I’ve taken a brief hiatus from a deep study of the Book of Mormon because I’ve been writing a lot and had a big stack of books I needed to get through. Over the past couple months, I’ve personally witnessed in myself what happens as a person neglects to study the Book of Mormon. I know that Book is…

I just want to let you know up front that this may be a little longer of a read than my normal length blogs based on the sensitivity of the subject. But please…please…read it all the way through. My wife and I have shied away from Section 132 for awhile now. A surface reading of it…
I’ve got a small challenge for anyone who calls themselves a Christian. Here it is… Don’t treat people like dirt…and then expect them to want to join your church.

“Now, I wish to encourage those who are in the midst of hard trials, who feel their faith may be fading under the onslaught of troubles. There seems to me no better answer to the question of why trials come and what we are to do than the words of the Lord Himself, who passed through…
This is going to be sort of graphic. Just letting you know before you get into it. But I feel like it needs to be shared. When I was a missionary cruising the streets of Michigan…we came across all sorts of people. We walked up and down the streets in our white shirts and ties…
Some people wouldn’t consider Mormonism a world religion…but it is. Mormonism is Christianity at its core. It’s a restoration of the Church that Christ established when He was on the earth. What really makes the church unique is the fact that it’s the only religion on earth that I know of that tries to embrace all…
Now before you read this, please realize that I’m not calling any one person “dumb”. I’m calling the actions of one person in this article dumb and the actions of others that act in like manner. On October 5th 2014, my family and I attended a religious event in Salt Lake City Utah. It was…
