You’ve probably noticed an increase of Latter-day Saint influencers online lately. You may have even wanted to join us (please do)! I believe this is happening just as Spencer W. Kimball prophesied when he said that “much of the major growth that is coming to the Church in the last days will come because many of the good women of the world … will be drawn to the Church in large numbers. This will happen to the degree that the women of the Church reflect righteousness and articulateness in their lives and to the degree that the women of the Church are seen as distinct and different—in happy ways—from the women of the world.”
But it can be really tricky when discerning those who are sharing truth, and those that are sharing the philosophies of men mingled with scripture. So, I thought I would share some of my favorites. But just remember to never take spiritual counsel from any influencer. They can give good tips, advice, and share opinions, but they do not have the authority to do any more than that. Only God does. With that being said, here are my favorite Latter-day Saint influencers.
In no particular order:
Russell M. Nelson (gotta follow the prophet!)
All the other Church leaders!
If I’m forgetting you, please let me know! I would love to add more truth-proclaiming influencers to this list!
And if you feel like you might want to be on this list, remember what President Nelson said: “Do you realize the breadth and scope of your influence when you speak those things that come to your heart and mind as directed by the Spirit?” and “We need you to speak up and speak out.”
