What Brought This Woman Closer to the Savior After Her Mother's Unexpected Death
LDS Living Staff
- Another missed call notification flashed across Brooke's cell phone. In the span of just a few minutes, Brooke's mother had tried to reach her multiple times, calling incessantly. But there was little Brooke, one of three members of the singing group Mercy River, could do. She was in a conference call with the two other members of Mercy River, Soni and Whitney, discussing their upcoming tours. Besides, Brooke says on an episode of the This Is the Gospel podcast, it wasn't unusual for her mother to call and call and call until someone picked up. "So I finally texted her and...
How a Small Chapel in a Run-Down Neighborhood Helped Open Missionary Work in a Country Half a World Away
Elder John H. Groberg, excerpted from "Fire of Faith"
- The following is an excerpt from Elder John H. Groberg’s book Fire of Faith , which details his experiences as he served as a mission president and later as a general authority. For several years we had tried to get permission for our missionaries to come into the New Hebrides (now named Vanuatu). We had a few members from Tonga, Samoa, New Zealand, and Australia living there. Our meetings with the government officials about allowing our missionaries in the country were fruitless. At that time the New Hebrides was jointly run by France and Britain. It was necessary that both sides...

He turns the traditionally somber meditation "Where Can I Turn for Peace?" into a surprisingly joyful celebration, and his treatment of classic hymns like "I Need Thee Every Hour" and "God Be with You Till We Meet Again" are unforgettable beautiful exchanges between two incredibly talented pianists.

The Surprising Way This Latter-day Saint Responded to the Man Who Stole from a Christmas Service Project
Jason F. Wright
- The following story is being shared in celebration of the release of the new Christmas Jars movie. It was originally published in 2015. I have no idea where the time went.

4 Tips to Help You Focus During the Sacrament
LDS Living Staff
- The following article originally ran on LDS Living in September 2015. When Jesus visited the Americas after His death, He told the people this: "And it shall be a testimony unto the Father that ye do always remember me" (3 Nephi 18:7). But obviously it’s a real struggle to remember Christ as much as He would like. There is, however, one set-aside event where our only goal is to think about Christ and His sacrifice for us: sacrament meeting. Picture the following scene in your mind: The sacrament begins. You bow your head for the prayer and a crick in your neck...
