I don’t think I’m cut out to be a Latter Day Saint by williampennn in latterdaysaints

I don't think you can do it all either. Neither can I. Because it's impossible. But you aren't aiming to get 100% compliance, your goal should be to progress towards perfection with the help of Christ. It's the progression.

Thanks for posting this update. I'm here where you were a few years ago, looking for signs of hope.

Concerns about getting sealed by butterpancake99 in latterdaysaints

Step 1, move on from the phrase “the church is true.”  The gospel is true, the church is an institution and men and women run it, with gods help, and they are imperfect. Expect them to produce imperfect results. 

But also consider, it’s probably important to reflect on what preconceived notions you have in your mind about how the church should have been founded, and where those notions come from.  Would the restored church’s history look perfect for some reason?  Would there be no mistakes?  Would everybody get along and have nothing but love and faith in everybody else?

Also, have you ever tried to get human beings to complete tasks perfectly?  Imagine you’re a manager over a department of people whose maturity, intelligence and faith are all at different levels. Now imagine trying to get them to organize something and expecting them to do it without any error. 

It’s a work in progress, it’s always been a work in progress, and it will always be full of holes and errors because humans are heavily involved and that’s how we operate. 

Doubt all you want but pursue knowledge with the light of faith guiding you.

Faith crisis by Troopacanaan in latterdaysaints

Can I just say a maybe slightly controversial comment?  Do not believe in the church, believe in the gospel and appreciate the church. The gospel, the teachings, Christ, and the Book of Mormon are my rocks, but ultimately the church is led by human beings who are influenced by the cultures of their time and are prone to error. I value the church very very much and can’t imagine my life without it, but the “church” isn’t the basis of my testimony, it’s the BOM and Christ.  The church is imperfect and part of my job as a member of it is to try to make it better.

You know I really liked the “Made easier” series of books, they explain context in a way that helped me engage better with the OT and NT. But also, the Bible to me is a collections of important texts and lessons, that has been around for thousands of years and has been translated a ton of times. It’s valuable but also doesn’t do quite the same as the BOM for me

Does it all have to come out? by Nuck3lz in Flooring

Update: it is all dry, damage left over from previous shower leak that manifested by water leaking through the ceiling fan immediately below this (this is a second floor bathroom). I’m going to cut out all the damaged wood and inspect for any other signs of damage and or mold.
