You may have thought you knew everything there is to know about the jiggly, sweet treat known as Jell-O.

Dear Dave,

“Whenever I hear the [Primary] music it really fills me with the spirit and as a mom I wanted to teach my kids how to feel the Spirit,” Natasha Johnson said. Now she and her husband have found a way to spread that Spirit and the fun of Primary music to other children through their new app.

Recently, the Church released a map with all of the 150 temples throughout the world. While the map shows a heavy concentration of temples in the United States and Canada, it's apparent that these temples are quickly spreading across the world as the Church grows.

You’ve probably seen the videos — regular people doing regular things, finishing with the token quote, “and I’m a Mormon.”

An online event organized by Sister Katie Ashcraft is spreading the message of the Book of Mormon. Last week's event, #SearchtheBook, had many participants, including Paul Cardall, and tomorrow, June 24th, #LivetheBook will go into full swing.

The First Presidency announced in a letter on Thursday that the Church will no longer charter Varsity and Venture Scouting programs and released the new Church program for young men ages 14–18.

We have been thinking a lot about this question recently. Last week, we brought up a similar debate (watching the Super Bowl and/or having a family party on Sunday), and we also ran a story about two LDS cheerleaders who, like many other LDS youth, chose not to compete on Sunday. Both stories generated passionate response, which made us realize how varied the opinions are on the topic of appropriate Sunday activities. So we wondered: how do you and your family handle extracurricular activities on Sunday? Most families have to face the question of Sunday competition and/or recitals at some point. Sports, music, dance, debate, and speech competitions all have the possibility to be held on Sunday. Some families have hard and fast rules for the children that no Sunday competition is allowed. Others leave the choice up to the children, sometimes while encouraging them one way or the other.

Knowing what to talk about during those awkward first few minutes on a date can be challenging. One of the best ways to overcome this awkwardness is to develop a few predetermined questions you can use to break the tension of the moment. Before asking or answering any questions, decide in advance to spend most of your conversational energies learning about the other person. When you ask the other person questions about him or herself, you allow them to speak about something they totally understand and it takes the conversation from the awkward question and answer level to a more comfortable storytelling format for both of you. This is especially true if you tell them a little bit about yourself after they have answered your questions.

It’s been a great month for Jewish-LDS relations in Los Angeles. Readers of this blog know of my firm belief that Mormons have a great deal to say to Jews, and vice versa. Judging from the turnout at three recent events, many other Mormons and Jews feel the same way. Last Sunday Jewish and Mormon leaders gathered at an LDS chapel in order to hear an inspired presentation on Mormons and the Holy Land given by Joe and Marilyn Bentley, who recently returned from 18 months of service as the Directors of Hosting and Outreach at the BYU Center in Jerusalem. The Bentleys have a great love for Israel and the Jewish people, and clearly enjoyed sharing interesting details of their assignment and of LDS involvement in the Holy Land for over 160 years.
