  Today, I want to share something personal—an experience that has shaped my faith and perspective. Recently, I decided to read the Book of Mormon chronologically. I just finished the Book of Ether, which is the second-to-last book in the Book of Mormon. This book, like many testaments of Jesus Christ, explores themes of faith, repentance, and the blessings that come from acting in faith. It also warns of the consequences that come when we forget about Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. Reading Ether prompted me to reflect deeply on my own journey.

My name is Taylor Morgan Turley, and I am thrilled to relaunch this blog with renewed purpose and energy. If you’ve been here before, you might notice things look a little different. That’s because I’ve decided to start fresh, and I’m excited to share why.  Why the Fresh Start? In the past, I leaned heavily on AI to not only help with my writing but sometimes, take over. While AI is an incredible tool (and I’m not here to knock it!), I found myself losing the drive to push my own creative boundaries—both as a writer and as a homemaker.
