  1. Welcome to the site. I hope you will find the answers you are looking for. I am a convert to the church. I joined when i was 15 and i'm the only member in my family. You will find many, many members with the same story as mine. I learned of the church and prayed. Then I learned for myself that this is the true gospel of Jesus Christ. I hope your journey will bring you the answers you seek.
  2. That is just about the funniest thing I have ever read, i just about wet myself trying to read it to my husband....ROFL. I rarely come into the forums but when i saw this title I knew it would be good.
  3. Okay well i'm not sure if this will be funny to anyone else but it sure got a laugh in my house. During general conference this past year my son who at the time was 5 became very curious about Jesus. At that age they are so easily confused. Anyway, I overheard him asking my 8 yr old if Jesus was invisible, her reply was no hes not invisible you just can't see him. To which he said WHAT?????
  4. Lost, you are really talented. I enjoyed watching your video, thanks for sharing it.
  5. welcome books, glad you found us
  6. Hi Joe, welcome this is truly a great site. Glad you found it. See ya around
  7. I would just like to agree with john doe
  8. I have always wanted to play sims but have never gotten around to buying it. Is it really that much fun? I'm gonna have to get it.
  9. That has to be the most touching poem ive ever read. beautiful
  10. yes this does happen and its sad but, i don't think it is intentional. It has been said before and it is so true, our faith is not just a religion it is a lifestyle. Conversion is a process and it doesn't always happen quickly. For most of us the process of conversion never stops, we are always learning new things about the church. Stay strong in the faith, a year from now you will look back and not be able to remember when you still felt uncomfortable. In time walking into church will feel like walking into your house, you will be comfortable and happy.
  11. I love that show. Those people crack me up, But hey they are quite thrifty
  12. I agree, I think some of the weddings now are outrageous. That money could be used for a down payment on a home. Couples don't really look at the future only the here and now, which is a huge mistake.
  13. My understanding is that to deny the holy ghost is to deny it exist. That even after knowing the holy ghost you deny its power. To my knowledge the holy ghost and holy spirit are the same.
  14. welcome and good luck hope you raise what you need. I'll add you to my facebook, so you better be good.
  15. oh sorry, I forgot to say you shouldn't stay home just because he doesn't want to go. When my husband gave me a choice I usually went with him but it was nice to know I could stay home if I wanted and there would be no arguements about it.
  16. My husbands mother used to cook every Sunday also. We were all expected to be there. I can understand both points of view on this. Heres the thing, going to my mother-in laws became like a second job. It was a given that we were going to be there. Sometimes I just wanted to stay home and rest. I resented the fact that I had to be there like I didn't have an option. So, in my opinion you should let your husband choose when he wants to go. If he wants to go fine, if not let him skip it. He is more likely to go of his own free will when given an option.
  17. Yes he is. :)
  18. okay that was way funny. r u sure that wasn't my kids? j/k
  19. Thats funny because I refuse to go to a women ob, i've never had a good experience with the women. Male OB providers are much more gentle.
  20. I think women in general are more nuturing but, men can also be great comforters and just as gentle as women. As a child my mother was the disciplinarian and my father the comforter. go figure. I think men are underestimated sometimes.
  21. Hi everyone, I wanted to introduce myself. I have been a member of the LDS church since I was 15 so 17 years now. My parents are not mormon so I'm a first generation.I got married at 19 and I am now the mother of 3 supercute kids. I love the church and I am grateful it is a part of my life. I have a testimony of the truthfulness of the restored Gospel and I like to share it with those who want to hear it.
