The Meghan Markle Metaphor...Since their infamous departure from The Royal Family Meghan has made self-promotion & self-pity into a business. Today we review what mishaps & mistakes (particularly that Opera interview!!) have led her down this path. And just because she has yet to reflect and learn these important life lessons...doesn't mean we can't.

In this episode...we talk about:

1) Harry & Meghan's relationship timeline...the good, the bad & the uncomfortable

2) The Oprah Interview

3) Things we can take away from her public life...specifically...

4) When we share or talk about our problems...who are we sharing them with? A trusted confidant or anyone on social media who will listen

5) To what end? When sharing our grievances are we trying to solve problems....oooooorr........ get attention, validation, or cause contention

6) Does our sharing, or oversharing, solve our problem? Do we vent and let it go or actively try to fix it....or do we just commiserate with whoever will listen

7) De we remember to look at what you have, make the most of it and be grateful...because that is KEY to a life of joy

8) Go & Do Challenge...Pick something that has been bothering us...and decide to FIX IT or LET IT GO

9) Happy Thought...there has never been a more free, prosperous, safe, healthy and convenient time to live in the history of the world...enjoy it!

What do we do when we are not getting answers to our prayers? Specifically revelations or answers regarding doctrinal or organization issues resulting in a possible FAITH CRISIS? In my personal experience, these three things have helped.

In this episode we talk about:

1) Repent daily....every day, the big, the small and everything in between...just repent

2) Keeping the commandments with more diligence & precision will allow the Holy Ghost to be our constant companion

3) This takes humility to accept....sometimes we aren’t ready for the answer. We're not. But this reveals how loving and merciful the Lord is....He will not reveal things to us when He knows we will not understand

4) Shelf Analogy

5) Milk Before Meat

6) Go & Do Challenge: -Pick 1 item related to each shelf & work on it over the next few days; -take something out of shelf one, remember a very spiritual experience, prayer answered, principle that you know to be true, something to remind you of God’s presence & goodness -Shelf 2, what are you working on, can you expand on what you just pulled, just make sure you are studying something -Shelf 3, ask yourself, is there anything you need to put up there for awhile.

7) Happy Thought Mysteries of God are spiritual truths known only by revelation. God reveals His mysteries to those who are obedient to the gospel. Some of God’s mysteries are yet to be revealed. D&C 63.. 23 But unto him that keepeth my commandments I will give the mysteries of my kingdom, -he doesn’t say this lightly

This is part 4 in a 4-part series.

Have you heard the Right accuse the Left of being Marxist? Communist? Did this concern you, confuse you or make you laugh in disbelief? Well I'm here to prove to you in not one, not two, but FOUR episodes that the Left...unbeknownst to most...is in fact peddling Marxism...

In this episode...we talk about:

1) To be learned is good as long as we hearken unto the counsels of God (2 Nephi 9:29), mankind tends to exercise unrighteous dominion as soon as we get a little authority (D&C 121:39)

2) The framers understood this...they had just lived through it...so through trial & error as well as very intense debate, they wrote The Constitution with a Bill of Rights establishing a small federal government w/checks & balances

3) The Progressive Era...well intentioned & uniformed...sought to grow government to help society

4) Roosevelt grew the federal government, painting progressives as good guys & big business as bad

5) Wilson grew government painting expert government agencies as good guys & The Constitution as bad, as well planting the seeds for the secret 4th branch

6) The Stock Market Crash...FDR puts the federal government on steroids trying to "help" but this only prolonged the problem, also FDR integrates communist & socialist parties in America to the Democrat party

7) Sowell teaches us government intervention really does not help, in fact makes things much worse

8) In Europe, communists & Marxists regroup in their mission to revolutionize society...giving us The Frankfurt School where they developed Critical Theory to analyze culture to identify oppression & free the 'have nots' from the 'haves'

9) Freud focuses on sex while Gramsci focuses on redefining culture from the inside out, using socialism as "....the religion that must overwhelm Christianity..."

10) Frankfurt School members move to America & find homes at universities

11) Marcuse fathers The New Left who believe; the 'have nots' who will bring revolution to America are not the working class rather those on the margins of society, intolerance is key to tolerance & we're all just dogs in heat...to think otherwise is oppressive

12) Neo-Marxism/Cultural Marxism piggybacks on other movements bringing us social justice & The Radical 60s

13) Black Liberation Theology, M. Johnson & how communists "exploit' actual grievances of black Americans to use them for their gain

14) Critical Race Theory doesn't teach racial history...it teaches that whites are always bad & minorities are always good....."just like Marx saw every social problem in world from economic class disparity...The Critical Race Theorist sees race everywhere. It lies at the root of all social disorders”

15) Intersectionality is Oppression Olympics & DEI is indoctrination to keep 'haves' shamed & submissive

16) Feminist Theory...Freidan duped American women & Beauvoir definitely did not represent American women...and who suffers from this....CHILDREN!

17) Sexual Theory...Reich teaches that traditional family structures are oppressive & true political revolution is possible only after sexual repression is overthrown

18) The Sexual Revolution...Young people believe they can seperate sex from family, responsibility, tradition or religion...leading us to today where 1 in 4 kids in America is raised w/out a father in the home

19) Gender Theory...Money teaches that gender is a social construct, there are different types of pedophilia & not all are bad, performs sex-reassignment surgery on a toddler

20) Queer Theory...not restricted to gays...but describes anyone who feels marginalized because of their sexual practices. Drag queens lead charge to destabilize gender norms & pedos are just another victim class

21) These radicals from the 60s grew-up, infiltrated all aspects of society, led charge to redefine American culture...and hate America

22) Go & Do Challenge...Pick 1 to make your home a sanctuary from the world & increase the spirit

23) Happy Thought...The Book of Mormon was written for our day...ALL aspects of our day; the spiritual, familial, cultural AND political.
