There are a lot of things I like about Morgan Philpot. There are a few things that make me scratch my head, but they are outnumbered by the really impressive things he shares. I get there is a lot of speculation as to how things fit together, but there are […]

REVIEW – Pastor’s HONEST Thoughts on Latter-day Saint Temples
Overall, this was a very honest and respectful compare and contrast of LDS temples, LDS beliefs sand protestant beliefs.
REVIEW – Stick of Joseph – DNA Evidence for The Book of Mormon and Heartland Geographic Model
This was a great discussion. I really loved the direction it went, and the knowledge Rodney L. Meldrum brought to the table. It started with Rodney sharing his conversion as a young man then went into a discussion about Book of Mormon DNA presented by the mother of a young man in his ward.
All you need to do is pick the winners.
In the lesson, the teacher made the statement that old Biff made to young Biff; “All I have to do is bet on a winner.”

If you have read any of my posts you will know I really like Hello Saints, but I am also critical of some of the content.
