Here’s your daily dose of what matters most!
When people choose to speak of Christ in ordinary conversations, faith stops being something reserved for church meetings and becomes part of daily life. As disciples bring His name into their words, their joy in Him grows and others begin to see where hope, forgiveness, and direction can truly be found.
Scripture
“And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins.”—2 Nephi 25:26
Quote
“You and I speak of Jesus Christ, but maybe we can do a little better. If the world is going to speak less of Him, who is going to speak more of Him? We are! Along with other devoted Christians!”—Neil L. Andersen, “We Talk of Christ”

Living the Principle: Speak of Christ
- Work the name of Jesus Christ naturally into conversations by sharing a short experience, a scripture, or a reason personal faith matters when discussions turn to hope, forgiveness, or purpose. This simple habit keeps Him at the center of what is said and helps others see where that faith comes from.
- Place a verse about Christ where it will be seen during normal routines—on a desk, in a car, or beside a phone—and pause to read it aloud before leaving the space. Speaking the words helps turn scripture from something read silently into something openly spoken and remembered.
- When someone expresses guilt, discouragement, or the need for a fresh start, point them toward the Savior by mentioning His power to forgive and change lives. A brief reminder about Christ’s mercy can redirect the conversation toward the true source of healing and hope.
