Who Will be Saved in the Celestial Kingdom?
When your 12 year old son texts you from Mormon church to double check the doctrines he’s hearing… This is not the first time my son has asked me about something or reported to me something weird he heard over the pulpit. (I’m a very proud mama. I’ve trained him well😂) People, this is the Continue reading

The Cross
If there was a simple symbol you could wear that would identify you as a Christian, indicating Christ’s atonement for you, would you want to wear it? Why ever not? I can’t help wondering if the reason Mormons don’t wear a cross is because it’s powerful. It would be antithetical to the church’s true purpose. Continue reading

Eternal Life
We took our son to his first experience with the youth group at the new church tonight. Dropping him off and introducing ourselves to the staff, it just felt so safe and welcoming. The church says “Welcome Home” out front. I’ve felt at home here ever since the first time I came—-and I had no Continue reading

Becoming Children of Christ
This is another doctrine I learned from the Christians that I’ve been pondering. If God isn’t a relatable man with a family, what’s our relationship to Him? Why does He even care about us? What does it mean to be children of God? The Christians told me only the believers are Children of God. At Continue reading

Unless There be a Falling Away First
This week I felt directed to examine the claims of apostasy and really nail down my beliefs. Let me remind you, one huge part of my “faith crisis” was realizing that other Christians were good, legit, and saved. So naturally, my entire testimony of the restoration was gone in one fell swoop and I needed Continue reading

Unity Among Christians
I’ve been asked “How do we share Christianity with Mormons?” and we discussed at length. My initial answer is that it’s a lost cause. But no. My second answer was “Well, here’s how my eyes were opened, so maybe if …..” But then after discussing with a group for 20 minutes, here’s what I came Continue reading

Jesus is God!
As I read my Book of Mormon with new eyes, one thing I noticed now is that Jesus is God! It is so clear! It was nice to have LDS doctrine backing up what I was feeling at The Well, so I could have some validation I wasn’t being deceived. One day I was explaining Continue reading

My Story – Part 5
Now that I’ve explained how I grew more and more disaffected with my ward, let me explain my personal conversion to the true Jesus. As I went to the temple over and over in fall 2023, I sought Him. I wanted Him in my life so much! When they do the covenant of consecration, I Continue reading

Mis Amigos Hispanos en Jesús
I had the wonderful opportunity last night to praise God with some new friends, in a different language, and to share my conversion story with them. It was such a beautiful thing. Their testimonies are powerful. Their light was shining bright—La luz en sus corazones. It’s the light from Jesus Christ, that is common among Continue reading

Inviting Guests to Church
I used to love telling my friends about the church. In Oregon when my kids were small, we mostly had just non-member friends. People we met from the homeschool or home birth community. Really fun, interesting people. I used to love inviting people to church! I was on fire about the gospel and I wanted Continue reading
