Teens from varying religions overcome differences

SALT LAKE CITY — A group of teenagers climbed on a big wooden platform Thursday at the ROPES Challenge Course in the scorching Utah heat. But it wasn't just any platform. It was built like a seesaw, and the youngsters had to balance together to keep all four edges from touching the ground.

Mormon mission age drop not as significant as feared on Utah colleges and universities

The enrollment fallout at Utah colleges and universities from the age drop of LDS missionaries will not be as significant as originally feared. In January, the Utah System of Higher Education released a report projecting enrollment dips of between 2 percent and 10 percent at Utah's public schools after The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints changed the allowable age of missionary service from 19 to 18 for men and 21 to 19 for women.

D&C 2; JSH 1:27-65: Turn to the Fathers

By Jonathan Plowman

People say “age is just a number” all the time, but do they practice what they preach? My experience says the answer is… sometimes. As far as relationships go, it can get complicated. Age signifies so much more than just a number: it can reflect your maturity, your stage in life, and your experience. At the same time, age can be deceptive. Not every 21-year-old is on the same playing field--some are already gearing up for the ninth inning while others are just jumping into the dating game. It’s often “different strokes for different folks,” as the old saying goes. The lyrics to an old TV sitcom—“Diff’rent Strokes” —often reminded me as I was growing up: “What might be right for you may not be right for some.”
