Here there are a few writing samples of articles i have written for mormoninsights.org, an online publication run by BYU. I was part of the staff during Fall semester 2015. This publication's aim is to share about important speeches, articles, and documents of the LDS Church, and make them known around the globe. This publication is especially aimed to the youth.
This is one of the articles i have written for Mormon Insights titled "Stand Strong in Your Faith." While writing for this publication, we were told to find relevant speeches, articles, or documents from the LDS Church that could be of importance for the youth around the globe. I chose the subject of courage and standing strong in the faith, because i think this is something that each youth struggles with at one point in their lives.
This is another article i have written for Mormon Insights titled "How Joseph Smith Preserved the Plates." While writing for this publication, we were told to find relevant speeches, articles, or documents from the LDS Church that could be of importance for the youth around the globe. In this article, I decided to talk about an essay that sheds some light on what happened after the Prophet Joseph Smith obtained the gold plates, and what he and his family had to do to preserve them and protect them from enemy hands. This should help the youth of the church around the world to appreciate the Book of Mormon more and learn a bit more about how it came into existence.
This is another article i have written for Mormon Insights titled "Before the Doctrine and Covenants." While writing for this publication, we were told to find relevant speeches, articles, or documents from the LDS Church that could be of importance for the youth around the globe. In this article, i share some information about two important documents. The documents share some light on the revelations that the Prophet Joseph Smith had received and compiled before the publication of what is now called the Doctrine and Covenants. This should help the youth to understand the importance of modern revelations.
This is another article i have written for Mormon Insights titled "Joseph Smith and the Kirtland Temple." While writing for this publication, we were told to find relevant speeches, articles, or documents from the LDS Church that could be of importance for the youth around the globe. This article should help the youth to know more about how the first LDS temple came to be and the importance of temples.
