Study: Top cities to raise kids

When families move for work or lifestyle changes, they try to pick the place with the best opportunities for their children as well as for overall living standards. Parents carefully consider many factors, including the quality of schools in the area, the cost of living, the available amenities, and safety, to name a few—and this is no easy task. In Businessweek.com’s 6th annual ranking of best places to raise kids, we teamed up with Bloomberg Rankings to evaluate 4,169 places with a crime index less than 10 percent above the national average, populations between 1,000 and 50,000 people, and median family income within 20 percent of the state median, using data from real estate data company Onboard Informatics.

Washington Post: Mormon religion a non-issue during the 2012 presidential election

John G. Turner teaches religious studies at George Mason University, is the author of "Brigham Young: Pioneer Prophet,” recently published by Harvard University Press, and a contributor to The Washington Post’s local faith leader network. On the one hand, Mitt Romney has further kindled American interest in its most famous homegrown religion. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) has not been in the crosshairs of this much sustained media interest for at least 100 years. At the same time, Mormonism has yet to emerge as a live political issue during the 2012 campaign.

Watch: How the Scriptures Reveal the Way Temple Worship Changes Over Time

By LDS Living

While the truths revealed through temple worship are unchanging, the way our Heavenly Father reveals those truths and makes covenants with His children have changed from dispensation to dispensation. In the Bible, we see many similarities between the Tabernacle of Moses and modern-day temples, but there are also distinct differences between ancient and current temple worship. Take, for example, animal sacrifices, which were performed to foreshadow the life and sacrifice of Jesus Christ. But when Jesus Christ visited the Nephites, He explained animal sacrifice was to be replaced with the sacrifice of a broken heart and a contrite spirit (3 Nephi 9:19–20). Learn more about the way temple practices have changed over time with this fascinating video from Book of Mormon Central:
