At the LDS Newroom, “2008: A Historic Year for the Church,” highlighting and discussing major LDS stories from 2008. The biggies: The passing of President Gordon B. Hinckley, with Thomas S. Monson becoming the 16th President of the Church shortly thereafter; the first volume of the Joseph Smith Papers project finally getting published; and Elder Ballard (an LDS apostle) publicly encouraging Mormons to discuss their faith online via blogs and other forums. Oh, and there was that Prop 8 thing, too.
