I wonder what is driving the increase in number of missionaries serving? Are we still seeing effects of people who waited until post Covid to serve? Looks like an increase of about 10,000 full time teaching missionaries and 5000 senior missionaries compared to 2022 #mormonsky
That's a lot, similar to the number of missions created in 2014 (54 then by my count) after the age change for sisters and the hastening the work push. More now if you count the 30 plus missions created last year. #mormonsky

Does anyone else remember in the 1990s/2000sb when we were all obsessed with "free agency"? I very much prefer Bednar's framing.
#mormonsky #ldsconf Would anyone be interested in doing a church-related Book Club of some sort? This would probably be a fair amount of #mormonhistory and #mormon social issues, such as books by @wpaulreeve.bsky.social and Benjamin Park.

I was going to add this quote from Brigham Young, but I didn't want to bombard my readers with Mormonism too much: #mormonsky #mormon #faithsky
I never do this #mormonsky #mormon #faithsky, but here is my sermon from last Sunday: Accessing the Power of God. drive.google.com/file/d/1SXOC...
Just wanted to note that I quoted the #Silmarillion in a sermon today, and even my Bishop liked it! #mormonsky #tolkiensky
tried it with a different even narrower niche edge case—LDS presidents. There should be 17, and it knocked out Thomas S. Monson (but attempted to draw him as Gordon B. Hinckley) #mormonsky
#mormonsky On the day after #PioneerDay I feel the need to remind people that the song says "none can walk up there but the pure in heart," not "but people with Mormon pioneer ancestors"...
#mormonsky do #HarryAnderson 's paintings of Christ for the LDS Church look like #StevenWeber to anyone else?

New hymns dropped today:
They butchered Still Still Still and I don't know how I feel about it...
I love I'm Gonna Live! and the hymn from Mexico!
Another favorite #Easter hymn: Behold the Wounds in Jesus' Hands #faithsky #faith #mormon #mormonsky #greaterlove open.spotify.com/track/2LnMuV...
A meme illustrating the triangular relationship between the phrases "Adam fell that men might be, and men are that they might have joy. And the Messiah cometh in the fullness of time..."
Happy #Easter Weekend everyone!
If there had been no Creation, there would be no Fall. If there had been no Fall, there would be no Easter. If there had been no Easter, there would be no #Christmas. If there had been no Christmas, there would be no #Redeemer. #mormon #mormonsky #tolkien #faithsky
Related to these paintings, which remain among my favorite paintings of the Passion/Atonement, I made a playlist for Easter, which you are free to listen to: open.spotify.com/playlist/7KI...

This underscores the need to give our full name, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (which some people rightfully shorten to the Church of Jesus Christ), more often. It's right there in the name, explicit and stated. #mormon #mormonsky
#mormonsky #faithsky Happy #Easter Week next week tomorrow, everyone! #frasiersky #frasier
In case you all liked "Were You There" at Gen Conf, here is the Queen of Gospel Mahalia Jackson singing it: open.spotify.com/track/3bFInG... #genconf #mormon #mormonsky #ldsconf #churchofjesuschrist
I liked the Babylon Bee specifically for its Mormon humor, and then I saw the massive garbage spewing from it about other groups.
This one is funny, though #mormonsky
Here is some #GladysKnight -led examples to help anyone who wants to add some Gospel Spirit to their church meetings! The whole album was sold by Deseret Book in the 2000s and was unofficially encouraged and endorsed by Pres. Hinckley. #mormonsky #gospelmusic

@benjaminepark.bsky.social Someone referred to Mormon Orthodoxy, particularly when you try to spread it around the world, as "Wasatch Front Culture," and I think that is a PERFECT term for it. #mormonsky #mormon #faithsky

Here's a playlist of ideas for Eastertide (In which I'm including Lent). It includes the Tabernacle Choir's Easter EP. #mormonsky #musicsky #faithsky #mormon
What are your favorite hymns to jazz up (now that we can)? I did an R&B-inspired rendition of His Eye Is On the Sparrow and Teach Me to Walk for a relative's rebaptism, I want to do more, perhaps for sacrament meeting, at least in the prelude! #mormonsky #mormon #lds
If anyone is interested in W. Cleon Skousen's Atonement talk, I found video and text transcript versions of it #mormon #mormonsky #faithsky rcronk.wordpress.com/2007/07/27/a...
In reference to a large number of people signing the "Radical Orthodoxy" manifesto a few years back, I like to refer to these people as "Orthodox Mormons." #mormonsky #mormon #faithsky #orthodox
