Description
I am a former member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, (Mormons) and have since converted to Christianity. This Podcast is for my Mormon friends and The LDS Church in general to help them see how I now see the Bible and Christ versus how I used to think and how and why I made the transition. It has been a journey to get here, with lots of highs and a few lows. Going from factually knowing the LDS Church not only isn't true, but impossible to be true and finding the truth in God's word, the Bible.

Disingenuous: lacking in frankness, candor or sincerity. Slightly dishonest or not speaking the complete truth.If you leave an important fact out when trying to persuade someone to your theology, simply because they "didn't ask," this is disingenuous!Understanding this when we as Christians reach out to nonbelievers, it is important to reveal all truths, good or bad and likewise, for the nonbelievers to do so as well.This goes for an atheist, and any religion that is introducing new non biblical beliefs, especially doctrine.Listen in to the My New Life Podcast and hear how damaging being disingenuous can be.
