PEOPLE WHO STUDY The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints — either as a way to live or simply as an item on the menu of American religion — are often struck by the sweet sincerity of the blessings that church members give to their children.

LDS leaders encourage parents to lay their hands on their children — in blessing, not anger. And those blessings are almost always nourishing spiritual morsels.
