In his Washington Post "On Faith" forum column this week, Michael Otterson, Public Affairs managing director of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints explains that "countless Christians have wondered what it was truly like, not only on that most holy of nights, but later in Jesus Christ's life."
A few years ago the Church began including nativity scenes from various nations and cultures in its Christmas display at Temple Square. While the traditional nativity has always been a central piece of Temple Square at Christmas time, these other depictions of the crèche demonstrate the worldwide adoration for the Savior Jesus Christ.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' mormon*org website was selected as one of Interactive Media Awards (IMA) "Top Ten Websites of the Year" this week. Award judges considered more than 4,000 entries from 53 countries and all 50 U.S. states. According the IMA, 36 nominees represent the sites with the highest-scoring evaluations from among the Best in Class winners. From those 36, IMA judges select the top ten and the winners are determined by popular vote. .
@Joeybsmooth "My Ancestors have what your people would call the curse"
NONE of "my people" use that term. However, the term did originate with the EVANGELICALS and was used to justify SLAVERY, JIM CROWS and SEGREGATION. THREE things that the Mormon community did NOT participate in. Yet, you ATTACK the Mormons and give the EVANGELICALS a pass?
There are lots of pencils; pictures of families eating dinner; families playing with a red ball; families in the living room with scriptures; families in the garden planting carrots (everyone is happy planting vegetables and getting dirty, and mother is usually wearing a work dress, and it's all very 1950s); and lots of old filmstrips that no one wants to throw away for fear of some media curse.
But in the ward, having a normal ward library meant having a normal ward librarian.

If only Christians were as devoted to missionary work! Spreading the truth of Christ with only a Bible and a decent understanding of it.
