Hi, I'm Trevor.

I live in Utah and I design web applications. I'm a Mormon.

About Me

I am a designer and web developer living in Utah state. I started out doing computer tech support but I started a new career as a web designer and now I design and implement user experiences on mobile phones.

Why I am a Mormon

God has guided me in my life from day one. I know I'm not perfect but he has blessed me and surrounded me with people who love God and serve Him with all their hearts. Everything I have, from my talents, to my beautiful baby daughter all came from God. He created this beautiful Earth for me to enjoy and he has blessed me with creativity and imagination that bless me in my work every day. My faith means everything to me.

Personal Stories

Why do Mormons go on missions?

A mission is a time for a young man or woman to develop their own faith in God, but also to share the good news they have felt from the Gospel with others. I went to Louisiana for my mission and spent two years sharing the true Gospel of Jesus Christ with many people who already had a belief in Him. What I taught them and shared with them was the good feelings that come from living the Gospel and keeping the commandments. I helped them move past a simple commitment and learn how to live the Gospel each day of their life. Missionaries can change people's lives by sharing the Gospel with others.

How has the Book of Mormon brought you closer to God?

The scriptures are full of rich stories that teach life lessons and show the power and love of God for His children here on Earth. The Book of Mormon is full of examples of how to navigate this complicated world and build faith in God. He can help us and heal us, even in this world of confusion and unrest. Political and social challenges have occurred all throughout time and the Book of Mormon has helped me find ways to deal with those challenges and strengthen my family against the evil out in the world.

How I live my faith

I've been a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints all my life, but I had my own moments where I became converted to the Gospel and made my own decision what I would believe about God and my relationship with him. My ancestors were not all members of the church and I am doing my best to build on the legacy my parents and grand-parents have built for me.

What do Mormons believe about family?

Trevor. answered...

We believe that families are the fundamental organization of society and in the family we learn life's most valuable lessons. Loving family members can be great examples for us to follow, or they can provide us with experiences that will allow us to make our own family better. We believe that God formed the first family and intends the family to be the place for us to learn about life and his Plan for each of us.

The family is a key component to support us in God's plan for gaining immortality and eternal life. All of God's children (all the inhabitants that lived, are living, and will live on Earth) are inseperably connected to each other, both (physically) by our Earthly families and (spiritually) by our Heavenly Father.

Families help us to understand our divine heritage. In this, life takes on purpose and meaning. Our immortal spirits were created by our Heavenly Father before Earthly existance, and we are directly connected to Him in this way. As a spiritual family, our collective purpose on Earth is to follow the commandments of God that lead us to live in heaven with Him again.

Our spirits need to progress, learn, and grow. In order to achieve that, Earthly existance was created as our test. Our Heavenly Father knew that being exposed to opposing forces on Earth was the only way for us to gain knowledge and wisdom.

However, we will not always choose righteousness, and so our Savior, Jesus Christ, is that great mediator to pay the debt of our mistakes. He is the only way by which we can be saved from our sins and transgressions. He is the ultimate example by which direction we need to live our lives. With the support of our earthly kin, we can learn from each other, serve each other, and strengthen our mortal weaknesses by being disciples of Christ. Our families are a gift from God, and we can be together forever.

Mormons believe Jesus Christ is their Savior. Why do we need a Savior?

Meaghan answered...

Have you ever met a perfect person? I doubt it. Why? Because everyone makes mistakes. When you make a mistake or are confused on what you should do, you want someone to help you, right? We all need someone to help us. We all need a Savior. We always hear that Jesus Christ saved us, but what does that truly mean? It not only means that he suffered and died for you personally, it means that he lived and lives for us too. He wants to help us. Jesus Christ is the only one who underestands everything that we go through. He not only wants to make up for the mistakes we make, but he wants to carry our burdens too. All we need to do is let him carry our burdens. Everyone faces personal challenges and Jesus is there to help. Everyone makes a mistake qa some point in life too. The beauty of having a Savior, is the fact that we can be forgiven. Sometimes our hands get dirty, but they can always be washed clean.
