This "His Grace" video is a touching complement to our study of Noah and the Flood this week in Come, Follow Me.

Watch how one early-returning missionary decided to face his doubts and depression, realizing that sometimes answers come in the form of baby-sized miracles instead of grand manifestations.

In a newly-released Church video, scenes from the Book of Mormon Videos, general conference clips, and personal stories from Latter-day Saints are woven together to create a beautiful message.

This is the first Spanish-only social media account by any senior leader.

It started out with some poker home games, and on occasion, visiting a casino to play. Then one night his friend handed him a pill so he could stay awake and alert to gable all night long. He later found out the pill was meth, and Josh was hooked immediately.

Latter-day Saints use the King James Bible along with other scripture to learn the will and word of God. But while you may know your Bible verses, you might not know these things about the King James Version of the Bible.

The Church released the April 2018 World Report today in advance of general conference this weekend. The World Report is the semiannual report of Church news and events.

Have you ever wondered how a new Apostle is chosen in the LDS Church?

A new update from our Church leaders. The Church did confirm this action was not carried out due to disillusionment or apostasy.

Church members participating in the Saturday afternoon session of The 186th Annual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints witnessed a sustaining vote that was not unanimous. Here's what you need to know:

In an address given to CES religious educators earlier this month, Elder Jeffrey R. Holland shared powerful insights on how we can handle teaching others of our faith and belief in the face of "troubling contemporary issues." Here's what he had to say:

A lot has happened in the world and within the Church since last general conference—from the US Supreme Court's ruling on gay marriage to the death of three Apostles to the dedication of four new temples. It's incredible to think just how much can change over six short months. Take a look!

Over the last several weeks, it seems everyone from the Huffington Post to USA Today is talking about the "Mormon Preppers"–a small group of members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who are overstocking their food storage and updating their 72 hour kits under the premise that the world is ending.

Early last week, President Boyd K. Packer was preparing his talk for the upcoming October general conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints before his health began to fail and he died Friday at 90 years old of causes incident to old age.

How can I make daily prayer more meaningful? It’s a good question, and it’s one that applies to all of us. President Hinckley used to say that sometimes when we pray it’s like we’re picking up a phone, ordering groceries, and then we hang up the phone—we put in our order, and we don’t think any more about it than that. But if we take a few minutes just to think about our particular need in a given moment, then prayer becomes more meaningful.

In a 5-4 decision that was publicized Friday morning, the Supreme Court of the United States of America made its decision in favor of same-sex marriage. This ruling will effectively make same-sex marriage legal throughout the country.

The gospel of Jesus Christ is more than a set of teachings. It’s a community of real people living in real places.

Some time ago I blogged about a new seminary manual on the Doctrine and Covenants released by the Church. The manual is significant because it includes discussions of sensitive topics related to Church history, such as the multiple accounts of the First Vision, the Mountain Meadows Massacre and the Utah War, the history of plural marriage, and the history of the priesthood ban. It appears that by including these topics the Church is taking steps towards more transparency when it comes to its history and "inoculating" its young members who are likely to encounter antagonistic websites that can easily blindside them with these issues if they aren't prepared.

Lisa King was recently named Barnardos Mother of the Year for Tasmania. She is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as are her family.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ second temple in Peru, the Trujillo Peru Temple, was dedicated on Sunday, June 21, 2015. President Dieter F. Uchtdorf, second counselor in the Church’s First Presidency, presided over the services and gave the dedicatory prayer.

I mentioned previously that ward leaders would soon be able to manage home and visiting teaching and callings on LDS.org from any internet-connected device without having to use MLS on the computer at the church. It’s now here. (At least for my ward. If you can’t get access as described in this article, don’t worry. It will be coming to your ward very soon.)

In a recently released leadership training video, members of the Seventy and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles discussed the importance of keeping the sabbath day holy and making sacrament meeting more meaningful. A shortened version of that meeting was then sent out to stake leaders to share with individual ward councils.
