There is a phrase that appears several times in the scriptures, a few times in the Doctrine and Covenants and a few times in the Book of Mormon, that I have always found extremely interesting. “Say nothing but repentance unto this generation” or in the Book of Mosiah, 18:20, “Yea, even he commanded them that … Continue reading Mormon Monday: Nothing but Repentance

I do not want to discuss the specific members discussed and quoted in this article … Continue reading Mormon Monday: On doubting the faith
