Today’s post comes courtesy of another meme I found online this week. Ha, ‘lucky’ us! The meme was a pretty picture of a Mormon temple with a partial quote from Spencer Kimball.

LDS Prophet Doubts Efficacy of Jesus’ Atonement
Melissa e-mailed me the meme of a Mormon quote that’s quite popular on FB. She mentioned the quote had no reference on where to find the original source so I went looking around and found this in a speech given by one of their apostles, Robert D. Hales. Our question is this – If you’re […]
Roots of Mormonism: The Kimball Clan

Thought of the Day about Mormonism and 2 Nephi 30:6
This thought of the day came about after speaking with an uncle of mine earlier this week and our conversation regarding my great-grandmother’s ethnicity. After we ended our call I began wondering once again why the Church would’ve allowed this side of my family into their exclusive priesthood back in the late 1800’s when they […]
