Today I am teaching the kids ages 8-12 about faith. One of the suggestions in the manual is to tell some stories from the scriptures about somebody who showed faith. One of the stories it recommended was about the 2000 stripling warriors. I love this story. If you haven't read it in a while, I recommend it. These young men were born into families of faith. Their fathers had covenanted not to go to war and use weapons ever again and their mothers had taught them to have faith. When their fathers were in a position requiring that they might break their covenant, these young men offered to go to war so their fathers wouldn't have to fight. They went forth with courage and faith and fought with strength.
If that isn't an example of faithful families I don't know what is.

I believe in Christ
The Real Site
My Testimony Blog
The reason I started this blog was so I would have an outlet to express my testimony and share it with others. In the latest Ensign (church magazine) we were encouraged to use the internet to share the gospel, so here I am. I originally titled the blog as religionmormon.blogspot.com, so that if someone searched for religion and mormon maybe they would find my blog and learn about my views of my religion. I have tried googling it, but nothing comes up. I guess I really don't understand how google works, but either way I plan to update this every Sunday with some thought or another on my feeling about religion, gospel, Jesus Christ or other things that touch me spiritually. I don't expect that a lot of people will read it, but it will give me a chance to reflect on my week and what things were important to me spiritually that day. I am just one person and my views don't necesarily reflect the views of my church, which is why I put a link to the church website under The Real Site.
