Your friend just watched ‘Murder Among the Mormons’ and has questions; historian Richard Turley is here to help
LDS Living
- Richard Turley was brought in to supervise the Church History Department in 1986. At the time, the Church was heavily involved in the investigation of a forger by the name of Mark Hofmann. Turley had graduated from Brigham Young University’s J. Reuben Clark Law School and his legal training proved to be effective in guiding the department through that period of the Church’s history. In 1992, Turley wrote a book, Victims: The LDS Church and the Mark Hofmann Case , and he was recently interviewed for a Netflix documentary on Hofmann, Murder Among the Mormons .

Taylor Swift just replied to David Archuleta’s Twitter video. You are going to want to see why
Emily Abel
- David Archuleta’s hit song “Crush” came out back in 2008, but yesterday it got the brilliant mash-up we didn’t know we wanted. “When Crush turns into a Love Story. . .” Archuleta posted on Twitter with a video of him singing the chorus of “Crush” to popstar Taylor Swift’s own 2008-hit: “Love Story.” Simply based on how well the songs complement each other, we’re surprised no one figured this out sooner. When a Crush turns into a Love Story... 🎶 Of course with #LoveStoryTaylorsVersion .

Richard E. Turley Jr.: How I came to write ‘In the Hands of the Lord: The Life of Dallin H. Oaks’
Richard E. Turley Jr.
- Youth often choose prominent persons as role models, never really expecting to meet them. I chose such a role model when I was in my teens. His name was Dallin H. Oaks. I turned 15 in 1971, the year he became president of Brigham Young University. Like many active Latter-day Saint youth living outside Utah, I longed to feel a connection with others of my faith who wanted to live the Church’s standards. That made me want to attend BYU, even though my academic record qualified me for attending better-known universities. Attending a summer conference at BYU in 1971 only increased...
Led to the Savior: How Sister Aburto found healing from both sides of the veil after tragedy
Lindsey Williams
- Editor's note: This article is the cover story of the March/April 2021 issue of LDS Living magazine. To the average person, the date of October 15, 1989, might not hold much significance. But for Sister Reyna I. Aburto, this day changed her life forever. And it all started with the moment she chose to reach for the Savior. Living in San Francisco, California, 26-year-old Reyna had just been through a painful final separation from her first husband and was doing the best she could to provide for herself and for her 3-year-old son, Xavier. Though her days were full and busy,...
OCD, God, and me: One woman's experience with scrupulosity
Whitney Vogrinec, Contributor
- Growing up, my family held family home evenings (FHE) that felt more like listening to a general conference talk than the usual games and short lessons I saw in friends’ homes. And while I am now grateful that those lessons taught me the principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ, I also recognize that as a young girl, I understood those things as a child. 1 Over time, however, my mind morphed the principles I’d learned in FHE to crushing ideals I could never reach. I kept on as best I could, until two years ago when I knew going on...
Watch: Sister Craven and Brother Wilcox answer the question, ‘Is it bad to participate in the Church out of a sense of duty?’
LDS Living
- Colby is a teenager approaching adulthood and he has a question: Is it bad to participate in the Church out of a sense of duty? “It seems like there’s a set plan that we’re supposed to follow: Mission, BYU . . ., marriage, and children, in that order. It just seems like a wall of expectations that you’re supposed to climb and if you don’t quite measure up to that then there’s something wrong with you or you’re not as strong in your testimony as you should be,” Colby explains. His question is a part of the Real Questions series ....
