https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VCJqN0Ajak Lynn Wilder wasn't born into a Mormon family. She and her husband became latter-day saints in 1977 just weeks after Mormon missionaries knocked on their door. Lynn Wilder and her family were deeply rooted in the Mormon faith for over 30 years. She attended temple services every week and spent countless hours fulfilling religious duties. She taught her children the Mormon gospel and was even a professor at Brigham Young University. Lynn knew the church culture inside and out and to her it was like family. Then one day, her 18 year old son who had become a Christian challenged her and the family to read the New Testament and everything changed. In her book Unveiling Grace, Lynn shares how her eyes and her family’s were open to the…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhaAz3SeBLA My name is Daniela Rojas and I grew up in the Mormon faith. My dad held multiple positions in the church. My mom was one of the leaders for the woman and I think she was preparing a lesson and she was reading through just the Book of Mormon and the Pearl of Great Price and noticed that there were some things that just to her didn't make sense. She finally decided after two years of what she calls “research”, she said “I have something to tell you. Your father and I have decided that we just can't attend this church anymore.” I remember just being really confused and really heartbroken. I didn't want to deal with it so I when I was 18, I moved out and I…

https://youtu.be/SIj-bN_rMK0 Michael got off that plane. We just couldn't imagine that he really had the spirit of the devil in him. They also told us that and insinuated that he was an anti-Christ and then asked us to bring him in front of the High Council the next morning and Mormonism, that would have meant, had he professed the biblical Jesus, he would have been excommunicated from the Mormon Church. Mike and I were thoroughly confused about what was going on and within a couple of days we put him on a plane and got him out of Utah. Our lives were completely in turmoil. We still had kids in Mormonism. Now we've got a Christian son. I don't know if God has to do it with everyone but he…

https://youtu.be/oYcGDUreqaU It is interesting that I feel closer to Jesus and the Bible but I'm considered deceived. Maybe some of you can put these facts on a shelf and ignore them but I couldn't and gratefully my wife couldn't either. And yes, we believe we will have a glorious relationship with God after this life. I've given some very special blessings over the years but I've come to realize that they were between me, that person and God. My journey fell into three stages. First it was to defend the church with all my heart and to make sense of these discrepancies. I assume defending the church will also be your first reaction to what I'm saying. I began watching Sean in 2007. He made me angry and defensive, especially…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBtdSzZZ-2E I was reading an article about a new essay on race and the priesthood that the church had released.  And I went to the church's website, navigated my way and found the essay and read it and there's a part in there that just really hit me. In the essay, they disavowed that dark skin is a sign of divine disfavor or curse. And I agree that that is the case except I remember as a missionary sitting in my chair doing my personal study reading the book of Mormon and in second Nephi I think it's chapter five when the Nephites and the Lamanites split off into two groups and the Lord curses the Lamanites with dark skin. And it's very clear that that's what he does and…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcBSXWSagIQ My name is Braden Patterson and I'm an ex Mormon. I was baptized at aged 8, was born into the religion. I graduated seminary with all four years and I was looking to be a good missionary. So one night after me and my girlfriend had been dating for a couple of months, I was pressured by my parents to continue teaching her about the LDS faith and to baptize her and her family eventually. She wasn't LDS, she was Catholic at the moment and one night we were sitting in the car and I started talking to her about the pre-existence - somewhere where we came before earth - and where we were going after and why temples were important that I could marry her and we go…
