The Gospel: An Anchor in a Time of Change

various Christmnas images

In 2020 we have endured natural disasters and a worldwide pandemic. We have studied the Book of Mormon through Come, Follow Me with our brothers and sisters near and far. We have united across the globe in fasting and in faith.

In a changing world, we can anchor our souls to our Savior, Jesus Christ, and His restored gospel. We hope these and other articles in this issue will help you feel the Christmas spirit, the Lord’s Spirit:

  • Elder D. Todd Christofferson teaches why we need a Savior (see page 12).

  • In “Sharing the Savior’s Light at Christmas,” we suggest some ideas for ministering at Christmastime (see page 8).

  • Jakob Jones writes about four gifts we can give the Lord in order to invite the gift of the Holy Ghost into our lives (see page 28).

  • Earlier this year, the First Presidency approved the publication of three new Church magazines, starting next month: one for adults, one for youth, and one for children. These magazines will be available in dozens of languages, bringing the gospel to Latter-day Saints around the world. Through these new magazines, we will continue to hear the Lord’s voice through His servants and connect with each other as members of a global Church. (Learn more on page 6.)

Merry Christmas from the Liahona staff
