I was inspired by this teacher who is not a member of my church, but is teaching things that are helpful to me and in fact timely. I have been trying to work on more thoughtful prayers lately and feel grateful that I have this chance to learn more about prayer from the Bible.
Though it is a little weird to me in a way. Somehow part of me wonders is this o.k? To learn these truths from a different church than mine? It's a little tiny bit uncomfortable but I also like it. I like the people I have met there and everyone has welcomed me in, even knowing that I am a Mormon. I think it will be a good thing.

There is plenty of truth out there...and I think getting it from a different perspective can be kinda cool sometimes! :) Especially with something like prayer, where we do it so often, and get so used to being in a certain mindset to do it. A little new perspective can be a great thing. :)
I think it is great! And I think you will be a good example to those around you of what a "Mormon" is and that you do study and read the Bible along side of the BOM. Awesome!
What a great opportunity. I love that our church accepts all truth wherever it may be found. I hope this class continues to be such a great help to you. You will also in turn be able to share with others in the Christian community how you being LDS and them Chirstians are more alike then are different in beliefs. Thanks for sharing.
I love it. Why only let the LDS hear the Wisdom of Shanda? That's just plain selfish. You can't hide that under a bushel... And you can always pull out the Johnny Cash movie quotes - Johnny builds bridges, my friend. Miss you guys!
