I’ve had the good fortune of teaching 4 years of Institute at the University of California Riverside and another 2 years of Early Morning Seminary for the LDS Church. Out of 6 years of teaching in the Church Educational System, I don’t really remember any of the lessons that I taught…except for one. Teaching seminary…
I am a Mormon…and I work with guys of all faiths. Together…we run a company called “Belief Wear“. In our office are Evangelical Christians, Mormons, Agnostics, and guys that are into the Eastern Religions. We all get along. No… I’d take it a step further. We all love each other! That love comes because of…
Every week I’d go to Church, I’d walk through the same door and see the same face. There was Dave Wilsey…with a big smile on his face, a firm handshake, and always something positive to say. He is a tall strong guy and truly a man “without guile.” I served with him closely in the Church…
The more I study the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints…the more I come across these little “coincidences.” Some people call them coincidences but others call them divine orchestration. As if the God of heaven had his hand in specific events in order to give those that look close enough…an extra boost of faith….
Dear Professor, One day when I was in your class, you started teaching about Darwinian evolution, the Big Bang, and the universe as if you had witnessed all of these events with your own eyes. Your devotion to “your faith” could have put many religious people’s faith to shame. When you were in the middle of one of your atheistic discourses, I…
Have you ever sat down to watch a movie and then had the itch to turn it off just for what it stood for…but then you’re like “Dang…I just spent money renting this, I’ve got to watch the whole thing and see what happens”. Then you get to the end and you still kick yourself…
Dear Carls Jr. – I’ve been a big fan of your burgers for a long time. You’ve always had a unique taste that kept me coming back. Then you guys came up with those unbelievable milkshakes. They are the best of any milkshakes around. Then there is your breakfast! Some of my best memories consist…
Don’t believe everything you hear about the Mormons. Odds are…it’s probably not true. When my wife and I were dating before I left on my mission (yes…I was engaged when I left on my mission), we did the nerdiest stuff you can think of. Instead of going to the movies, we derived pleasure from visiting the various…
The Bible is a pretty awesome book…as long as you see it for what it is and what it is not. The Bible is certainly not ‘infallible’ and it’s definitely not ‘complete’. Anyone who tells you that, just doesn’t understand where the Bible came from and what it went through in order to reach us. The…
It’s no mystery that many people are not happy in the relationships they are in. There is an old Jewish tradition that states “a happy marriage is as rare as the parting of the Red Sea.” I am utterly convinced that in many relationships…this issue has a lot to do with the guy. There are some…
