Meet Some Mormons
Have you ever met a Mormon? We've collected stories from some members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) and posted them. Come meet a Mormon!
Q: Do you really think that God speaks to us today?
A: We sure do. We believe He speaks to us through direct personal revelation (usually through prayer, scripture study, and church attendance) as well as through a living prophet. A person can receive revelation about personal issues--what to study in school, where to live, when/whom to marry, etc. God reveals to individuals things that help their personal lives.
Besides revealing things to individuals personally, God has followed a pattern throughout time of revealing important truths to prophets. Prophets preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and lead Christ's church through revelation. Just as Christ called prophets and apostles while on earth, He has called men to serve as prophets and apostles in our time.
One of the best ways to follow Christ is to listen to and follow His chosen prophets and apostles: This Saturday and Sunday is the 178th Semiannual General Conference of Christ's church. At this conference, the modern-day prophet, Thomas S. Monson, will address the world, as will the twelve apostles and other church leaders.
Their talks represent what the Lord wants to teach us at this time.
