Thank you so much for sharing that. “It is well” is one of my favorite hymns.

When I was LDS, I loved Amy Grant. I had her greatest hits cassette and would play it over and over again. The lyrics didn’t mean much to me and a few songs I disagreed with theologically but eventually I started see that they were ‘right’. It had an effect on me and my conversion.

Songs are powerful ways of teaching the true gospel of Grace. Keep going. How about adding “Jesus paid it all”, another one of my faves.

Praying for your friend, too.

“Jesus Paid it All” is on my list of gospels we sing on Sundays.

Peace.

Our Temple is always full and it is glorious...

Then, pray tell, tell us why some of the following queries were raised by the Mormon church poll of its members: Top Things that Interfere with Regular Temple Attendance?

What are the top things that interfere with you attending the temple regularly? (Select up to 5 choices)
* I don’t have a temple recommend.
* I don’t schedule a time to go.
* I feel uncomfortable in the temple.
* Finding a babysitter for my kids is difficult.
* My temple visits feel boring or unsatisfying.
* I don’t have family names to take to the temple.
* It takes a lot of time.
* Getting a babysitter is costly.
* Finding the time in a busy week is difficult.
* I forget.
* I don’t understand the temple.
* I don’t have anyone to go with.
* I have transportation problems getting to the temple.
* My work (employment) gets in the way.
* I am not worthy.
* I don’t have a testimony of the temple.
* My first temple experience was poor, and I don’t feel like going back.
* I have an illness or am sick.
* I’d like to go in the morning, but I can’t get out of bed.
* My Church calling gets in the way.
* Other (please specify in the comments, if you want)

Who does have a "testimony of the temple" -- and where does that "testimony" come from? Is it informed by the Book of Mormon, which barely mentions it, and only has one reference to teaching being done there...NO references whatsoever to ANY rituals like necro-baptism!!!!

What are you going to "testify about the temple?" Something like, "I testify that we're supposed to dunk dead people...and if we can't find their birth records, then let's just haul their corpses in and we'll immerse them that way"???
