This is a wild thought, suggested to me by a good friend, yesterday. Have ex-Mormon evangelicals ever got together and produced a DVD that is simply two hours of heart-felt testimony, one personal story after another? And would the LDS Church think it relevant to listen to such a production, if professionally and kindly crafted? In all my years here in Mormon country, I have respectfully read and heard hundreds of LDS testimonies through BoM’s given to me, LDS videos, movies, live meetings, and the many historical LDS sites that I have visited. But how many LDS in the corridor would be interested in listening to loving but “exclusive” testimonies of evangelicals. Do authentic testimonies matter?
Here are some of my thoughts on the DVD, yet here are some posts by others.
1. Margaret Young has a humorous one liner.
2. Guy Murray’s post has links to four other LDS blogs.
3. Ian Cook talks about wolves in sheep’s clothing. This post must be the source of where Snarkimus would broadstroke me with the same tactics. Hey, if I would have been caught doing a stunt like this, I probably would have been drowned in the Snake River.
4. Mormonicity talks about the evangelicals back at it and also the days of being in evangelical schools. Actually, as a Baptist minister, I have contemplated the idea of taking some classes at BYU. And would I be free to openly share my opposing views of this? Tim brings out a fundamental heart issue.
