INTRODUCTION: The pattern followed in Moses 5 is the pattern still followed by Lucifer and his fallen angels. Whenever truth is taught or righteousness appears, Lucifer will make an effort to counteract the effects of such activity. After Adam and Eve were taught the fundamentals of the atonement, they “blessed the name of God, and they made all things known unto their sons and their daughters” (Moses 5:12).

Acts 6-9

When I got out my camera, a Mormon security guard made it clear that he didn’t like what I was doing. “Excuse me sir,” he said. “Please don’t feed the trolls.” The “trolls” were the anti-Mormon protesters carrying anti-Mormon signs and yelling anti-Mormon slurs—some of them using bullhorns. They amass at dusk on the seven nights in July when the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints puts on its annual Hill Cumorah Pageant. It’s here, on a tree-lined hill that rises above the flat farmland of western New York state, that the founder of Mormonism, Joseph Smith, claimed to have unearthed metal plates from which he translated the Book of Mormon. And for each of the last 75 years—except during World War II—Mormons have staged an elaborate production dramatizing the Book of Mormon’s sacred history of a Pre-Columbian Christian civilization.

When world-renowned vocalist Sissel, best known for her stunning vocals in Titanic, stepped on the Conference Center stage for the 2019 Pioneer Day concert, her ethereal performance with the Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra on Temple Square could be linked back to the efforts of one man: Erlend D. Peterson.

I popped on Facebook one morning last week, and was excited to see that I had some notifications and a couple of messages. The first item I clicked on was an invitation to a friend’s daughter’s mission farewell. Sitting alone, I said, “Aw.” I’ve never met my friend’s daughter, so I was even more touched by the invite.

Latter-day Saints have often taken the field for the most-anticipated football event of the year, and the 55th Super Bowl on Sunday, February 7, will be no exception. Here’s a look at four Latter-day Saint stories connected to this year’s Super Bowl between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

After what seemed to be the longest day ever, I found myself on my knees, head in hands, collapsed on the bedroom floor. I was so overwhelmed with work, school, family and church responsibilities that I felt almost numb. It had been six months since I had returned from a mission and the weight of adjusting home still felt heavy.

On Friday, the general presidents of all the women-led organizations in the Church met for a historic Sister-to-Sister event at BYU Women's Conference.

In Tad R. Callister’s new book, A Case for the Book of Mormon, the former Sunday School general president and beloved Latter-day Saint author shares not only the evidence for the Book of Mormon but he also lays out arguments made by those who oppose the book. For readers, this may come as a surprise from a book that intends to build a case supporting the veracity of the Book of Mormon as it may even be the first time some readers have heard certain arguments against the book but during his conversation with All In host Morgan Jones, Callister explained why stating the case of opposition was necessary before making his own case in defense of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon.
