“Be not weary in well doing”
Sounds like good council. So what has failed when you suddenly find yourself very, very weary? What is wrong when it seems like the more “well” things you try to do, the more “not well” opposition seems to rear its ugly (and trust me…it’s UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH GLEEE) head?
I love it when [...]

“We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the Gospel are: first, faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, repentance; third, Baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; fourth, Laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost”.
The LDS Church teaches that FAITH as the FIRST principle of the [...]

Marriage-and its definition-has been the ultimate source of bloggernacle fodder for months now. The national elections this year bring with them a tough call for citizens local to the state of California and whether or not they vote to redefine marriage to include the marriages of men to men and women to women.
That issue has [...]

After yet ANOTHER endless circular discussion on blacks and the priesthood and gay marriage yada yada until my head aches…I finally decided that it was time to post one of my “weak” little discoveries on my blog for those who truly seek to ponder on.

(Ya gotta have THREE wo’s to be considered extremely serious ya know). In my research today I came across the following little gem from [...]

Marion G. Romney-Some members assume that one can be in full harmony with the spirit of the gospel, enjoy full fellowship in the Church, and at the same time be out of harmony with the leaders of the Church and the counsel and direction they give. Such a position is wholly inconsistent. . . . [...]

The Priesthood Ban-
Before a core doctrine can be changed, it must first BE a core doctrine. I refer to the above criteria listed in part 1 of this E.G.O.-
Core:the central, innermost, or most essential part of anything
Doctrine:a collection of particular principles, positions, or beliefs taught or advocated

Today’s E.G.O. Alert

The purpose behind threads that bear the title E.G.O. (Erroneous Gospel Opinion) Alert is to examine whether or not specific arguments being presented in the LDS Blogging community as “TRUE” actually ARE “TRUTH”. If they are, they will harmonize with the “eternal and everlasting knowledge, wisdom and principles revealed by God [...]

I’m not one of those people that blogs every day and records every family event, personal trial, or joke-my blog is not my life’s journal. I’m not one of those people that feels a blog is the perfect place to flesh out my own scriptural or doctrinal doubts or display my personal and painful burdens [...]

This post is dedicated to someone I’ve never met, but hugely respect. He makes me laugh, he makes me think, and if we were in high school together we’d probably geek around together and he’d make me pass notes to his girlfriend for him. And I would.
