by Elder John Morgan Owens (preached on June 23, 2024) As Jesus is preparing for Calvary, He shares some last words of encouragement with His disciples: “Be of good cheer.” He does not tell them that the tribulations of the world will go away; on the contrary, He emphasizes that there WILL be problems in...
