My Favorite Finds from the Online Church World

I compiled some of the links to inspirational finds for a Relief Society Activity presentation a few weeks ago.

Download Favorite Stories from the Friend to CD or MP3 for bedtime or car trips
LDS Youth Music to Download or Stream
Mormon Channel

• Music Streaming Radio-uplifting music

• Stories from General Conference (73 episodes of 20-30 minute compiled short stories organized by topics such as prayer, endurance, marriage, honesty, gratitude) Great for Bedtime Stories, Listening while exercising, clips for FHE 
• The Light of Men - 12 episodes of radio dramas depicting the life and ministry of the Savior.  The first one I happened to listen to was about the betrayal and crucifixion.  It gave me a greater appreciation for the Savior's willpower to be accused, mocked and ridiculed without reacting in a negative way.  It helped me to keep the covenant of "always remembering him" more for at least that day.

• Gospel Solutions for Families - 74 episodes, "Keeping Your Sanity in a Home of Little Ones", Family Councils, Reverence, Promoting Agency, Marriage Roles, Teens and Dating, Forgiveness, Teaching Chastity, Role of Grandparents, Caring for Special Needs, Loss of a Loved One, etc.  I was so inspired by the thoughts from the general Relief Society President (mother of 13!) on keeping sanity in a home of little ones that I posted them on fb. I woke up feeling depressed and tired but this helped me turn it into a good day.
  It's really important to plug in to the joy. Hard things are the things that make us grow. Move forward in a relaxed loving way. What would a holy woman do? Family Home Evening + Scriptures + Prayer = A good day (week). Provide intimate spiritual experiences. A good teacher is patient, but God will compensate for the difference. #1 in the handbook - prepare spiritually
• Enduring it Well - Discussions with Real Life People w/real challenges who are enduring various trials well
