Recently, a Sunday School lesson in our Mormon Church was on a Book of Mormon prophet named Enos. His account is very short in the Book of Mormon, but it is a very important chapter in the Book. In short, he describes a long prayer and process he goes through to receive forgiveness from his [...]

Cartoons about Jesus: Seeking and Finding God in our Lives
Posted in Christianity, Jesus, Spirituality on April 20, 2012 | 1 Comment »
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 [...]
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 [...]
Excommunication: The Lie that God Removes His Spirit
Posted in Church, Forgiveness, Jesus on June 20, 2011 | 19 Comments »
Excommunication is defined by the LDS church as “A disciplinary process used only in extreme situations. This includes removal of an individual’s name from the records of the Church“. From my experience (which isn’t that extensive) with excommunication, one is removed for serious, repeated sexual sins or by having a very rebellious attitude towards the [...]

In one of my most recent posts, there was mention of Glenn Beck and how he has helped bridge the gap between Christians and Mormons.

As we were getting ready to celebrate the new year this evening, my wife showed me a story from her cousin’s roomate that touched me and I thought it was appropriate to share. It is a story of a young couple who chose to get married despite the fact the young bride is struggling with [...]

Are Mormons Born Again?
Posted in Christianity, Holy Ghost, Jesus, Mormon Christians, Spirituality on March 30, 2009 | 22 Comments »
Over a year ago, I wrote a post called “Why do People Leave the LDS Church?” It has since become one of my most frequented posts and recently received a comment from a sincere seeker of Jesus who has just left the LDS church. She has started a blog called Musings on Mormonism that shows [...]
