Danielle B. Wagner
- We hear stories of the apostles' childhoods nearly every general conference. Common sense tells us that before they were leaders of the Church, they were little kids who ran and played, dreamed and made mistakes, joked and scraped their knees—just like all of us. But, sometimes that reality is hard to imagine. We've learned that before becoming judges, professors, pilots, and incredible priesthood leaders, President Dallin H. Oaks helped support his widowed mother and younger siblings after his father died of tuberculosis and President Dieter F. Uchtdorf managed to finally catch the eye of a certain lovely woman—now his wife Harriet—by...
What Latter-day Saints Should Know About Christopher Columbus and the Restoration
Clark B. Hinckley, excerpted from "Christopher Columbus: A Man Among the Gentiles"
- At noon on the Ides of March, 1493, a small wooden ship rode the rising tide up the Río Tinto and into the harbor of Palos, Spain. She wasn’t much of a ship—her deck was only about 55 feet long. She was weathered but solidly built and appeared to be newly caulked. She was named the Santa Clara, but was usually called the Niña after her owner, Juan Niño of Moguer. The Niña had last been seen in Palos on August 3, 1492, sailing down the ebb tide with two other ships, the Santa María and the Pinta as part of...

"Is There No Blessing for Me?" The Incredible Conversion and Life of Jane Elizabeth Manning James
Katie Lambert
- Shuffling through dirt and mud, stumbling over cold stones that rubbed their skin raw, Jane Elizabeth Manning James and her family inched toward Nauvoo, Illinois, barefoot.

That was the very reason James and her six family members were walking 800 miles to Nauvoo in late fall with shoes that had long since worn to useless strips. While journeying with Charles Wesley Wandell, the missionary who had baptized James in...
