Sigh… We’ll be sure to add this to our next installment of ‘Worst of the Worst Quotes’. Journal of Discourses 6:368 “…it may not be amiss to ask here, by whose power victory so often […]
Today we’re exploring the long held Mormon belief that Jesus Christ was married. The reason why we’re doing this today is because of the sermon my pastor delivered this past Memorial Day weekend.
