Thanks for all the responses over the past month.I am keeping things at a close friendship level with my friend.We live on other sides of town so I am attending a different ward then her.Ive been praying and meditating and reading the Scriptures.and the bible that ive read my entire life.the one thing that Ive gotten out of the book of Mormon is the same testimony of Jesus Christ..Just Easier to understand what you can learn in the new testament in 4-5 paragraphs, and read it over and over you can read in the book of Mormon and get the same message in 1 paragraph,and its is true.

ya thanks for the welcomes...I grew up in a very diverse Family spiritually My brother and 2 stepfathers were members of the church and I have several cousins,Ive read the book of mormon a few times through growing up so I do have a pretty good understanding and everything in the book is Plausible..

thanks for the answers the Ironic thing is that over the past few weeks I had been sort of praying on joining the church anyways.Because of the tight family bond that the church represents and Ive had little things happen which confirms I should join so I will be going to service this weekend to check it out

Hello, I am of a Christian upbringing.I recently met a woman that is LDS and is working towards visiting the temple.Before I had met her with in a few weeks even I had been Praying and meditating about where my faith lays.I do believe that Christ would Present himself to the indigenoius population of north america because we are all his creation.whether its here or anywhere else in the world...It just makes sense.I believe Joseph Smith was a prophet.I have personal reasons for that as well. around this time I was approched by some Elders as well which granted I live in mesa AZ...its a heavy LDS population but this had never happened here before when I lived other places I always made my home there home....Basically what I am saying is through my prayer and meditation and meeting this woman and then the elders I feel like I am supposed to be with this woman,and convert....I would love to remarry and I would love to marry this woman.she is beautiful and classy and her kids are wonderful.Only hitch with this is I had a Vasectomy 5 years ago,and I am not a confirmed member of the church as much as I would like to be,for I want this marriage to be sealed and I am willing to participate as much as possible and I still want kids!!!Does my Past marriage and Vasectomy put a wrench in things or is this just another test of god?and if anyone knows a good surgeon let me know thanks....
