Oh hi. Yes I'm a carrot

[isacarrot]

I guess I've sort of introduced myself in other threads already - oh well.

I came to ThirdHour primarily to pick brains about a scripture study project I'm starting. It's in this thread. I've been a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints my whole life. Served a mission too. I've been reevaluating my beliefs over the last few years and it's been a thoroughly painful process. Still active and faith-seeking. My faith crisis is the impetus for my project.

I will probably be here and there, posting intermittently. I appreciate the warmth with which I have been received already and I look forward to future conversations.

Welcome again, @isacarrot!  Nice avatar.   Best wishes in your faith-seeking.  Who knows, we might help with that.

Haha so I said the "Restored Church of Jesus Christ" in my first post since it rolls off the tongue a little easier and I thought it was even mentioned in the Church Style Guide.

I thought to look it up and in fact one of the 40 Latter-day Saint sects in Independence, MO is called the Restored Church of Jesus Christ! I was about to complain to the Mormon Newsroom via hotline when I noticed that the Style Guide actually says that "restored Church of Jesus Christ" with a lower-case "r" is appropriate.

So forgive me if I misled you into thinking I was one of the 20-odd members of the aforementioned sect. I'm sure you had all sorts of questions.
