Filed under Mormoncopia
A few nights ago I had the opportunity to see The Forgotten Carols starring Michael McLean. This is a production put on every holiday season that helps remind us the reason we celebrate Christmas.
The basis of the story line is that everyone has a “carol”. The production features musical carols from the Inn Keeper that [...]

Recently I’ve pointed out various articles detailing Christianity in Iraq in relation to the Iraq War and the struggles practicing/believing Christians are having in the country. I saw an article today and was amazed at that there were 1 million Iraqi Christians before the first Gulf War. This number has dwindled to less than 500,000 today [...]

Since it seems that The LDS Church continues to get pummelled from various sources I thought it prudent to post some resources that are pro-LDS.

I came across this article a couple weeks ago over at Mormon Times but didn’t have time to share it.
It’s about an expatriate branch in Beijing, China that has recently been split due to growth. The Lord continues to prepare the enormous land of China for the Gospel of Jesus Christ!

Catholic and Islamic Dialouge
November 4, 2008 by DH
Filed under Mormon Middle East
With U.S. election news dominating headlines the interfaith dialouge between the Vatican and Muslim leaders should not be overlooked. With East so often butting heads with West this can be an excellent example of how two different religions can communicate so as to co-exist peacefully without hatred and misunderstanding trumping love and undestanding.
