Based on the popular novel by Dean Hughes, Midway to Heaven, is a movie that was released on DVD today. It is quite a fun and enjoyable romance, comedy, and drama. It has a great cast, good performance, and absolutely no vulgar language at all (unlike most PG rated movies). This is definitely a movie [...]
LDS media star Glenn Beck is leading a national spiritual renaissance in defense of both the Constitution and Judeo-Christian Values. His 8/28 Restoring Honor Rally in 2010 drew a crowd estimated at three-quarters of a million people to hear him and others speak on the National Mall in front of the Lincoln Memorial last summer. [...]
In 2007 The Secret, by Rhonda Byrne, was an internationally acclaimed DVD on the Law of Attraction. When the Tom Ballantyne Jr watched it for the first time, his immediate response was to get up off the couch and grab his scriptures. He then immediately began to look up verses that came to mind as [...]
Apparently, Hollywood has been trying for the past several years to shut down edited movie companies, who provide a service of making edited movies to remove vulgar language, gory violence, and sexual content.

This book is probably one of the most unusual religious books you will ever read. Why? Because besides all the police stories this book has, the author is a professional investigator. For [...]
I went and bought this at the hefty price of nearly $100, and it’s worth every penny. It’s a over-sized volume (9 in. x 12 in.) filled with full-page color reproductions in almost 800 pages. I highly recommend it. The Revelations and Translations series of the Joseph Smith Papers Project presents carefully reproduced facsimiles of [...]
We do not have cable television in our home; we canceled cable a year ago. We only get local channels, so rarely do we watch the popular cable TV shows. Besides, it is a “waste of time.” As Elder Uchtdorf said, “The nonessential things that take up time should be discarded, bad habits changed.” After [...]
