Mike and Cade discuss questions and topics that relate to their lives as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints including those regarding doctrine, faith, Christ-like discipleship, and much more.
S2 E10 | Morbid celebration, the crucifix, and Spirit World NDEs
Halloween may technically have an origin in a Christian celebration or holiday, but does it still resemble anything close to that origin? Should Christians celebrate it today? Is there any problem with the demonic and morbid decorations that are common even among Christians during this holiday? We discuss this and more during this episode. We also discuss our thoughts on the crucifix and cross, subjects of mixed feelings among members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Lastly, we discuss what we know of the spirit world and whether it conforms to themes found in near-death experiences we’ve read.

S2 E9 | Forsaking family? Church hoarding money? Automatic salvation?
The title is click-baity but those are the topics for today. What are we to interpret about Jesus’s words in Matthew 19:29 where he says those who forsake family “shall receive an hundredfold”? We also discuss the question of whether the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is using its funds in the most Christlike way. Lastly, we talk about whether there is automatic salvation in the case of those without the law. Do they get it for free? If so, wouldn’t the world be better off not having the law so everyone would be saved?

S2 E8 | Why isn’t eternal marriage in the Bible? Can the Church fall into apostasy?
If the doctrine of eternal marriages and families is as important as we treat it in the latter-day church, why isn’t it found in the Bible? And, further, why does it appear that Christ teaches against it?
Can the church, as some believe, become fallen and apostate? Could the Brethren be leading us astray led by corrupt and sinful motives?
