Welcome to Inklings.

I am Emily Bell Freeman, and I'm so excited to welcome you to a space where you and I get to experience a hint of something more together.

This is a community where we lean into discussions that will help us obtain a bedrock understanding of the doctrines of Christ.

Not overnight, but every day better.

Strength gathered over time. There is a place for you here. Looking forward to spending this

semester with you as we embark on a journey focused on becoming his.

Good thing, everyone.

Happy Thursday.

Welcome to Inklings.

I'm so excited for today.

We're having such a good conversation today. A happy conversation. So I'm really excited about that. Let me tell you where we're going to be. We're going to be in Second

Chronicles 30, and you might have never read this chapter in your life because we don't really ever talk about it but there's

just such a great lesson here so second chronicles 30 we're going to start there um we're in

elder uckdorf's talk on joy um a higher joy is the name of the talk. So your Old Testament you want and then your general

conference notes you're going to want a higher joy and we're going to be talking about

mostly how to actually find joy. That's the thought that's on my mind right now,

is how do we actually find joy. And particularly if you're in moments where life just isn't

immediately joyful when you wake up. So that's kind of where our thoughts are going to be

is we're going to just start there. And my catch up is the same catch up. All three babies are doing

so good. We're on our fourth round of chemo with Greg. This has been the hardest

one so far for sure. And I was thinking to myself last night, has anyone ever felt like

this is such a weird thing to say, but it is so true about our life right now.
