New MoTab Music Channel

 Choir Music 24/7

The Choir has a new feature on its website -- a music stream powered by the Mormon Channel. Now you can listen to Choir music all day, without interruptions. And, all night, too. The music stream is programmed with selections from the Choir’s deep reservoir of recorded music.

The best part is that the music stream is easily accessed on the Choir’s website under “Watch and Listen.” Click here for a simple step-by step guide on how to use the new stream.

Making the Scriptures Harder. Thank You, James Faulconer!

Oh, my.  I can see a trip to the bookstore will be one of the first things on my list when I get home in November.  And I really don't buy many LDS books.  These, however, look awesome.

James E. Faulconer is a professor of philosophy, a long-time devoted student of the scriptures, and author of the new “Made Harder” series from the Neal A. Maxwell Institute. —BHodges

Faulconer is also the author of the GREAT little book, Scripture Study: Tools and Suggestions , which I used for years as the textbook for the Institute class I taught on Scripture Study.  Now, it is available FREE online HERE

Repentance : I do not think that word means what you think it means

Andy Procter has written a great piece on repentance - supplimented by scenes from my favorite movie, "Princess Bride."  You can read it here.
