His work and His glory

For behold, this is my work and my glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man. - Moses 1:39

I don't believe in christian babies. I believe in babies, i believe in christians, but a baby doesn't have the agency and cognitive abilities required to chose and/or live a faith. There's babies of christian parents, of course, as well as babies that have been introduced into the system that is the christian church, but that does not make them christian yet.

Long story short, i did not hit a christian baby into the stratosphere, officer.

@lesmandposting I wasn't gonna say it but I'm glad you said it because I was thinking this also

[loves-em]

The Problem™ with playing D&D on Sunday evenings with my friends is, as a DM, that often after welcoming everyone to the session, the Sunday school teacher in me wants to ask one of them to say the opening prayer. These are the most atheist people in my life.

"Alright guys, I'm glad you could all make it, and I'm so hyped to see what you come up with today. Is everyone ready? Who wants to say the op- I mean, let's get right into it!" is uncomfortably common.

"Um actually you're not a real Christian because mormons believe in a different Jesus." ok that's fine. You can't use any of these paintings bc they're actually of my Jesus and not yours.

[loves-em]

I've got a church voice line™

It's something I say very frequently in Sunday school lessons or in talks, or just when talking to other people in general. Usually when talking about charity. Here goes.

Our Heavenly Father is the most average parent ever and we're all His most average kids, who are siblings. Siblings argue all the time about silly silly things. But what ultimately makes a parent the happiest is when their kids get along. I've got a younger brother, and in younger years he was my biggest hater. He'd scratch and bite and hit me when upset. Nowadays he's become very chill and we get along great, I still help him with homework and with all the struggles a teenager could have. I can feel my mother's radiating appreciation for my help in his life, and she's so happy we now get along well.

Our Heavenly Father wants us to get along. He wants us to help one another, to care, to mourn, to comfort. He wants us to swallow our pride, and to be humble peacemakers among our siblings. He gets the same joy as our earthly parents do if we get along with our siblings.

Now, I don't have kids, and won't for a while. But I've got cats whom I hate to see fighting and hurting one another. I've got hobbies and various spaces I'm in where I'm out in a position of caring for other groups, and I hate to see them fight. It's not the same, but it helps me understand the loving, personable, and parental nature of God.

Growing up LDS, I generally avoid swearing and will use the occasional ‘dang’ or ‘heck.’ But when I went to college in Provo, Utah, I was surprised and amused at all the near swears being commonly used.

I even tried to start a new one, ‘son of a pioneer,’ but it didn’t catch on, I think because it was too long and because pioneers are revered in Utah like the LDS version of Catholic saints.

Can you imagine going to heaven and God, the most powerful being, says, “I’m so glad you didn’t swear, you son of a biscuit. Get the fetch in here!” Lol, I think I’d lose some respect.

[brothermouse]

Me when I see someone wish painful death and total eradication of all Mormons: Well golly, they seem awful upset. I'd better pray that they find peace in their hearts.

Me when my phone auto corrects "Deseret" to "dessert" or "desert": What is this hate crime? Why hast thou thrown in with the Prince of Darkness and all his odious ilk? When will my people be free?

incredibly based speaker yesterday informed us that "the importance of the first vision isn't that God has a body, it's that He responds to and cares for His teenage children in crisis"

[bornofgoodlyparentsandalsotrans]

Alright Tumblrstake, I’m sorry to keep doing this, but I need your wisdom again:

What are some fun ways I can decorate the walls of our nursery? I’ve been a nursery leader for a few years, and despite my longing to fix the spartan atmosphere, it still looks like this:

One thought I had was a banner of some regularly-used visual aids attached to a string or ribbon with clips. Or maybe arranged on the board using magnets — anything that could easily be taken down temporarily to use in a lesson. But I still have a lot of wall space to work with.

Other considerations:

Nothing that will shatter if it gets knocked off the wall

No words — we share the building with a Spanish ward (and it’s not like the kids can read them anyway)

I’m crafty, and I’m in possession of a Cricut, a letter-sized laminator, and a frankly absurd amount of colorful cardstock.
