Everything begins with a thought. You must monitor your thought patterns, because from thoughts come words; from words come beliefs; from beliefs come actions and more similar thoughts; from actions and habits come your destiny. The author urges you to clean it up now, so your life will be one that is well lived, happy, satisfying. Psychologists and spiritual people agree that once you control the thoughts that roll through you mind, your life begins to change.

Bringing Human Rights Back: Embracing Human Rights as a Mechanism for Addressing Gaps in United States Law examines well-documented policy failures in the United States and makes an argument for how a human rights approach to these issues can lead to meaningful change. Specifically, the authors articulate a human rights approach to online harassment of women, child poverty, and access to safe drinking water. These issue areas all involve human rights concerns and gross shortcomings within current law, policy, and practice in the United States. The authors analyze recent events, such as Gamergate, contention over social programs such as TANF and CHIP, and the water crises in Flint and Detroit to demonstrate the ways in which current laws do not fully respect, protect, and fulfill human rights. A human rights approach decenters assigning blame or liability, and instead emphasizes human dignity, redress, and remedy for the rights violations. Daniel Tagliarina and Corinne Tagliarina not only highlight the need for change in these areas, but outline a practical way forward rooted in human rights scholarship and practice.

According to Joseph Smith, Doctrine and Covenants 42 embraces the law of the church. In this collection of essays, six scholars probe the significance of this revelation, and especially the significance of its status as "law". In what ways is D&C 42 especially the law of consecration "binding for Latter-day Saints" today? These wide-ranging essays argue the law remains in force, and in many different ways.
