We are spotlighting Brother Brad Wilcox this week! Brother Wilcox loves seeing students as they learn to take their study gospel study more seriously. He loves to see them learn at a deeper level and feel the satisfaction that brings. He also loves when people come up to him and say, “You taught me when I was a teenager at EFY,” and now they are dropping off their kids at FSY. Similarly, he loves it when students come up to him and say, “You taught my mom and dad when they were at BYU.” A fun fact about Brother Wilcox is that he and his friend Steven Kapp Perry once sang the national anthem at a Chicago Cubs game with President Ronald Reagan in attendance.

Do you ever not feel like praying? Brigham Young has taught that when "you don't feel like praying, pray until you do!" Satan tries to make us feel inadequate or unworthy to keep us from praying. When you pray, you can ask God for a greater desire to do so!

It's finally here! "Greater Love Hath No Man" is available at Deseret Book, Amazon, and wherever Latter-day Saint books are sold! This volume expands upon his earlier book "God So Loved the World" in the same user-friendly format, organizing the chapters according to the traditional days of Holy Week with expanded discussion and additional materials. After discussing the scriptural accounts for each day of Holy Week, the chapters then summarize how these scriptural events have been celebrated through the centuries in different Christian traditions before sharing suggestions on how Latter-day Saints can both study the texts and commemorate the events in their own families.

Next we're spotlighting Brother Sweat! He loves being able to explore the great truths of the Restoration with wonderful students and colleagues in an effort to develop mature and deep faith. And there’s no better place than BYU to do that! He's most proud of his students who choose lives of goodness and loyal, consecrated faith, despite the challenges and temptations of life. If he can contribute to that at all, through his teaching or writing or painting, that’s what he cares about most. A fun fact about Brother Sweat is that he can take any of his students in a three-point contest. And he loves Coke. In fact, he says he will beat them while drinking a Coke!
