Chad Truman recalls a specific moment on his mission where he had questions—not a faith crisis, just questions. He remembers hearing the words: “After your faith comes the witness.” Truman Brothers now sing songs of faith—songs that make a deliberate effort to represent a real faith journey. On this week’s episode, we discuss music’s ability to testify of Christ while acknowledging that our testimonies rarely grow linearly.

I was invited to lunch by a friend who wanted to introduce me to another friend, a man who had previously served as a mission president. This man had questions about how best to support elders and sisters from his mission who, during or after their missionary service, had shared with him that they were gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, intersex, asexual, or queer. As we talked about his missionaries, he asked about my life. At one point, he asked a question that startled me: “Do you think the Lord loves you as much as He does your brother?”

Allison Grant Dayton designed jewelry for the TV series Grey’s Anatomy and for companies like Athleta, Sundance Catalog, and Deseret Book. In 2015, she followed spiritual promptings to stay home and help her boys through the perils of high school. During these last precious years, Allison’s oldest brother, who was gay, took his own life. At the same time, her oldest son was starting his own process of coming out. Having watched her brother’s painful life and wanting much more for her amazing son, Allison started Lift and Love, an Instagram account, to reframe how we see our LGBTQ Latter-day Saints. In the two years since, Lift and Love has become a foundation supporting hundreds of LGBTQ Latter-day Saint Families, like her own. Allison and her husband, Kenn, have a daughter, two sons, and one son-in-law. They live in Salt Lake at the base of Mount Olympus with their dog, eight chickens, and open doors for friends and their large extended families.

Police are investigating the vandalism of an LDS property in Rexburg, Idaho, following the results of the Nov. 8 election.

PROVO -- Rumors of the sale of the Provo Post Office are almost as epic as Provo city's Google Fiber announcement, but now those rumors are being replaced with facts -- the LDS Church is in negotiations to buy the property. Although it goes without saying the LDS Church would be interested in purchasing the property, as it is contiguous to the Provo City Center Temple, none of the involved parties have ever said much about the church potentially purchasing the post office on 100 South.

Imagine an entire nation formed by a single prayer. That’s how the book of Ether begins, and it only picks up the pace from there. Barges built after the manner of Noah, stones touched by God, sea creatures threatening to dash boats to pieces—there’s no doubt Ether 1–5 is one fast-paced adventure. But it’s also chock-full of spiritual moments that teach us what it means to pray with faith and rely on the Lord, which are lessons we need today more than ever. So grab your scriptures and let’s dig into some of the most incredible moments in scripture.

There are countries cloaked in mystery. One such country is China: an enigma of thousands of years of emperors, Confucian philosophers, peasant farmers and scientific discoveries of wonder. The winds that blow across China whisper of the Silk Road and the Great Wall, of the terra cotta soldiers of Xian and the Palace of Tranquility in the Forbidden City, Peking.

Sy Snarr’s son, Zachary Snarr, was a senior in high school when he was shot and killed by a complete stranger. After 17 years in prison, Jorge Benvenuto, the man who killed Zachary, wrote a letter to tell the Snarr family that he was sorry for taking their 18-year-old son and brother’s life. What happened next captivated listeners of KSL’s “The Letter” podcast and, on this week’s episode of “All In,” we explore the power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ that is woven throughout the Snarr family's remarkable example of forgiveness.

The new movie highlighting the relationship between black convert Jane Manning James and Emma Smith, wife of the Prophet Joseph Smith, comes out in only a few short days (click here for more information on where you can watch it starting October 12, 2018!). The story truly lets you see these two women in Church history with all their flaws and strengths as you watch them grapple with the nuances of their faith in the gospel of Jesus Christ and their love for the martyred prophet during a fictionalized account of a night spent guarding Joseph Smith’s body after his death. While the night itself is not found in the history records, the emotions, stories of Jane and Emma’s previous interactions, people, and much of the dialogue comes straight from accounts left behind by those who lived early Church history, brought to life in the poetic, visual world of film. Here are a few of the true facts from Church history that you will find in Jane and Emma.
