Should I Keep a Significant Other Waiting While on My Mission?

It must be the number one question I received whilst working at the MTC: “Brother Swain,” missionaries would timidly say as they asked me, “Do you think I should keep a girlfriend back home while I’m on a mission?” Normally by this point, other elders would huddle around, listening for the response.

Jewish rabbi: A Mormon walks into a temple...

Throughout the two decades I have spent in the rabbinate, I have never met a Mormon at an interfaith event. I do not recall a Mormon ever speaking at a synagogue. Recently I decided that doesn't make sense and that the burden is on me to do some outreach to rectify the situation.

Patriarchal Blessings: What to Do When Yours Isn't "Coming True"

By Jannalee Sandau

One of my favorite games to play with my friends as a child was “MASH.” We would write out MASH (mansion, apartment, shack, house) at the top of any scrap of paper we had, then in between giggles we would come up with the names of our future husbands (usually whoever we had crushes on at the time), how many kids we could possibly have (from 1 to 1,000), what careers we might end up with (anything from artist to astronaut), and other “important” facts about our lives that would then be determined by a chance elimination based on a random number.
