The red car accelerated up the ramp and onto the freeway, and the two men inside settled back comfortably, pleased to be heading out of the city so early in the morning. They had already spent some pleasant minutes conversing together as they had worked their way across town.

How to Change Your Family
It seems logical that many Latter-day Saints who read this book might ask, "How may we become a more effective family?" You may have preschoolers and elementary-school-age children, perhaps with new babies still coming. Or perhaps your children are teenagers or even adults living at home. The good news (we suppose it could also be the bad news) is that there is no particular age or stage when parenting is automatically easier.

Dating Decisions
Dating can be a problem for teens, and decisions about dating seem to bring otherwise harmonious parents and children to the point of conflict. In our family, we've handled dating exactly as we've handled all situations for which counsel from the Church exists. The principle is certainly clear enough: group activities after age fourteen, double- or triple-dating after sixteen, and single-dating after mission age.

Without Purse or Scrip
by
Dean Hughes
Today, in most cases, missionaries begin their service at a missionary training center. When they reach their field of labor, they are guided by experienced senior companions. These modern missionaries usually think they live in humble circumstances, but if their rooms are not fancy, at least they do have places to live. And each month a check arrives, even if it is rather small.

Things I Wish I'd Known Sooner
When my husband was graduating from Harvard Business School, on the last day of classes General George Doriot, one of his professors, invited students to bring their wives to his final lecture. During the hour and a half in which we sat in the amphitheater of Baker Hall listening to General Doriot, we heard a most astonishing collection of thoughts, advice, wisdom, and personal observations gathered by this remarkable man through a long career of achievement and distinguished business and political connections.

Remarriage and Combined Families
Combined families, also referred to as blended, second, reconstituted, step, or rem (remarried) families, are those families where at least one, if not both, husband and wife have been married before and have had children. Remarriage resulting in combined families is an increasingly common phenomenon that affects millions of men, women, and children. More than 50 million remarried people are currently living in the United States, and in 1975 one in every four marriages involved someone who had been married before. In 1982, 41 percent of all marriages were remarriages for one or both partners.

Love is a Verb
by
Mary Ellen Edmunds
I first learned about verbs from my third-grade teacher, Nellie Higbee. Verbs, she said, were action words like kick, run, hit, jump, bite, scream, and fly. The word love seemed more like a noun to me in those days. But gradually I began to realize that love is a verb as well. Love is doing. It's action.

In a revelation the Lord said, “Blessed is my servant Hyrum Smith; for I, the Lord, love him because of the integrity of his heart, and because he loveth that which is right.” (D&C 124:15.) I personally know of no higher praise that any man could receive.
