General Info

Living Scriptures, established in 1974 by Jared F. Brown and Seldon O. Young, originally sold audiocassette dramatizations of the Bible called "The Family Hour." In 1976, Brown and Young developed the telemarketing pioneer NICE Corporation. They were one of the first companies to design a computerized system based on telemarketing. In 1988, NICE was sold to Cincinnati Bell and is now known as Convergys. This sale allowed Brown and Young to develop animated videos from the scriptures and has progressed into a Latter-day Saints-oriented entertainment media business that features not only scripture animated stories but live-action docudrama productions, as well as dramatized audio tapes, compact discs, music and books. The company also operates LDS.NET, a full-service filtered Internet provider, and Latter-day Harvest, a provider a discounted LDS products, such as books, scriptures, music and videos. Living Scriptures is located in Ogden, Utah.
