Two thousand years ago Jesus taught people with stories and parables. For many people today those stories make little sense and the context of the stories are lost on us. We do not live in first century Israel and we don't live today as they lived back then. Jesus told the stories He told because of who He was speaking to. But what if Jesus were to tell those stories today? How would He share those same truths? That is what Troy Richards has tried...

Excommunication, like revenge, is best served cold. Mine was-cold and quick on a clear autumn day. Excommunication! The word resonates like the bell of a gothic cathedral and seems as anachronistic as a rank of grinning gargoyles, as rebel monks, warrior popes, or heretics burning in a town square. It is a rite one might suppose had been relegated long ago to a footnote beyond the margins of modern life, a practice outdated as the related ritual of...

Nineteen years ago, I published a book on marriage at the request of people who had heard me
speak in church, at firesides, and at other church-related activities. Some of them were couples
I had counseled while serving in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As a result of
those responsibilities, I began researching conference talks, scriptures, articles about marriage,
and books by professionals, to find the inspiration and guidance...
