On Sundays we try and focus more on the Savior than we normally would during the week. By this I don’t mean that we forget about God during the week and then do a turn-around on the Sabbath, but we try and make Sundays a little more focused on Jesus and His gospel. One example [...]

Thomas Jefferson Would have been a Mormon
Posted in Christianity on March 29, 2012 | 19 Comments »
I received an email from a close family member of mine who is of a different Christian faith requesting that I listen to the sermon given by a former Muslim who had converted to Christianity. In the sermon, the gentleman discusses the differences between Muslim and Christianity and basically (without saying it, but implying it) [...]
Mormon Church doing away with Baptisms for the Dead
Posted in Christianity, Latter-day Saints on March 1, 2012 | 30 Comments »
Baptisms for the Dead have been a part of the Mormon church almost from the beginning. For those who are not familiar with the Mormon view of baptisms for the dead feel free to review this link for articles and scriptural references on baptisms for the dead. Here is a very short history on where [...]
Ways to Measure if you have Charity (Christ’s Love)
Posted in Christianity, Jesus, Love on February 18, 2012 | 12 Comments »
Last week’s article was about how to develop Charity (which we identified is the pure love of Christ) in one’s life. This week, I thought it would be appropriate to share how you can measure the extent that you have Christ’s love in your heart. These suggestions were given by members of our Stake Presidency [...]
Mormons Earning Salvation and Becoming Gods
Posted in Christianity, Latter-day Saints, Mormon Christians on January 20, 2012 | 42 Comments »
We had a pretty interesting discussion to close out our last Elders meeting in 2011. It was a lesson on judgment and the second coming. As you can imagine, many interesting things were said. Some off the wall about what would happen leading up to the Second Coming, and others that were scripturally based. One [...]
Pure Religion: Caring for an Aging Parent or Grandparent
Posted in Christianity, Family, Patience on December 8, 2011 | 4 Comments »
In the New Testament, James defines pure religion as visiting people in their afflictions, and also keeping oneself unspotted from the world. With that thought in mind, I contacted one of my aging grandparents, whose health is steadily declining. I received a phone call from my grandparent a few weeks ago, but the excuses I [...]
Scientific Proof on why Chrisitian Women Shouldn’t Wear Bikinis
Posted in Christianity, morality on December 1, 2011 | 24 Comments »
Growing up in a Mormon society and household, modesty was something that was spoken of frequently. Since the majority of the population and culture I was in was predominately LDS, or Mormon, it was against the social norm to wear tight, or revealing clothing and when going out in the sun, bikinis were nearly unheard [...]
80% of Christian Singles Admit to Pre-marital Sex
Posted in Christianity on October 13, 2011 | 8 Comments »
An article entitled “Almost Everyone’s Doing It” in Relevant magazine includes a poll that shows 80% of Evangelical singles admit to having pre-marital sex. What was even more surprising was another poll in the article showed that 65% of women who have abortions in the US identify themselves as Christian, but that’s a side topic. [...]
Steps to take when you Receive or are Offered Anti-Mormon Literature
Posted in Christianity, Latter-day Saints on June 27, 2011 | 2 Comments »
Recently I had a close member of my family give me a movie called “Joseph Smith vs. the Bible” (actually, they left it in my car). Since I’ve rarely had a Christian give me something about Mormons that wasn’t propaganda to try and convince Mormons they’re wrong, I really had no desire to watch it. [...]
