You have all girls?
“You have four girls?!” said with such disdain almost anytime I go in public. I’m sure parents of all boys get it, too. And I know the person saying it is just making an attempt at friendly conversation with the frazzled stranger they see before them. I get it. And I always agreed with their disdain. Not that I don’t love my girls but you know what comes with them? DRAMA. And lots and lots of crying. I’m not kidding. It’s A LOT.

Top 15 Conference Hymns from the Last Decade
Twice a year, the 400-plus LDS Church meetinghouses in Utah County sit dormant on Sunday. The normally bustling buildings are traded for worshiping from the couch (or the Conference Center, for the lucky 21,200).

The Role of Religion in Modern Society
Drive through any city and you’ll see steeples or domes aspiring in the skyline. These houses of worship have a way of both standing out and fitting in. Businesses, town halls and residents join them as neighbors. Children walk by them on their way to school. Yet come Sunday morning, a different purpose emerges.

Like the religious people that run them, the difference they make is felt more than seen.
