Dare to Stand Alone is a Mormon Messages video for youth, where President Thomas S. Monson, prophet and president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, shares a story of when he was in the U.S. Navy and felt very alone. He testifies that  ”we are never alone when we stand with our Father in Heaven.”  Read More →

Up until yesterday, I really had no idea what song I wanted to post today. On the drive home last night circa 2am, this gem came on in the car. My brain was hit with a ton of memories/happy feelings/whathaveyou. I have very distinct memories of driving home from work at midnight–this song was very often playing since it had just been released that year. Sister and I went to see him play  Read More →

Tweet He is Risen: Inspirational Easter Messages of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) Just in time for Easter, watch and share a new Christ-centered message,”He is Risen.” Ponder what the Savior means to all humanity—and to you personally. And then share the good news. The Life of Jesus Christ Bible Videos: He is Risen There’s been some waning in our secular culture of the significance of sacred days and a disappearance of reverence for or understanding of God and His Son, Jesus Christ. We live our lives on the surface of frenetic activity, quick fixes, shorter attention spams, abbreviated communications, and sometimes lose the depth of seeking and communication with the spiritual truths that matter most. This week has often been a time to slow down and ponder and remember the story of Christ, in particular, the victory over death and sin that He alone has provided for each of us! It’s a glorious time of hope and... Read the rest of this entry »

Tweet Arise to the Mountain is a new young adult inspirational video that was shown during the 2012 General Young Women Meeting of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (mistakenly called “The Mormon Church”). The video invites women of all faiths, and particularly committed young women of the Church of Jesus Christ, to be worthy to make and keep sacred covenants with the Savior and our Heavenly Father, and receive the ordinances of the temple that instruct, edify and strengthen everyone who participates in them. The sheet music for the song, as well as an mp3 version of it are available through Youth.LDS.org. Young women of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints live exemplary lives of service, and engage in a program of personal spiritual progress, through which they grow to become wiser and holier as they strive to follow the Savior’s pattern of discipleship in these formative years. The annual meeting described above precedes... Read the rest of this entry »

Tweet There is a video out there that tries to make a case for hating religion while at the same time loving Jesus. There is nothing necessarily new in that message, just the way it is presented is captivating and many people probably like it. However, the message is wrong, because to say that we hate religion does not produce good will among men, and complete lack of religion never created a happy society. Moreover, the author of the video does not understand that Jesus in fact established a church when he lived on this earth, and Jesus does not hate religion. If it is true that in the name of religion many atrocities have been committed, it is also true that many great things have been done because of religion. So, the problem is not “religion” but what we do in its name, and I think that the good things done in its name still outweigh the wrong one (but they are usually less glamorous). The following video is a Mormon or LDS reply to that video, Why... Read the rest of this entry »
