Hi, I'm Dennis D

Peace and Joy in my life comes from being a Mormon!!

About Me

Love being a husband, father and grandfather. Enjoy hiking, hunting, biking and being out in the forest or mountains or desert with my family.

Why I am a Mormon

My wife of 43 years passed away 7 years ago. The most difficult trail of my life. Yet, knowing we are a family sealed in a temple; I know all of our family will be together, as a family, as husband and wife, FOREVER!

Personal Stories

How has The Book of Mormon helped you understand the purpose of life?

Over the last 29 years I have read the Book of Mormon each year. Each time new and exciting insists into why we are here and where we came from as well as life after this life comes alive. The Holy Spirit warms my heart each time I read from its pages and testifies to my soul I have a purpose in this life and the life to come. Without the knowledge of Jesus Christ from the Book of Mormon my life would be full of doubt and fear. Yet, with His example and teachings my life is full and glorious and I know death is only the gate way to an even better life.

How I live my faith

Being the missionary leader in our church helps me see the wonder changes that comes to the lives of others that start to live the gospel of Jesus Christ.
I can also be forgiven of my sins and mistakes because of Christ's Atonement.

Why do Mormons believe in the Bible?

Dennis D answered...

I love the Old and New Testament. Reading and pondering the stories of faith and courage not only helps my faith but I feel the Holy Spirit testify to my heart that they are true. Our Heavenly Father's love for his children permeate this great book. Living by the commandments and principals from the Bible make life fulfilling and brings such joy.

Do Mormons regard the Bible as Holy Scripture and the word of God?

Jesus answered...

I personally enjoy The Bible as one of my favorite books. I know it is the word of The Lord. As I read the bible, I also tried to study where it came from. Before joining the church, I did believe that the bible was the word of God. But why? I believed in it before reading it... Well, the reason why I know, is because I ask God and He answered me. There is no other way. I wasn't there when it was translated, so how can I know? Some people just believe that it is true because everybody else says so. Heavenly Father can answer our prayers, why don't we ask Him?
