A talk about the Gift of the Holy Ghost, what it is, what it does, why we need it, and how to receive it. I am using my own words, not LDS jargon, and speaking from my own experiences, and things that have been revealed to me, and things that I have practiced in my own life.
We can read about somebody else’s revelations, but they don’t really become our revelations until we experience them for ourselves and can put them in your own words, so I hope and pray you can take something from what I say, and experience it in your own life and make it real for you by being able to express it in your own words.
I am speaking directly from the transcript I have written in order to emphasize certain words. I found so much material that I had to greatly condense it. Even condensing it, I had to break the talk down into three parts. The entire presentation is a little over 30 minutes long.
