Here’s your daily dose of what matters most!

Building a Spirit-filled home begins with daily prayer, scripture study, and acts of love that welcome the Holy Ghost. By fostering kindness, forgiveness, and faith, we create an uplifting atmosphere that strengthens our families and draws us closer to God.

Scripture

“And it came to pass that there was no contention in the land, because of the love of God which did dwell in the hearts of the people.”—4 Nephi 1:15

Quote

“You will find some of your greatest joys in your efforts to make your home a place of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and a place that is permeated with love.”—Henry B. Eyring

Living the Principle: Building a Spirit-Filled Home

  • Establish a Family Worship Routine: Set aside a consistent time each day for family prayer and scripture study, making it a priority that everyone participates.
  • Create a Media-Free Zone: Designate a room or space in your home as a sacred, distraction-free place for spiritual reflection, uplifting conversations, or quiet moments with God.
  • Show Gratitude Daily: Share one specific thing you’re grateful for with your family members during meals or bedtime, encouraging everyone to recognize God’s blessings.
