Liahona (formerlyTambuli in the English-language version) is an official magazine ofthe Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). It is named after the wordliahona from theBook of Mormon. The magazine began publication in 1977.
Prior to 2021, the magazine consisted of articles for children, youth, and adults, all of which were published concurrently in the church's English-languageEnsign,New Era, andFriend magazines. Until the April 1995 edition, theEnglish-language version of the magazine was calledTambuli; other language versions of the magazine had different titles. Since 1999, all the languages have adopted some form of the title "Liahona."
In 2020, the LDS Church announced that the English-languageEnsign magazine would be discontinued and would be replaced withLiahona.[4] SinceLiahona will thus be the church magazine for adults, the content formerly found inLiahona for children and youth will instead be found inThe Friend and the new magazineFor the Strength of Youth, respectively.
The Liahona was a weekly newspaper edited byNephi Anderson published inIndependence, Missouri, in 1907. It was collapsed withThe Elders' Journal (published inAtlanta, Georgia) intoLiahona, the Elders' Journal (based in Independence) which ran from 1907 to 1942. Both focused on the news and doctrine of the church, with relevant reprints.
