Heart of the Matter: Show #29
Welcome to Heart of the Matter! I'm Shawn McCraney, your host. Some of you know that I wrote a book—a good read for Christians looking to understand Mormonism from an LDS perspective. It's a MUST read for all LDS. The purpose of the book is for Christians to get it, read it, and pass it on to their LDS family, friends, and neighbors. You can order it at our website: www.bornagainmormon.com. If you have $9.99, you can order it through PayPal on the site. If you don’t have the money, you can order it, and we’ll send it to you for FREE (including the postage)!
Here’s what has been said about the book: “It’s provocative” (eyebrow), “Out-spoken” (Me? Outspoken?), “It avoids the tired and rehashed anti-Mormon approach,” “theologically rigorous” (ahem). For those of you who are searching, wondering, longing, seeking—we hope you take the time to get this book in your hands.
Community Acknowledgments
We've got a few important shoutouts tonight: Want to “shout out” to all of our friends and supporters in the Utah State prisons and the prisons everywhere around the globe. God bless you! He is there. Give your will to Him! Hey, Gordon and Chris Hensile! Our thanks for watching and being great supporters of the show. And hello, to all you podcast and internet viewers out there. May all your transmissions and connections be clear and easy to hear.
Also, we are trying to keep the revival going in Utah. If you are interested in heading up a Pray for Revival group in your area, please email me—Shawn McCraney—with this desire: shawn@bornagainmormon.com. Revivals DO NOT HAPPEN without the people praying for it.
Bible Study in Santiquin
Let you all know of a Heart of the Matter recommended Bible Study. This one is going on in SANTIQUIN and is headed up by one Mickie Kelly. If you’re in the Santiquin area on Wednesday nights at 7:00 pm, there is an excellent Bible study you MUST attend: 738 East 400 South Santiquin, Utah 84655. For More Information call 801 369-7414.
Finally, tonight we’re going to introduce a new addition to the show. We’re calling it, “GAMA,” which stands for “Get A Mormon Answer.”
Get A Mormon Answer (GAMA)
Here’s how it works: I am going to present a question to Latter-day Saints ONLY. If they want to respond with their answer, they can email us, and we will read the responses on the air the following week. Please try and be concise.
Okay, this week's GAMA question is: “How did, or by what means, did Joseph Smith translate the Golden Plates?” Email us and tell us what you believe the answer is, and next week, we’ll start the show off with your responses AND the actual historical facts.
Alright, let’s petition the Lord. GO TO QUESTIONS
