Every Tuesday at 11:30 a.m., students, faculty, and employees gather in the BYU-Idaho Center to hear Christ-centered messages at the university’s weekly devotional. Speakers are selected from university employees, leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and friends of BYU-Idaho. In addition, each semester one college hosts a guest speaker for a university forum hour.
The public is welcome to attend these events on campus. Devotionals are also broadcast live on www.byui.edu/devotionals, the BYU-Idaho Speeches Youtube channel and BYU-Idaho Radio.
