Latter-day Saints have a duty to keep themselves clean in order to be an effective instrument in the hands of God, Darren Duerden, associate professor of music, told the audience at this week's devotional.
Duerden, a seven-year member of BYU-Hawaii's music faculty and talented musician, shared a unique perspective on the scriptural phrase an instrument in the hands of God. "To the musical artist, no possession, at least that can be owned, is more valued than their instrument. It is their voice or medium for expression," he said.

Business students may not at first consider a job in the medical field out of college, but they are highly needed, Dr. Robert Aki said earlier this month.
"The people that run those hospitals, that make…decisions, aren't doctors anymore. They're not the patients, even. It's basically all about health care administration, and most administrators don't even have a medical degree," he said.
After graduating from BYU-Hawaii in 1995, Aki attended the California College of Podiatric Medicine. He then practiced for two years in Los Angeles and three years in Honolulu as a foot and ankle surgeon by trade. Aki explained how much the field has changed, though, since he completed undergraduate work. "Medicine has changed quite dramatically into much more specialized fields," he said.

True worship of Deity requires a person's devotion and attention every day and in every way, BYU-Hawaii's first lady, Margaret Wheelwright, told the audience at this week's devotional.
"The fact that we are all…at this university is evidence that we are devoted men and women interested in hallowing the Lord's name…but we are here because we want to try a little harder and reach a little higher in our quest for true worship," she said.
Sister Wheelwright broke down true worship into five elements, all beginning with the letter t. She said these components are like building blocks and that a person must be actively engaged to attain a state of spiritual well-being.
