Better. Especially taking out
distorts loving relationshipsWhat's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

I am actually looking forward to the meeting this Saturday. In talks with my Bishop he said there are still prescriptive parts and sections, but overall it is much more principle based. I don't know as I have not seen it yet."Nobody listens to Turtle."-Turtlesigpic

Just got my new handbook. Wow, looks like 2.5 hour meeting schedule is allowed!"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

Since you used "there", I assumed you had a specific destination in mind. Otherwise, your "there" is a wandering target.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostThe direction in which we are headed. Unless you are suggesting that the Church is wandering aimlessly.

There is a specific destination in mind. And as I said, we are getting there. Slowly but surely.Originally posted by Indy Coug View PostSince you used "there", I assumed you had a specific destination in mind. Otherwise, your "there" is a wandering target.
That you are unaware of the destination speaks volumes. Better put some oil in your lamp, foolish virgin.Fitter. Happier. More Productive.
