As a Mormon Sunday School teacher Mark Reynolds Jersey , it shocks me every Sunday to see how little the teenagers I teach know about the scriptures, church history and prophecies of the latter days. Although the LDS book industry prints materials and products to assist members in learning more, how many children and teens choose to read them? Living Scriptures animated videos and docudramas are wonderful tools that any Mormon parent can use to introduce their children and teens to the gospel through Bible story videos, the modern prophet hero product line, the docudrama Visit Israel and other animated stories from the Book of Mormon and American History.
The Living Scriptures started in 1974 with audio cassette tapes that I still own (although I don't think I have anything to play them on.) Their business model stipulated you could only buy them from sales people. Shortly after this time Pat Valaika Jersey , Living Scriptures hired Orson Scott Card and Richard James Rich to write and illustrate their first animated stories of the Book of Mormon VHS tapes. (I've got those, too.) But they didn't stop there.
Bible story videos were next on the Living Scriptures list, and I was shocked that my children (the oldest was ten at the time) didn't even know about Paul until they watched the Living Scriptures animated stories about his incredible missions. The Living Scriptures introduced my kids to the Book of Mormon and Bible stories with animated videos that they enjoyed watching and remembered!
Another area our children often don't know about is great figures of the past. So little of the historical hero classics are even taught in school anymore. Living Scriptures continued their animated stories by telling the true stories of the founding fathers, William Bradford, Helen Keller Todd Helton Rockies Jersey , Joan of Arc and more. All of Living Scriptures animated products are available at Deseret Book, but lately Living Scriptures has expanded their product line.
Modern Prophets hero series is an awesome product that Living Scriptures chose not to animate. Instead they took LDS book industry knowledge and historical information to create prophets hero classics with living footage of the Mormon modern prophets when available, and other reenacted scenes. Living Scriptures also included actual photos and documents. Most exciting, Living Scriptures has only recently completed their Gordon B. Hinckley modern prophets hero video. I can't wait to get one! And to complete their Church history products, Living Scriptures has a movie forum of the restoration from the Mormon church beginnings in Palmyra to the international missionary efforts today.
Another product Living Scriptures has recently released is Cleon Skousen's docudrama Visit Israel Nolan Arenado Rockies Jersey , which includes six videos of the Holy Land and the history, traditions and scripture prophecies concerning Israel. Visit Israel CDs are also available at Deseret Book stores and are an incredible way to introduce your children to the scriptures and the prophecies in them that they may see fulfilled during their lifetimes.
My children have truly benefited from Orson Scott Card and Richard James Rich's first animated stories of the Bible and Book of Mormon VHS tapes. These new Living Scripture products of the modern prophet hero series, the hero classics and the documdrama Visit Israel are sure to add to their knowledge of the gospel, and I want to watch them too.

Be Careful on MLB Betting With These Hot Starters Sports Articles | May 11, 2012 .You know those great hot starters? Yes right.

You know those great hot starters? Yes right. Those hot starters which once in your life, fooled you to put all your MLB betting on their team because they look like they are really good and will make you win huge money. Each MLB season has it. And today, I?m going to list out some of the hot starters today on MLB 2012. I didn?t tell you not to bet on them. I?m just telling you I?m not buying it and doubt that it will last. Here are they:
Edwin Encarnacion, DH, Toronto Blue Jays Edwin Encarnacion has been on fire this season Charlie Blackmon Rockies Jersey , as he finds himself sitting on nine home runs and a .931 OPS, after hitting a total of 17 home runs with a .787 OPS last year.Not surprisingly, Encarnacion has cooled off in May. He has two hits so far this month, and has gone hitless in each of Toronto's last four games.
This is just the beginning of Encarnacion's cool-down. The fact of the matter is that he was putting up numbers that weren't sustainable, and they still look that way.
Bronson Arroyo Daniel Murphy Rockies Jersey , SP, Cincinnati Reds Bronson Arroyo was historically bad last season. This year, Arroyo looks completely refreshed, and he's been mowing hitters down on a regular basis. A little too regular, I think. After his win on Monday against the Brewers Carlos Gonzalez Rockies Jersey , Arroyo has his ERA down to 2.75 and his WHIP down to 1.17. He's helped himself by upping his strikeout rate this season, and decreasing his BB9 to a razor-thin 0.92. Arroyo, however, remains hittable. Opponents are hitting him at a .275 clip this season, which isn't far off from the .286 clip they hit him at last season Todd Helton Womens Jersey , and it's actually par for the course for hitters against Arroyo ever since the beginning of the 2007 season.
