Writing

We really need writers. It’s usually easier to find members who are willing to edit other people’s articles than people who accept the challenge of writing their own articles.
At this time, we especially need articles on basic principles of the gospel. It should be relatively easy for any member of the Church to write an [...]

President’s Message

I’ve been a writer for years and years; everything from newspaper articles to full-length books. (Do a search for my name sometime in Amazon.) One thing that I’ve learned in all that time is that writing for the Internet is different than any other type of writing you can do.
