Heather Bundy

I wasn’t as deeply LDS as others, but it definitely shaped who I was and my relationship with God. My mom was LDS but my dad was an unbeliever. He was an alcoholic who would become abusive when drinking. This created a big wound for me being rejected by him, and I never felt worthy ofContinue reading “Heather Bundy”

Barbara Hoggan

I had 40 years of TBM-appearing membership, but was always wary of polygamy, becoming gods, and blacks being less valiant and denying them temple/priesthood privileges. 30 years of despising Joseph Smith after reading Sacred Loneliness. 28 years of knowing BoM was false after reading Simon Southerton’s letter about his DNA quest. 25 years sickened by theContinue reading “Barbara Hoggan”

Abigail Dove

I was born and raised Mormon. I left when I was 16. I never really liked going there, so one day I snuck away and googled, “Is Mormonism true?” I truly thought the whole time that the problem had been me and that I was rotten and forsaken by God. I believed that my searchContinue reading “Abigail Dove”

Alayna Hannon

My husband was born and raised LDS. He served in the Tucson, Arizona Mission, while I was a convert. A very committed convert. We met and dated and got married in the Draper Temple. I was raised Southern Baptist and I missed Jesus, but I also thought I had more of Jesus in the LDS church. WhenContinue reading “Alayna Hannon”

How Many Gods Are There?

I met with a couple missionaries in the summer of 2022. I asked them, “Don’t you guys believe that we can become gods?” The response I received was, “There have been leaders in the past who have taught that, but it’s not official doctrine.” This caught me off guard, but I took his word forContinue reading “How Many Gods Are There?”

The Testing Of A Prophet

There are so many false prophets that have risen up over the years and even more that are presently active in the world today. To make matters more confusing, many of these “prophets” profess the name of Jesus and they also appear to live generous, kind and wholesome lifestyles. Even false prophets can show outwardlyContinue reading “The Testing Of A Prophet”

Has The Bible Been Accurately Preserved Over Time?

1 Nephi 13:28 “Wherefore, thou seest that after the book hath gone forth through the hands of the great and abominable church, that there are many plain and precious things taken away from the book, which is the book of the Lamb of God.” The 8th Article of Faith “We believe the Bible to be the wordContinue reading “Has The Bible Been Accurately Preserved Over Time?”

Is The Trinity Biblical or Man Made?

The word “trinity” appears nowhere in the Bible. The first person to ever mention the word, “trinity” was the early church father, Tertullian and that wasn’t until the end of the 2nd century. Why then do so many Bible based Christians believe in the trinity? Let’s start with some basic questions, look at God’s Word,Continue reading “Is The Trinity Biblical or Man Made?”

Gospel Invitation

If you were to die today, where would you go? This question is something that makes a lot of us think about our choices here on earth and if we are truly living our lives in a right way that is honoring to God. Another way to ask this same question is: If God judgedContinue reading “Gospel Invitation”

Who Is Your Personal Mediator?

The bishop plays a critical role in the LDS Church and in lives of those who are striving to repent of their sins. Bishops often have members of their congregation confess private and personal sins to them. Why exactly do LDS members feel the need to confess these sins specifically to their bishop rather thanContinue reading “Who Is Your Personal Mediator?”
