A Come Follow Me Podcast. We are your host, Kristen Walker Smith and Kelly Black. Hey, friends, it's Kristen. Grab your scriptures and let's dive into Isaiah 5 verse 20. Now in my scriptures next to this verse, I wrote and bold letters, our days. As we read this verse, I want you to think of how you can see the truth of this prophecy in modern times. Woe unto them that call evil good and good evil, that put darkness for light and light for darkness,

1:03that put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. Do you see the truth of that in the world around you? Whenever I spend time on social media, I am disturbed by the popularity and influence of people who prioritize sin over righteousness, whose standards are often in direct opposition to God's laws. Meanwhile, reporters and online creators frequently criticize those bold enough to proclaim God's eternal truth. The crowd might follow what's popular rather than right, but God asks us to keep our spiritual eyes wide open. We need to be keenly aware of what is good and evil and then seek out only the good. No matter how attractive wickedness seems, it will never be right. So the takeaway of the day in five words or less is, evil will never be good. Thanks so much for being here today and for coming closer to Christ with me, one minute at a time. Hey, parents, have you broached the topic of Joseph Smith's plural marriages yet with your kids
