Can a Mormon be a Christian? How does that work? That's the idea behind this personal book by Robert Starling, a lifelong member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who grew up in the heart of the Bible Belt. Some folks there (and elsewhere) believe that Mormons ar...e members of a non-Christian cult . Robert's purpose for this book is not to convert anyone, but to give his strong reasons to dispel that misconception. As a child of converts to Mormonism whose uncle is a retired Methodist pastor, Robert has a unique perspective to share with Mormons and non-Mormons alike. He attended a Baptist vacation Bible school as a child (and so did his own children) and his best friend in college at Georgia Tech was the president of the Catholic student Newman Club. Having resided in Utah for twenty years where he worked as a media producer for the LDS Church at its worldwide headquarters, Robert has lived really inside Mormonism for decades. While Robert is not an official spokesman for the LDS Church, he has trained local church leaders in how to work with news media. He's been active in defending his faith from critics (he's been sued by them twice for a total of $30 million) and sharing his knowledge with anyone interested in learning what Mormons really believe. For instance: Do Mormons believe in a different Jesus? What do Mormons believe about the Trinity? How are Mormons saved ? Do Mormons baptize dead people? Is there only one true church ? What happens in Mormon temples? Do Mormons wear magic underwear ? Do Mormons worship Joseph Smith? Is the Bible God's word for Mormons? Do Mormons want to become like God? What kind of evidences does Robert use to make his case? Whether you're a Mormon or not, you'll be surprised. Take a look inside and find out! (and be sure to read the introduction)
