David Archuleta song about stepping away from the Church

Discussions about negotiating relationships between faithful LDS believers and the apostates who love them. This applies in particular to mixed-faith marriages, but relations with children, parents, siblings, friends, and ward members is very welcome.

David Archuleta song about stepping away from the Church

Poignant, lovely song from David Archuleta about the moment he told his mom he was stepping away from the Church.

Thanks for sharing that HappierNow. It made me cry.

This was very powerful. Isn't music a wonderful means of expression?
Music was always my favorite part of religion. My vision of heaven is family and music.
God is Love. God is Truth. The greatest problem with organized religion is that the organization becomes god, rather than a means of serving God.

It's great to have celebrities on our side right!? Looks like I'm going to baptize my son not that I believe in the church but to appease my believing wife and that I don't think it's a bad thing to follow jesus. But this may make it harder to explain to my son probably when he's contemplating a mission that I'm not a believer.
