Thank you Alas. That is very helpful advice.

Not a friend poster but I love this community. Merry Christmas everyone!

Did you actually, in fact, promise your wife before you got married that you would attend church and go to the temple? Or did you marry her in the temple and the expectations are that you would do those things because you both were believers?

...BTW, if you want to try this breathing technique, download a free app called Paced Breathing and set the inhale and exhale times to 5.5 seconds, with little or no pause at the top and the bottom.... Thanks for sharing your experiences here Hagoth. I'm going to check out the app and book. Looks ...

My experience with cannabis is similar to yours, Stealth. I've tried it about half a dozen times and there's just no spark. I do get tired and can see how it could help with sleep. I don't care for a lot of alcohol either. A small glass of wine on occasion is relaxing but I don't need or want ...

Barefoot Wines and Oreo Cookies are teaming up to make a wine. This might represent a good first wine for Mormons since it is unlikely anyone will be able to make a wine from hard wheat food storage. https://www.abc4.com/news/cookie-flavored-wine-coming-soon-from-oreo-barefoot-wine/ Interesting ...

I was impressed with Rusty Bowers until he said that if Trump were running against Biden again, he would vote for Trump. Even after Trump thoroughly bullied him and threatened him, Bowers will still vote for Trump again. Until Bowers said that, I thought he was very honorable. -- Wndr. It's seems ...

I finished watching this last night and ended up crying. The ending is so sad because the people continue to worship and revere a predator. The recording of him "training" his wives is absolutely disgusting! But more personally, I recognize the way I (we) were trained to say yes to things that are ...

In my first wine-drinking attempt, I purchased a bottle of white wine from the grocery store. It tasted like paint thinner. I've since grown more accustomed to the taste and recommend trying Barefoot wine, especially red wines. Also, St Chapelle huckleberry wine is lovely. I'm not a regular drinker ...

That is so cool! What an opportunity to have been a part of that. Can't wait to hear more.

....I spent quite a bit of time looking for ways to reproduce the live guided experience with YouTube videos (mostly crap), online subscriptions (much better but not quite what I experienced in the live session) and finally a fairly expensive online course (which, halleluiah, almost fully ...

Very interested!! Sending you an email.

I wanted to do one, but I don't know the time of my birth and my birth certificate doesn't show it. I'm left to deal with a generic reading. My pat blessing was.... well.... I can't remember

This topic might seem more appropriate in the Coffee Shop, but the thing I want to stress is the failure of Mormonism, and religion in general, to deliver on direct personal experience. This simple breathing trick can give you a more powerful baptism by fire than sitting through a lifetime of ...

Bishop Graey, Thank you for taking on such an intensive position and serving your Mormon community with such love and awesomeness. You are already making a significant difference for members just by being you. I wish you the best as you continue forward.

The church speaks for god and acts on his behalf. Since God is actually invisible and silent, it is pretty easy to replace god with the church, which is visible, physical, and vocal. The church demands your obedience, your time and talents, and your will. It asks you to dissolve your boundaries to ...

It is so difficult to make the decision to divorce. I left my husband of 30 years 2 years ago. Very similar to your situation, we just didn't have enough points of connection, including the church, and all of the other unresolved issues 30 years of marriage can bring. I understand the pain that ...
