Liahona (formerly Tambuli in the English-language translation) is the official international magazine of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It is named after the word Liahona from the Book of Mormon. The Liahona is published in 51 different languages from one to twelve times per year depending on the language. The Liahona consists of articles for youth, teens, and adults, all of which are published concurrently in the church's Ensign, New Era, and Friend magazines.

Until the April 1995 edition, the English-language version of the magazine was called Tambuli; other language versions of the magazine had different titles. Since 1999, all the languages have adopted some form of the title "Liahona."
