Work on finding a way to stay before deciding to leave and face major complications and headaches in every area of your life.

Re: My strategy moving forward
Yes, back-and-forth emotions are common. Go slowly and tackle things one step at a time. You will find a proper balance if you are patient.

Re: "Imagine If": A Poem My Daughter Wrote
I like to bump up this thread from six years ago occasionally when we have a bunch of new participants.

Re: "The CES Letter"
Many Prophets of whom we have record had something that could be seen as a prophetic disqualification - and the "greatest" often had the worst. That is true especially of those who were founding figures. Noah got drunk and was raped by his daughter; Moses murdered a man and then let his ego take per...

Re: Getting ordained online
If essentially anyone can marry anyone and have it be accepted by the government (if there aren't solid guidelines), there are trafficking groups that could perform civil marriages that would legitimize non-consensual arrangements.

Re: Home Teaching is Over, Long Live Home Teaching!
The actions and discussions in our ward have been great so far.
They even have said we are in a bit of a holding pattern until the new EQP is called and can coordinate properly with the RS President to make new assignments for everyone.

Re: Nelson in Africa
To follow up on what Roy just said: I have a huge problem with anything that even implies ridicule of the widow for paying her mite - or even the system that demanded she do so. It is important for people to feel like they are contributing to something about which they care deeply, and it is unchari...
