I'm a convert to the LDS church of 18 years now (at the time of this writing) from the Catholic Church. I still admire the Catholic church as it prepared me well for the LDS doctrine - concepts such as authority, order and reverence - a universal doctrine - all made sense to me.
I always wanted to know the truth, and was baptized at age 18 the same week I shipped out for the US Navy.
Later I served a mission in the Baton Rouge Louisiana Mission from 2000-2002. It was an amazing time.
Now I'm a father working on becoming a doctor of psychology and rather enjoying myself with our three children and my wife. For now I blog on the LDS doctrines here and there in this blog.
I hope you enjoy.
