In reply to Kivette. Thanks for reading! I feel like the Book of Mormon has been applying more and more, too. I'm so grateful for ancient and living prophets who give examples and antedotes against following down the wrong paths!

Totally loved your blog today! It is a testimony of why they did the Book of Mormon this year. It always seems to have parallels to the here and now happening in the world. Even more do we need to have the remembrance of who to look to and what we can do to follow Christ. Thx for always sharing thoughts and resources.

Delisa…. wow just a few minutes before I read your blog I was trying to have some family members understand that the post about Brigham Young being a racist where they quoted Journal of Discourses Book 10 page110 out of context. I shared with them the Statement The Church has added to the introduction that the Journal of Discourses is not what the Church Doctrine Is. I shared the paragraph just above on page 110 where Brigham speaks of his distaste for slavery as well as Abolitionist. That all men are created equal. Then I asked them to also read on the web ChurchOfJesusChrist.org on Race and Slavery the Chuches admission of mistakes by early members in the 1800’s. Who followed social thought of the time regarding Blacks being cursed. Boy I felt I was a missionary in enemy territory but couldn’t stand by any longer keeping quiet.
