Mormonism

Who is in spiritual authority over S.E. Idaho?

An LDS bishop oversees his local congregation (and geographical ward) – right?

An LDS stake president oversees several congregations – right?  Or how many, usually?

So what is the next category of oversight?  LDS temple district?

Who has the LDS spiritual authority over most of the geographical boundary of S.E. Idaho?  If it is one of the twelve LDS apostles, who would this be?

I am highly interested at the moment.

Is McCain a fundamentalist?

“Our message will be we all share common conservative principles,” he said. “Fundamental conservative political philosophy, which has been my record.”

I am laughing in my chair tonight over McCain’s choice of words today in the media.  I will remember this statement.

There is nothing more important than holding to the fundamentals.

Especially when it comes to God and His gospel.

Mormon/Evangelical Conversation (Bridging The Divide), Part two

Book #2 just came in the mail, today.

Bridging The Divide: The Continual Conversation Between a Mormon and an Evangelical (Monkfish, 2007)

I will try to keep “Dialogue” with book #1, Claiming Christ, and “Conversation” with book #2, Bridging the Divide.

How does that sound?

And I will continue to work on these two threads my thoughts on these two books.  But then I will probably add more new thoughts and questions in additional posts.  What do you think?

I just read this in the introduction of Bridging The Divide:

They want to avoid sidestepping the hard questions that still keep each community from believing that the other has the fullness of Gospel (xiii).

We shall see in this book.

Sometimes true, tender love does confront.  Doesn’t it?
