Joseph

Have you ever wondered how people can say that they love the prophet Joseph when they've never even met him? He did live over 200 years ago at a time when the world looked quite different from what we see out our windows. Joseph, a new Deseret Bookshelf Plus Original hosted by beloved historian and writer Heidi Swinton, invites us on a personal journey across time and continents to discover what it looks like to "know brother Joseph" today. With a charming mix of storytelling, music, historical context, and personal experience from Heidi and her friends (some you'll recognize and some who will be new to you) this 7-episode podcast series offers listeners the chance to explore their relationship with Joseph and how that relationship can ultimately lead us closer to Christ.

The church needs you

Editor's note: Clayton Christensen is the Robert and Jane Cizik Professor of Business Administration at the Harvard Business School and a member of the Deseret News' Editorial Advisory Board. The Deseret News recently asked Christensen, a Salt Lake City native and member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, to share this experience. For better or worse, the very language that we use when describing a situation affects how we understand the situation and hence guides our behavior.
