ArticlesA Physician Testifies About the Crucifixion
- Written by Dr. C. Truman Davis
I have no competence to discuss the infinite psychic and spiritual suffering of the incarnate God atoning for the sins of fallen man. But it seemed to me that, as a physician, I might pursue the physiological and anatomical aspects of our Lord's passion in some depth.

Building A Family Legacy - The Marriott Story
- Written by Richard E. Marriott

To the Home Teachers of the Church
- Written by President Ezra Taft Benson
I rejoice in this opportunity to say a few words to you tonight.
