Who Do I Choose—God or My Husband?

By Chelsea Homer

What a profound insight: "A simple yet powerful commandment [Jesus Christ] told His disciples, one that He repeated three times over, 'Love one another; as I have loved you' (John 13:34-35).

SPONSORED: Great New Book from Neal A. Maxwell Institute--Letters to a Young Mormon

By Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship

This book is unlike anything ever written for a young Latter-day Saint audience. Although author Adam S.

He composed this book as a series of letters meant for a young Mormon who is familiar with Mormon life but green in their faith. In simple but profound prose, Miller addresses the real beauty and real costs of trying to live a Mormon life in today’s world. Letters to a Young Mormon encourages Mormons young and old to live in a way that refuses to abandon either life or Mormonism. Most importantly, even while dispensing wisdom, Miller wonders alongside you.
