180th Semi-Annual LDS General Conference

Time again for the Semi Annual Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints–Mormon General Conference. LDS Media Talk has a great post with several links on how best to enjoy this year’s October Conference. There are also several Blogernacle Links where you can follow conference: Of course there is the By Common Consent Threads–i.e., The One and Only True General Conference Thread (psst–don’t tell them, but they think they’re the only ‘nacle link out there for General Conference). Chris H over at FPR has an open thread, mingling the philosophies of men, with conference (and being the social justice guru I know him to be, it will also include the philosophies of women as well). M* also has an open thread. If you Tweet, the follow #ldsconf for pithy 140 character summaries. Should be a great 5 sessions. Come listen to Prophets, Seers and Revelators–messengers of the Lord Jesus Christ, and mold your life accordingly . . .

I traditionally live blog all sessions of the LDS General Conference. This year, I will be out town on Saturday, October 3, 2009 the first day of the conference. I hope to be back in time for Sunday’s Sessions. There are other great resources on various LDS Blogs for conference. Check out The Mormon Archipelago for threads covering conference. The Church’s website has links to Internet coverage. See LDS Media Talk for additional links. Those who will address the world during this General Conference are modern day living Prophets and Apostles. They are called to be special witnesses of Jesus Christ and His message. I urge all to listen to their words and give them great weight.
