Greg McMurdie muses, What if Church members used blogs and other New Media tools to help fulfill President Benson’s vision of “flooding the Earth with the Book of Mormon”?
President Benson said, “The Book of Mormon is the instrument that God designed to ’sweep the earth as with a flood, to gather out [His] elect.’ (Moses 7:62.) This sacred volume of scripture needs to become more...
Testimony Tag is an idea for sharing your beliefs on your blog and encouraging your friends to do the same. You may have seen these viral games of “tag” in which one blogger writes, for example, “5 things you didn’t know about me” and then “tags” others to do the same.
If you have a blog, you can participate in a Testimony Tag by

We’ve just launched a new version of MormonTestimonies.org and we’ve changed our assumption of what a “testimony” is.

The More Good Foundation recently launched LDS.net, a social network for Church members to share their Mormon beliefs online. Features include blogs, forums, videos, photos, testimonies, news, and chat.
We intended for LDS.net to be like a fishbowl, allowing persons of other faiths to “peer in” and passively observe what Mormons think, believe, and say. But the result has been even better: several...
Last week at the Utah Open Source Conference, Tom Welch, Technology Community Manager for the Church, spoke about his work as CTO of Linspire. While at Linspire, they created a tool called IRMA, by which volunteers could participate in the translation of their software. For example, a volunteer with a few minutes on her hands might visit IRMA to translate text like “Your file was not found” into...

“And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples. And when the Pharisees...
Giuseppe worked a little magic and connected with Ed J. Pinegar, who kindly agreed to bear his testimony for the camera so we could publish it on YouTube and Google Video. We hope this will be the beginning of hundreds of video testimonies from prominent and not-so-prominent Church members. Find more text and video testimonies at Mormon Testimonies.
