Laura Tevaga
Brigham Young University–Hawaii Advancement Vice President
Advancement Vice President Laura Tevaga shares how to gain confidence in the presence of God.

Her invitation to students: don’t wait. Begin today by praying, serving, forgiving, and loving more fully so you can stand before God with confidence. “One of the greatest truths we can ever grasp is that God’s love is personal, infinite, and unwavering.” Laura Tevaga
