(05/07/08) View a three minute video presentation on motherhood by Jane Clayson Johnson. "Jane Clayson Johnson has a powerful message that is sorely needed today -- and she is the perfectly packaged messenger to do it!" -Sharon Larson, author of All Rain, No Mud Learn more at Jane Clayson Johnson's website. "What do you do?" It's a loaded question for many women, especially Latter-day Saint women, who recognize the sacred calling of motherhood but sometimes feel overwhelmed -- and undervalued -- in their roles as mothers. Author Jane Clayson Johnson has been asked that question on many occasions since trading in a prestigious and rewarding career in network news for the equally challenging career of motherhood. And, like most mothers, Jane has hesitated before answering the question. In this personal -- and honest -- narrative, Jane recounts how she has since learned to welcome questions about her role and to respond, with enthusiasm, "I am a mother." Her testimony of the gospel and refreshing... See less

(05/07/08) The spiritual life consists of many virtues and activities -- earnest prayer, scripture study, love of fellowman, caring service -- to name a few. Undergirding all, it seems, is attitude toward God. Here Elder Neal A. Maxwell shows how crucial is that element. For the disciple, he points out, the teaching and example of Jesus Christ shows an inescapable pattern -- submission always to the Father's will. The Savior's greatest test and greatest triumph -- the love-inspired Atonement -- capsulizes and personifies this spirit: "Not my will, but thine." As he bore and "learned . . . obedience by the things which he suffered," so we should bear our infinitely lighter burdens or problems, whether they result from life's vicissitudes or from our Father's deliberate tutor process. We should, as King Benjamin put it, submit to God's will "even as a child doth submit to his father." The author offers sound advice on the compelling reasons as well as on the "how-to." One reason is that there is no... See less

(04/04/08) The five little monkeys and their mama have had it with their "rickety, rattletrap wreck of a car." It's time to sell this old heap. Mama makes a "For Sale" sign and goes inside. But her ever-helpful children worry that the car is too icky, sticky, and slimy, and take matters into their own industrious hands. "I know!" says one little monkey. And next thing they know, they're washing and scrubbing the filthy jalopy. Now it's clean, but still rusty and stinky. The monkeys ponder. "I know!" says one little monkey. Soon the car is painted and perfumed within an inch of its life. Unfortunately, it's not visible to potential buyers. "I know!" says one little monkey. With all these collective brainstorms, it's not long before the sparkly clean, psychedelically colorful car has landed in the swamp, with the five chagrined little monkeys inside, and a gaggle of crocodiles lurking nearby, licking their chops. How will they ever get themselves out of this mess, and sell the car, to boot? "I... See less

(04/04/08) Mama's out dancing, and Lulu, the babysitter, is in charge.
