I know I have fallen off the face of the earth, as far as blogging is concerned anyway, and I will provide a recap of what has been going on but first I wanted to share this video that my good friend Wendy forwarded me.

The girl representing the Church on this panel was just amazing - I could only hope that I would be able to express myself and speak to questions posed to me about the church even half as eloquently as Rachel Esplin did. The video is just over 21 minutes but well worth the time to watch. Her answers actually clarified some things for me that I didn't even realize I was fuzzy on.

Wow, she is a seriously impressive young woman. I can't imagine being on a panel like that and being so articulate, confident yet humble, and concise. I teared up when she talked about her relationship with the Savior. This was excellent, thanks Raquel.
What an opportunity for this young woman to explain what is by her own words at the very core of who she is. I am grateful for her and others who are helping the world to understand better what Mormons are all about. I believe that most people, once they understand what we believe, will accept it and the fear and strangeness that seems to be present will melt away.
