Re: Did anyone else hear voices?

I attended a leadership meeting the Boyd Packer back in the 1980. The only thing that I still remember was him saying he had never seen a Heavenly being, and had never heard an audible voice in response to his prayers. The point he was making was that we should just go with our feelings (Holy Ghost)...

Re: If you talk to a BYU _______ Professor…

If you talk to a BYU law professor, they will say that Kirton McConkie does shady things for the church, but everything else about the church is true.

J. Golden Kimball was once being chastised by a member for drinking coffee saying: "I would sooner commit adultery than drink coffee", to which Kimball replied, "hell, who wouldn't?"

Re: Your Favorite Foods

Last month I was in London on business, and went to a fancy restaurant owned by Gordon Ramsay called the Narrow. I had one of the best desserts ever! (easily my top 5). It was Sticky Toffee Pudding with salted caramel ice cream. I almost ordered two! it was that good.

Re: Five Months Down. 54 To Go.

I've shared this before, but worth repeating. While I was Bishop, we had a visiting 70 meet with just the bishops. He told us the Q12 wants bishops to have both a wife and a job when they are released, and they are seeing more and more cases where this is not the case. He also told us that the avera...

Re: Is Trek gone for good? (I hope!)

OK, trek is not a proper noun, unless you are talking about the bicycle brand. It is an intransitive verb, and a noun. When used as a noun like the church uses it, it requires an article in front of it, like "we are going on a trek" or "we went to the trek last week". Just like pageant. You go to "a...

Bishop, you should have gave a "Triger warning" at the start of your post!

It will make your life much better. Once a 70 came t...
