What the Salt Lake Tabernacle Looked Like 135 Years Ago

Tabernacle acoustics have not always been as perfect as the stories of pin-dropping suggest. That loopy cable, whatever material it is made of, is just one of several early attempts to improve acoustics by hanging things from the ceiling (I don’t understand the principle).

Mormon Volunteers Help Digitize Ohio Records Back to 1788

On a recent afternoon, Dan and Carolyn Grammer stood amid the towering, dusty bookshelves in the attic of the Washington County Courthouse, eager to work despite the daunting task that confronted them.

28: The Paths We Choose

Eric and Chris were best friends and drinking buddies during and after high school and while Chris was a member of the Church, religion was definitely the farthest thing from their minds. When a personal crisis led Eric toward God, his lifelong friendship with Chris and their shared experiences years before showed them both that the path back to the Savior can look very different from the way you might expect.

Thinking Different about the Restoration with Steven Harper

This episode jumps into something that is right the Out of the Best Books alley. It’s all about asking this crucial question of our faith: why does this church matter? We'll explore how we can encourage the wrestle of that. Hopefully we can see our study of the Doctrine and Covenants this year in a new light, and it may enlighten the conversations we have around the Sunday dinner table.

Visitors’ Center Reopens at Mexico City Temple

More than 20,000 guests have visited The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ Mexico City Temple Visitors’ Center since it reopened to the public on 23 November 2013. The visitors’ center was first opened in November 1983 and was closed for nearly two years during the remodeling and expansion. The center is more than 19,000 square feet, the third largest temple visitors’ center out of more than a dozen such facilities in the Church, after Temple Square in Salt Lake City and a visitors’ center in Washington, D.C. Visitors’ centers exist not only to acquaint people with the Church but also to help them understand its beliefs. The Church operates visitors’ centers throughout the world, usually located near a temple or Church historic site.

When movies laugh at Mormons, it isn't always mean

By now you may have seen reviews of the ultra-vulgar Broadway musical "The Book of Mormon," which has been playing in previews over the past month and officially opened on the Great White Way last week. But however successful the production may prove to be, it still won't have much impact on the church. And the audience that will see it on Broadway, even if it has a long run, is relatively small.
