a piece of work, wasn’t he? While I’m sure those who stayed had just as many demons as the pioneers that left, it breaks my heart to hear Brigham disparage little boys for following their mother. It’s another moment of “WTH have I been taught?!”

JUST last night my husband and I were saying all these same things about fasting!! It just makes no logical sense to believe we can fast and receive rain, yet we don’t bother fasting for peace in Gaza!? Or anything “real”? Bc it’s just a ludicrous way to truly believe God will listen if only more people are praying for the same thing and fasting too? Over and over, everyone is reaching the same conclusions completely separate from one another. THAT is the only actual collective God group work that is being done right now I believe.
