New book released from President Eyring: 'Choose Higher Ground'
MR says: Sounds like a must read. Life is supposed to be an upward climb. That’s one lesson that President Henry B. Eyring, first counselor in the LDS Church’s First Presidency, learned from his mother as a young man. “If you are on the right path, it will always be uphill,” she told...
Mormon with rare skin disease paints, sings and reachs out to others
MR says: Wow. A seriously incredible woman. It puts things in perspective to see how happily people live and serve despite extreme trials. Imagine being a child with a condition where you are as fragile as a butterfly's wings. On the outside, physical wounds prevent you from normal daily activities enjoyed...
2 Mormon moms in international video blog competition
MR says: Go vote for your favorite video blog (whether it's one of these Mormon moms or not)! Mothers who blog have been the focus of news articles for years, but one type of online journaling that hasn't been discussed as much is the world of video bloggers, specifically the moms who produce these video...
In Book of Mormon musical, a Mormon finds something to love
MR says: A very good review and valuable perspective. I appreciated both the error and truth of the play that she pointed out near the end of the review. Last Thursday night I zipped up my going-out boots and drove through fat snowflakes to the Fox theater. The touring production of the 2011...

Christensen’s career in filmmaking evidently started with his favorite food. “I was probably sitting on the...
Trip to Hill Cumorah influenced 'Book of Mormon' Musical
MR says: The creators of the musical visited the Hill Cumorah Pageant before writing the show. This article actually has some great commentary from a local stake president. My favorite (pertaining to the show poking fun at missionaries): "Almost with exception, the first thing [missionaries] say is ‘I love those people [I served].’ . . . I don’t mind people having fun, even at our expense, but I wish they knew more about that part of it.”
Mormon father-son team sets out to win third leg of 'The Amazing Race' with one on crutches
MR says: How exciting! Did you know this reality show had a Mormon duo this season? Salt Lake father-son team Dave and Connor O’Leary successfully raced through airports, a river in a jet boat, muddy trails on ATVs and navigating winding roads in New Zealand while Dave was on crutches with a leg injury in...

Hollywood powerbrokers bring Bible to life (+video)
MR says: This looks to be a really interesting depiction of Christ's life as portrayed in the Bible. For actress Roma Downey and producer Mark Burnett, all roads led to Morocco. During their respective careers, the wife-and-husband duo has been successful by any objective measure: Downey is best known as...

LDS family makes Owl City lip dub music video
