Treasures New and Old
Called to LightTreasures New and Old is taken from Matthew 13:52: “Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is a householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.” You can expect to find some well-known truths and doctrines of the faith as well as some new things that you might have not thought about or did not understand.

This section of our website tries to provide that service.
