Mormon-Themed Commercials! Occasionally Mormons are featured in even secular commercials. I hope you enjoy these clips! This Mr. Sub commercial implies that Mr. Sub sandwiches are so good that they can make even good people (Mormon missionaries) do terrible things (steal people’s food). Very funny! In this commercial, a Mormon missionary uses a body spray to attract […] (November 14, 2009, 2 comments)
I know a member friend who drinks o’douls non alcoholic beer , and says it’s not against his word of wisdom. I looked at his bottle and it shows that it still has a low percentage of alcohol in it. Is it breaking the word of wisdom to drink this? Can he be kicked out of […] (November 14, 2009, 2 comments)
I’ve been a member of the church for 5 years. My husband liv es in another country because of his work. I live alone. I was unfaithful to him before I was baptized. After being baptized, I’ve only seen my ex-lover three times, and each time we only kissed. I feel so bad because my husband […] (November 14, 2009, 4 comments)
Perhaps Now All of England will become Mormon… Or…maybe not. 😉 The BBC recently produced a wonderful documentary about wayward teenagers that features a Mormon family. Rarely does the media portray Mormons in so favorable a light. The family featured is in some ways an atypical Mormon family. Most Mormons don’t home school their children, for example, and most don’t sing in barbershop […] (November 13, 2009)
Top 10 Tips for New Mormon Bloggers/Webmasters. Hi all. Occasionally people ask me for my recommendations on how to start a Mormon website. Given Elder Ballard’s recent counsel that more Mormons engage in online missionary work, it really is a great time to become a Mormon webmaster or blogger. SO MANY PEOPLE search the Internet for information about Mormons. We can do […] (November 9, 2009)
How do you explain baptisms for the dead? I have a friend in terested in finding out the true doctrines of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, but she is not interested in becoming a member or getting the missionary lessons. She had a question about the baptisms for the dead, and I tried […] (November 9, 2009, 2 comments)
Joseph Smith / Book of Mormon. I knew Joseph Smith was a prophet when I realized that the Book of Mormon was undeniably true. I knew that, like elder Jeffrey R. Holland said, no evil man could write such a book, and no good man would, unless it be the will of God. (November 8, 2009)
Webmaster, In my investigation of the church, I have heard, time and time again, three central arguments against the church that I cannot seem to refute. One, I fall short of explaining out of lack of familiarity with the subject while the other two I feel I cannot adequately address, only partially. First, I’ve heard […] (November 7, 2009, 3 comments)

I would like to become a member of the church but I have a l ot of questions. If I’m Mormon, can I use a crucifix or jewelry with a picture of Jesus in it? How can I recognize a true prophet? What’s the deal with tithing? When do you guys have worship services? When can […] (November 2, 2009, 3 comments)
Of all the Mormon doctrines, I really struggle most with the idea that God and man are in the same physical image. Although it allows me to feel closer to him it limits my concept of the Almighty, plus it forces me to think about if God has all the bodily functions we have (an […] (October 31, 2009, 3 comments)
I stumbled into a website that had many anti-mormon comments . I simply asked them the questions, have you read the Book of Mormon and what did you think about it. They recommended I read: “Who Really Wrote the Book of Mormon?: The Spalding Enigma.” I do not want to read something I suspect is loaded […] (October 31, 2009, 2 comments)
A Mormon I Know. I know a mormon and he or she is one of the most honest and trustworthy people I know. Children love her and the marginalized are drawn to her light. (October 30, 2009)
In Joseph Smith History 1: 62-64, Joseph says he copied some characters from the plates and translated them. Later, Martin Harris showed these characters to a man named professor Anthon. Harris said that Anthon said the translation was correct. But the Book of Mormon says the language of the Nephites was not known to anyone […] (October 26, 2009, 2 comments)
In the Book of Mormon, Mormon 9:33-35 says that Mormon, the ancient American prophet, did not write in Hebrew. The language had been changed by the people. I read on your site that there are Hebrew features in the Book of Mormon text. How is that possible, if the Book of Mormon was not written […] (October 25, 2009, 2 comments)
Hi. I’m a member of the church, and in my highschool I met a nother boy who’s also a member. We were talking about the church, and he confessed that when he was baptized, he was not worthy of baptism.

The Bible describes the immediate baptism of the Jailer (act s 16: 33-34) and the baptism of 3 thousand people in Jerusalem (acts 2: 37). What do Mormons say about these passages? Could these baptisms have only taken place by sprinkling (aspersion)? Why do Mormons baptize by immersion? (October 24, 2009, 1 comment)

We were recently invited to attend a temple wedding and need to renew our recommends. I have a few sins I have not confessed but my husband insists that I am being petty and that the church doesn’t expect me to be perfect. What are the moral consequences if I were to just renew my […] (October 18, 2009, 4 comments)
I recently discovered my husband has been unfaithful. I have not approached him yet because my daughter is supposed to be babtised in a couple months and it would crush her if her dad could not do it. Since I know for a fact that he is not worthy, will this affect the validity of […] (October 18, 2009, 2 comments)

What’s it like to feel the Spirit? I was invited by a frien d to visit the church. I identified a lot with the Church. On the second visit I was invited to be baptized, but I was a little afraid (not sure why). When the elder taught me about baptism, he said I should pray […] (October 11, 2009, 2 comments)
My Testimony: The Book of Mormon. I gained a testimony of the Book of Mormon by asking my Heavenly Father to give a testimony of it as I was tracting with the missionaries and they said to the investigator that ‘Brother Fisher here knows the Book of Mormon is true’. I wasn’t sure – but I am now! That was 41 […] (October 5, 2009)

An Incredible Member of the Church! I recently read the story of a remarkable Mormon. Dorothy Wagner, born in 1904, was baptized when she was 103 years old! A Presbyterian for nearly a century, Sister Wagner is one of the oldest converts in the history of the Church. A few years ago, sister Wagner was driving around on Easter Sunday when […] (September 21, 2009, 1 comment)
