Religious conviction builds a community through covenant, as recognized by Mosiah in establishing teachers and priests in Zarahemla. The decline in church affiliation in the United States poses risks to society, as highlighted by the Atlantic, emphasizing the importance of religious connection in building strong communities. Research by scholars like Tyler Vanderwill at the Harvard Human Flourishing Center demonstrates the positive implications of religion on well-being, lifespan, and health, showcasing its unmatched impact on people's lives and development.
What is our part in building God’s kingdom? Dr. Jenet Erickson delves into the profound question of how we can contribute to building the kingdom of God. She explores Alma's solitude as a leader, the blessings of family life, and the transformative power of conversion through covenants and the Atonement of Jesus Christ.
