I benefit a smidge if you buy books & music, or anything else, at Amazon.com after linking to it from my site.
“Leap of Faith: Why Democrats Can Win Over Mormons,” a web-only article from the New Republic by Amy Sullivan.
A Mormon Wasp article about the Strengthening Church Members Committee, that was taken offline for unknown reasons.
A WSJ article that references three people I know—Linda Watkins, Shannon Stowell, Kimberley Stewart—and a person I admire whose opinion I always like to read, Jan Shipps.
SLT coverage of the reaction to Elder Marlin Jensen’s statements of May 3, 1998.
A long SLT article about the Elder Marlin Jensen’s statements on the too-close relationship between the Republican Party and the LDS Church. A sub-headline read, “LDS Official Calls for More Political Diversity.” This article prompted a lot of response and some consternation.
Transcript of a SLT interview, conducted on April 23, 1998, with Marlin Jensen of the 1st Quorum of the Seventy of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
A talk on religious values and public policy given by Elder Oaks in 1992. The Ensign didn’t publish the full text. Some portions were removed, mostly because they are specific American examples not applicable to the rest of the worldwide Ensign readership. I publish the whole talk here, with the removed portions shown in red.
