Rhett Rogers<p>This was a really good read and really resonated with me. I hope the church can learn from some of the mistakes it has made in properly teaching how to overcome pornography and how to remove the shame around it. </p><p>And seriously why are we so concerned about sex in movies and tv when violence and murder (which according to the BoM) is the greater sin?</p><p><a href="https://exponentii.org/blog/sex-porn-men-and-general-authorities/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">exponentii.org/blog/sex-porn-m</span><span class="invisible">en-and-general-authorities/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/ChurchOfJesusChrist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChurchOfJesusChrist</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/Pornography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pornography</span></a></p>

Rhett Rogers<p>“…While perseverance and endurance are often virtuous and inspiring, they aren’t universally the right choice. We should also learn from those who quit wisely. We should learn the importance of perseverance from the pioneers, but we should also learn when and where to apply grit to our advantage.”</p><p>A very interesting read that puts things in perspective. </p><p><a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/WheatAndTears" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WheatAndTears</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/Mormon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mormon</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/Pioneers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pioneers</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/ChurchOfJesusChrist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChurchOfJesusChrist</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://wheatandtares.org/2023/10/12/hidden-lessons-from-pioneers-poker-players-and-mountaineers/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">wheatandtares.org/2023/10/12/h</span><span class="invisible">idden-lessons-from-pioneers-poker-players-and-mountaineers/</span></a></p>

Rhett Rogers<p>I love the idea that if we are not humble we will probably humiliated. When we are prideful and defensive we are unable to learn and we are prone to err.</p><p><a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/GeneralConference" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GeneralConference</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/LDSConf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LDSConf</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/ChurchOfJesusChrist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChurchOfJesusChrist</span></a></p>

Rhett Rogers<p>I love his story about the archery merit badge and his son hitting the bullseye on the wrong target but getting the badge anyway.</p><p>Christ just needs us to try.

Rhett Rogers<p>I didn't get to do much during the Saturday Afternoon Session, but we have things calmed down enough to do the evening session. I'm looking forward to the speakers.</p><p><a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/GeneralConference" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GeneralConference</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/LDSConf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LDSConf</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/ChurchOfJesusChrist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChurchOfJesusChrist</span></a></p>
Dan Jones<p>Have they started letting teenagers join the Tabernacle Choir?

Rhett Rogers<p>And that is a wrap for the Saturday morning session. I'm surprised I got what I did out of it with all of the things driving my anxiety this morning. </p><p>But I got to hear some good things. And I like sharing my thoughts around it. </p><p>I think I should get our downstairs TV hooked up between sessions 😜</p><p><a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/GeneralConference" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GeneralConference</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/LDSConf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LDSConf</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/ChurchOfJesusChrist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChurchOfJesusChrist</span></a></p>
Rhett Rogers<p>I do think this is something that is misunderstood about the Church's ordinances for the dead.</p><p>It is something optional for those souls. It does not immediately make them members of our church. It gives them the option to become members.</p><p><a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/GeneralConference" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GeneralConference</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/LDSConf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LDSConf</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/ChurchOfJesusChrist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChurchOfJesusChrist</span></a></p>
Rhett Rogers<p>Knowing something vs becoming something.</p><p>It is not a matter of what we do in this life, but who we are becoming.</p><p><a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/GeneralConference" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GeneralConference</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/LDSConf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LDSConf</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/ChurchOfJesusChrist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChurchOfJesusChrist</span></a></p>
Rhett Rogers<p>Eternal progression is the goal of this life and eternity. From what I understand it is a mindset of eternal growth as we come to be more and more like <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/JesusChrist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JesusChrist</span></a></p><p><a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/GeneralConference" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GeneralConference</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/LDSConf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LDSConf</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/ChurchOfJesusChrist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChurchOfJesusChrist</span></a></p>

Rhett Rogers<p>It is good to hear some of the things the church is doing to help others. I wish I could do more to serve those around me. Since we just moved, we are pretty unfamiliar with things around here and we do not have any friends yet. Hopefully we can change that quickly and start building friendships.</p><p><a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/GeneralConference" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GeneralConference</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/LDSConf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LDSConf</span></a> <a href="https://rogersfam.co/tags/ChurchOfJesusChrist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChurchOfJesusChrist</span></a></p>
Rhett Rogers<p>The three oldest kids are attempting to play Conference Bingo while we watch conference.
