    I legit thought they were building up to an expansion of women’s duties within the priesthood. Talk after talk and then BAM! A sweet, sweet logo.

      President Nelson started out so strong. Combining M. priesthood quorums, 2 hour church, ministering changes as examples. But lately, it’s all been about branding. Name emphasis, new logos, it all feels very corporate, and I tend to role my eyes when it happens in business, and have a hard time seeing the inspiration in these changes, or how they will make a meaningful difference in the lives of saints or the 4 missions of the church.

        That is a nice looking logo.
        "...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

          I thought the same thing. That it felt very corporate’esque.. not saying it isn’t inspired but.. A logo. Totally anti-climatic..

            I like the logo.

              The logo is great.

                That’s very cynical of you. If there is not a major change at every conference it is a big letdown now? And corporate?

                RMN became the prophet in January 2018 for heavens sake. He has earned the right to let up on the gas pedal a little from time to time.

                Also there is always tomorrow.

                  I love that RMN continues to find ways to emphasize Jesus Christ in the Church. That's what it's all about, folks.

                        I tried to do the new logo with easy cheese on a ritz cracker but it is a lot more difficult than you’d think.

                          RMN isn’t messing around. Moroni gone from the gospel library app this morning.

                          Mormon and his family have had a rough year to say the least!

                            Yeah, well, maybe Moroni should have thought about maybe not dropping the trumpet.

                              At Sister Diddley's suggestion, we dressed up for the Solemn Assembly.

                              Cope, you guys sound great!
