I’m a 23 year old, married, returned sister missionary, and I’m really struggling with garments right now. I’ve stopped wearing them consistently but I wear them a couple times a week. I’m not really looking to be lectured on how I should wear them more, I’m already mad at myself for not being faithful enough. Any advice or insight helps, I just feel like I’m slipping away.
So we all know the church changed the wording of the garment part in the interview questions from what they had changed it to in 2020, back to a more cut and dry “you have to wear them at all times”. The temple recommend q ..read more

Personally, I was able to fool bishops/SPs/MPs. But maybe I am uniquely... bad... or charismatic.

Empiricism vs faith, where you at?
Or is your faith empirical? Inquiring minds want to know ;)
Stand up and be counted.

I saw this response video from Mormonism with the Murph and I was curious to hear what his response would be to Mormon Stories recent panel on the witnesses. Full disclosure, even as a believer, I thought the witnesses were kind of silly evidence. We'll get back to that.
I listened to his entire video. I think I can largely summarize his points:
The majority of accounts mostly agree with the Church's correlated narrative. Even though Mormon Stories was entirely honest about this, multiple believing commenters accuse ExMormons of being misleading by leaving out facts. Bonus points for accusin ..read more

My husband has a coworker whose mother in law forgot her recommend and needed to buy garments. Before they would look up her recommend in the computer they pulled her off into a private room and made her pull up her shirt to demonstrate that she was wearing her garments.
I have forgotten my recommend before and have never experienced this. This seemed off to his coworker and his mother in law but was post the change to the recommended interview questions.
Does anyone have access to Beehive Clothing and the policies they are directed to follow? This has not sat well with me and am wanting to k ..read more

I don't understand how anybody knows this of the celestial kingdom and still wants to go there unless you are a power hungry overly horny dude. D&C 132

Like, I don’t find them comfortable, I can’t find clothes that work with them. They don’t remind me of my covenants because I wear them everyday, and have come to resent them just a little. It’s hot and I want to wear shorts. The markings are fine, but I think it’s weird that they’re just copies of freemasonry. I am a TBM, but the more I learn about garments, and with recent recommend update, they feel a little yucky. it feels like a way to control my body, and i feel weird. i care about my covenants, i really do. i have had some hard experiences last year that helped me love them more. But ..read more
