The story of Christ’s birth is proof that dark moments can contain holy possibility.

The secretaries of Transportation, Energy, and Education are part of the presidential Cabinet and are in the presidential line of succession.

The imagery evoked by the phrase “a weary world rejoices” is what I imagine of the shepherds when the angel appears; of Mary and Joseph holding the baby Jesus after a long journey and labor in a stable; of Simeon and Anna in their old age when they recognized the baby Jesus at the temple in Jerusalem as their Messiah.

Around the world, poverty, conflict, and climate shocks are rising just as many governments are pulling back from international development spending. Into this widening gap step multilateral institutions like the World Bank and its concessional lending arm, the International Development Association (IDA).

Many experts say nationalism is on the rise around the world. But what is nationalism, and should we be concerned about it? In this resource guide, we have provided links to articles, documentaries, opinion pieces, and books that can help you better understand nationalism.

If we wish to live in a peaceful society, we have an obligation to help create it. This includes refusing to discount or condone words that call for violent solutions to legitimate political disagreements, and speaking up for those who defend the rule of law. We will continue to call on our political leaders to operate within the bounds of the Constitution, and we resolve to support those who speak and act in its defense.

The demand for electricity in the United States is increasing — and with it, our responsibility to ensure that power comes from clean, sustainable sources. Every community depends on reliable energy for daily life, but as new technologies like AI data centers rapidly increase electricity use, we have the opportunity to power change in our communities and invest in renewable energy that protects our health, our economy, and our planet.

I need the Savior every hour, in joy and in pain. And He is there. His presence filled us with rejoicing and with comfort. He helped us to grieve and to celebrate.

The Federal Reserve, informally known as the Fed, is the central bank of the U.S. government and aims to be a transparent, nonpartisan, and accountable federal agency. Its purpose is to provide a secure money system for the nation and to support the economy.
