New Insights On Eve And Her Impact On Women - feat. Meghan Farner
MOMENTUM 2026 Cruise - https://www.cwicmedia.com/momentum Eve is always an enjoyable yet controversial topic. The Mother Of All Living has been derided throughout most of Christianity and its history. Of course the Latter-day Saints have a unique perspective. Meghan Farner takes this discussion further by first building a character of Eve from the Garden of Eden account, then giving context to one's temple experience, and finally, encouraging women everywhere to model that character. She also emphasizes men embracing their masculinity and women embracing their femininity. This is always a fascinating discussion. No two people agree on the interpretation of Eve's actions and the drama surrounding her.

Teddy Bear Jesus Denounced In The Doctrine and Covenants
As culture and even the Church move from an Exaltation focus to a grace-only focus, we remake God and Jesus into our own image. Into our own culture. But the opposite is true in the scriptures. As we study Doctrine and Covenants this year, we can see in Section 1 that Jesus does not introduce Himself as a Teddy Bear Jesus. Instead, he is the Redeemer of the world, tethered Himself to truth and justice. That is, He is full of "Grace and Truth." Website - www.cwicmedia.com

Where did the Plain And Precious Things go in the Old Testament? What are the key omissions we know about? Where is Christ in the Old Testament if "all the prophets prophesied of me?" How does the Documentary Hypothesis fit in? What about the scribal schools of Joseph vs Judah? How was the Old Testament put together? Are we reading the results of just a few controlling editors and scribes with a different religion than the religion of the prophets? Website - www.cwicmedia.com

Abortion Is Wrong - Elder Andersen
Journey Of Wisdom Cruise - https://www.cwicmedia.com/journey-of-wisdom The "Defining Circle" When you define something and state what it is, to protect that definition, you must also state what it is not. In his General Conference talk, Elder Andersen held nothing back in declaring that Abortion, except in extreme cases, is wrong. That as a church, we support the sanctity of life. And that as the world loses its love for the unborn, we should stay firm. Website - www.cwicmedia.com

Gospel On The Nile Cruise - https://www.cwicmedia.com/gospel-on-t... With so many Latter-day Saint voices online, who do you listen to? Some of the most popular videos are on the End Times.
