When the System Abandons Accountability The vaccine court is a federal program that exists not to hold pharmaceutical companies accountable, but to protect them from the consequences of their products. If your child is harmed by a vaccine, you cannot sue the manufacturer in a traditional court. Instead, you are forced into a government-run tribunal that quietly settles claims and shields corporations from public scrutiny. This system guarantees that vaccine companies never… Read more

Standing for Principle in the Spotlight It is not easy to stand alone, especially in the entertainment industry, where fame and fortune so often require compromise. Neal McDonough, known for his roles in Yellowstone and Band of Brothers, found this out the hard way. He made it a rule never to kiss or engage in intimate scenes with anyone but his wife.

There was a time when schools were not fortresses. When families did not live in fear of the next headline.

In a world that grows more confusing by the day, where information is abundant but true wisdom is increasingly rare, every Latter-day Saint family would benefit from having something in their home that connects them to a time when truth was treated with reverence. That something is a complete encyclopedia set printed before 1920. At first, it may seem like a simple collection of old books, but in reality, these encyclopedias are… Read more

A Son of God Misled by the World Miles Yardley was fifteen years old when adults around him began pressuring him to question his identity. Teachers did not guide him. Doctors did not pause. Even clergy in his life offered no real spiritual foundation. Instead, he was rushed into a path of permanent change after only two visits to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. He was prescribed hormone therapy and praised by… Read more

Families Are at the Center of God's Plan As Latter-day Saints, we understand that families are not temporary social units. They are eternal structures ordained by God for our growth, joy, and salvation. In The Family: A Proclamation to the World, we are taught that “the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children.” That truth has never changed. But the world we live in often… Read more

In a world that often feels fractured and hurried, there exists a force so profound, so transformative, that it can literally heal both body and soul. This force is a mother's love—a divine gift that mirrors the very essence of our Heavenly Parents' love for us. Elder Gary E. Stevenson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles shared a remarkable story that beautifully illustrates this truth, bridging the gap between scientific discovery… Read more

Braving the Unknown: Serving an LDS Mission During COVID 19 When a young man or woman accepts the call to serve a full time mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, they step into the unknown with faith.
