‘She really made a choice’: What Tom Christofferson learned about love through watching his mother endure health problems
LDS Living
- Members of the Church first met Tom Christofferson when he wrote his first book, That We May Be One: A Gay Mormon’s Perspective on Faith & Family . The book told the story of how the love of those around him, including his immediate family, brought him back to the gospel of Jesus Christ after spending two decades away from the Church. In his new book, A Better Heart , Christofferson explores Christlike love in greater depth, but in both books there is one standout character: his mother.

Lindsey Williams
- Editor's note: Our bi-weekly Friday column, “ Found in the footnotes ,” explores some of the footnotes from remarks given by General Authorities and General Officers of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I logged into Zoom for a virtual tour of Carthage Jail in late September.

Shortly thereafter, I booked virtual tours at several places for myself. I jokingly named it my “Virtual Vacation.” When I joined...
