Book of Mormon Lesson 22: "Have Ye Received His Image in Your Countenances?"
Mormon Life says: This discourse by Alma is like a pair of spiritual contact lenses. Looking through it we see the atonement of Jesus Christ more clearly than we have seen it before.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK: Like the Bible, [The Book of Mormon] is a volume of holy writ that speaks forth the mind and will of the Almighty. Like the Bible, it invites men to forsake the world and live as...
Family Home Avenging
Mormon Life says: This dad's likening of Book of Mormon prophets to the Avengers is kind of funny. We liked it.
Last night I finally took the entire family to see The Avengers. For FHE. What? Yes, once in a while we go crazy on Monday night. It can't all be profound teaching and testimonies. It was also nice...
My husband Alex Boye receives worldwide feedback from Book of Mormon Challenge
My husband Alex Boye gets to sing on the beautiful red cliffs of St. George with the Piano Guys.

You know what I wipe.
Book of Mormon Lesson 21: "Alma ... Did Judge Righteous Judgments"
Mormon Life says: The need for good government is perhaps greater today than any other time in history. We find wonderful examples of good leaders in Mosiah and Alma, who fearlessly stood for the right.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK: The Book of Mormon was written for us today. God is the author of that book. It is a record of a fallen people, compiled by inspired men for our blessing today....
Book of Mormon Lesson 20: "My Soul Is Pained No More"
Mormon Life says: Sometimes it's hard to forget our own mistakes - so it can be heard to believe God can fully forgive us if we repent. But Alma the Younger is a supreme example that God means it when He says "I will forgive."
QUOTE OF THE WEEK: “Like the Bible, [the Book of Mormon] is a volume of holy writ that speaks forth the mind and will of the Almighty. Like the Bible, it invites men to forsake the world and live as...
Teachings of George Albert Smith 10: The Scriptures, the Most Valuable Library in the World

Excerpt from "In Tune with the Music of Faith" by Elder Quentin L. Cook, April 2012 General Conference:Clearly, a dividing line between those who hear the music of faith and those who are tone-deaf...
Two writers use Book of Mormon to score political points
Mormon Life says: Recent comments by Martin Bashir and by a blogger in Salon magazine deserve rebuke for using the Book of Mormon to score political points.
It’s been an unexpected season of cherry-picking from the Book of Mormon, one with frustrating but hopeful consequences. Let’s pretend I said this: “I’m voting for Mitt Romney because he says...
Defending the Faith: A simple explanation works best for the Restoration
We left off last week with the notion that the Book of Mormon was plagiarized from a manuscript written by Solomon Spalding, who had died in 1816. Sidney Rigdon, so the story goes, stole the work from Spalding's family and, for whatever reason, used it to set the young farmer Joseph Smith up as a...
Book of Mormon Lesson 19: "None Could Deliver Them But the Lord"
Mormon Life says: The middle chapters of Mosiah are full of examples that God is perfectly reliable. We must know this for ourselves and trust in the promises of the Lord.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK: Few men on earth, either in or out of the Church, have caught the vision of what the Book of Mormon is all about. Few are they among men who know the part it has played and...
Book of Mormon Lesson #18: “God Himself Shall Redeem His People,” Mosiah 12-17
We are saddled with the task of sorting out the whole of Abinadi’s speech in a single lesson. That’s devastatingly difficult, particularly because Abinadi’s speech marks the—and I mean the—turning point in the history of the Nephites, and in about a dozen ways. We’ve got to look very carefully at...
SPONSORED: First scientific confirmation of Hebrew in Americas
A stone inscribed with ancient Hebrew script has been recovered by the Smithsonian Institution during an official archaeological dig. It recently underwent scientific analysis by American Petrographic Services of St. Paul, Minn., providing the first scientifically verified evidence of the Hebrew...
Mormon Parenting: King Benjamin's fantastic promises to parents
Would you like your kids to “never transgress the laws of God?” Would you like your children not to “fight and quarrel one with another?” What most parents wouldn’t give for those two promises! Well, in fact, they are two of the 10 promises listed by King Benjamin — promises that will be ours...
Book of Mormon Lesson 18: "God Himself . . . Shall Redeem His People"
Mormon Life says: Abinadi had "beautiful feet," as described by Isaiah, and he took his mission from the Lord very seriously. He was even willing to die for it.
Quote of the week: It is not sufficient that we should treasure the book of Mormon, nor that we testify that it is of God. We must know its truths, incorporate them into our lives, and share...
Book of Mormon Lesson #17: “A Seer Becometh a Great Benefit to His Fellow Beings,” Mosiah 7-11 (Sunday School)
Let’s say that this lesson serves as a kind of bridge between Benjamin and Abinadi. At least, that’s how I want to take it. There’s much to learn as we cross this bridge, but my principal aim will be to set up as well as possible Abinadi’s speech and circumstances. We’ll see why especially in the...
Prince Charles and the Book of Mormon
Mormon Life says: This is such a neat story! A quick, enjoyable read.
As a musician, I spend my days promoting my music and my videos, but nothing comes close to the feeling you get when you’re promoting your faith. I was sitting in Sunday School of The Church of...
