Gated communities: Beginning with a vignette about how a missionary is so happy to leave gated communities behind, this blog author wonders \"Are Gated Communities Moral?\" It's an intriguing question with some fascinating opinions, although I got a kick out of this straightforward comment: \"To me, the solution is what general authorities have been hammering on for years: members should do the finding, and missionaries should do the teaching. Bam, problem solved.\"

Biking analogy: While cyclists should enjoy the advice for biking on the road, the true message of this post is spiritual. \"...we don't want to charge into every situation like we're the only person whose opinion matters — like barreling down the middle of the road 'cause I was there first. What are your neighbor's values? Do you even care? Do they have the right to \"pass you safely on the left,\" or should you force them to submit to your speed and direction?\" Find out more about what it means in both biking and life to \"Take the Land — Bold but not Overbearing.\"

Mormon pavilion: Take a close look at building in this \"Flickr Find: Mormon Pavilion at Expo '74 World's Fair Spokane.\" Wow, huh?

Mexican Stakes: Guess what? With the new Colima México Stake, now “Every State in Mexico Now Has a Stake.\" The blogger explains \"Missionaries have worked hard to establish this stake in Colima and it is exciting to see its creation.\" How's that for church growth in Mexico? Pretty cool.
