We have a critical role in our own salvation. Beware the traps of “That’s Not My Job” kind of thinking.

Rodger Dean Duncan, a descendant of 19th century Protestant evangelists, was baptized into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at the age of 18. Early in his career he was an award-winning journalist, editor and syndicated columnist. He has been a consultant to cabinet officers under two U.S. presidents, members of the U.S. Senate, and senior officers of major corporations. He earned a Ph.D. at Purdue University, and is founder and president of The Duncan Company, a consulting firm focused on leadership development and organizational effectiveness.

Brother Duncan has served on several stake high councils, twice as bishop, as stake president, and as stake mission president.

Brother Duncan is married to Rean Robbins-Duncan, a fifth-generation Latter-day Saint. They have four children and two grandchildren. The Duncans live in Missouri, only a short walk from Historic Liberty

What? Pressing forward with a steadfastness in faith in Christ? Isn't that what we all profess as Christians?

[D-fendr]

thanks resty.

We can't be reminded too often how Jesus taught us to treat one another.

[ and I'm going to remember the joke about the cop... ]

These doctrines are pure and they are simple.

You know... I was reading along enjoying this article then wham! Like a brick wall I hit these "pure and simple doctrines" that read like Greek to me. Nephi? Enos? Zenos? Heck, I couldn't even look up the references because I must have a defective Bible that doesn't include these books. You might want to think about having the second half of this article translated into English.

Oh well, I guess I never will find out if that water bottle got rinsed out and refilled. Just the idea of the bread crumbs floating in there gives me the woollies. Y'all have a good one and remember...... keep to your witness.

There. Now maybe we can keep this thread friendly.
