I have been watching and reading a lot about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints ever since I decided to leave it behind (they say you can leave it, but you can never leave it alone… very true so far). This is one that I have seen recently, and it raises a lot of good points for people who are perhaps on the fence about their future in the LDS faith. This man in the video, Lee Baker, was Mormon… and a Bishop at that. He knows what he is talking about. Some powerful stuff here.
As I will always say when presenting things of this nature (Mormon or LDS), just listen to what he has to say, and give an actual look at the LDS faith and the truth behind it. I am sure you will be surprised.

This is very interesting. Check out the article, as it gives a lot of insight into the twenty-somethings of today and their walk with and away from religion.
Sometimes doing the right thing means stepping outside your comfort zone, and that can often times mean trusting someone you don’t particularly like, or even have a reason to trust. Sometimes the right thing isn’t the best thing, but at least integrity will prevail.
I always appreciate when someone is willing to do the right thing.
Redefined: A New Start
Well, I basically mass deleted the 2000+ posts on my blog. I left a few that are perhaps reflections of who I am, and what I like. I intend on starting fresh, more or less. A lot has changed in my life since I started this Tumblr Blog in 2009, and I feel that those things don’t need to remain documented here.
I hope you, my followers, will remain with me, but I must warn you, I may not be the same blogger you followed before. I intend on posting things regarding my faith, my hopes, and my life as I continue to redefine it. It will be a process, for sure, and I am not at all sure where I will take this blog. I am also sure that things I may post will offend some. I am sorry for this, but I cannot hide who and what I am. I live by faith, and I will walk by faith. That will certainly show on my blog.
