Beautiful Christmas Feet!
”How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace…that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!” – Isaiah 52:7

Although the site includes a disclaimer that things “should not necessarily be viewed as official statements of The Church“, they certainly could not have designed it to look any more official (and dare I venture, more than a tad boring) than they have. However, I give them a pass. Blogs are living, breathing, continually morphing and developing offspring. I should know. My baby’s undergone several reconstructive surgeries already in her brief lifetime, and there will undeniably be more.
As first-time parents, PA is typically feeling overprotective and hiding their newborn’s comment boxes. But, one step at a time. There’s always room for improvement and growth. For now, the most important thing is that they have given birth to a healthy bouncing blog. A Hearty Congratulations All Around!
MoSop extends her official welcome to NewsRoom Blog. I have no doubt they will become an important contributor to Religious conversation in the global Blog-o-sphere community. I look forward to watching the direction and subject matter of their posts, and resulting [monitored] conversations [hint hint].

What were you thinking?! You must have been temporarily impaired. It could happen. After all, you were having such a good time celebrating your recent “Big Love” Executive Producer success, maybe it was just too easy to lose track of the refills. Alcohol does that to people. Open mouth – drink booze – insert foot.
I’d like to offer some sort of excuse for you, because quite frankly your latest comments calling Mormon’s “un-American” seem awfully out of character. Of course, Continue reading →
A very historic and sacred event in history was commemorated this weekend. In June 1978 the Priesthood was extended to “every worthy male” member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
I remember that prophetic day. I would have been 12 years old. My mother picked me up from school and told me that it had just been announced that day that “all worthy male” members of the church could be ordained to the Priesthood. I specifically thought of the large congregations of faithful Latter-day Saint members in Africa who had been praying fervently for this day. I remember feeling goosebumps from head to toe. I knew that I was now a living witness of this life-changing event.
I add my witness. I firmly believe this was a revelation coming directly from Jesus Christ to His living prophet on earth, at that time Spencer W. Kimball. President Kimball then declared these prophetic words to every child of God upon the earth. I felt the Holy Spirit confirm this to my soul. It was a day of miracles that I will never forget.
Heaven opened every door, and calls for all to enter in.
I rejoice in the beauty of the Gospel.
We are united in our diversity and strength as brothers and sisters!
SALT LAKE CITY 9 June 2008 Close to 3,000 people packed the Salt Lake Tabernacle last night to celebrate the 30th anniversary of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ action in June 1978 to extend its lay priesthood to men of all races.
Church leaders and members, including many who are African American, spoke to those attending the gathering. The celebration also featured musical selections from a choir led by Mormon Tabernacle Choir music director, Mack Wilberg, and soloist Alex Boye.
I have been seeing a large amount of similar questions cropping up all over the world wide web. You find them on Blogs, chat-rooms, answer sites, information networks and commentary trails on any given day: “Who are the Mormons?” “Do you know any Mormons?” “How many Mormons are there?” “Where do Mormons live?” “What do Mormons believe?”…..and so forth.
As a devout member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, a “Mormon”, I am always happy to answer these questions, share my beliefs or to offer clarification. I am pleased to share a fresh voice here who has done a lovely job addressing the “Mormon Questions”. I send kudos to this anonymous Scotsman for his creative video. Enjoy!
