-- Marguerite Yourcenar, Memoirs of Hadrian

Mormon 9:3

Scripture

And now, my beloved brethren, after ye have gotten into this strait and narrow path, I would ask if all is done? Behold, I say unto you, Nay...

20 Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.

Real People

“It’s hard for us to relate to historical figures when all we have to go by is flat portraits wearing outdated period era garments. We don’t connect with them. But they were real people, with real feelings.”

— Becca Saladin
