My Beliefs
“As I’ve traveled all over the world, the fact that I’m a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has caused a lot of interesting questions. I’ve received so many letters and e-mails asking things like, What are the basic beliefs of Latter-Day Saints?”
My Testimony
…Some want to know how Debbie and I have been able to maintain a strong marriage — over all these years — while living in the world of show business. Others want to know how we dealt with the challenges of raising a close and happy family in such difficult times.
How do we maintain a balance between work, and family life? Well, you know it’s not always easy, but the following pages are my attempt to explain a way of life that helps answer these kinds of questions. It gives me stability in a world, and in a business, that can be uncertain, compromising, and stressful. It’s the pattern that gives me direction in my life. And, I hope that this information will help answer some of your questions.

Will I Return to Live With Jesus Christ?
I love the restoration,but have one troubling question that i am afraid to ask because it’s a very deep question.If heavenly father lives near the center of our universe,and was once like us and is a savior of another universe,then the people in the other universe ,their savior is in ours.I would be very disappointed if i got to the celestial kingdom and Jesus wasn’t there.

Is Plural Marriage Important Doctrine?
One of my childhood friends is in a plural marriage… She said it’s a principal that was originally commanded of all Mormons and she said you can’t just change doctrine because the country as a whole looks down on it. The way she put it was if worshipping Jesus became illegal would you stop? So why then stop plural marriages if it is such an important doctrine?

Do I Serve a Mission?
I am a member of the church and still have a few years before I can go [on a mission]. I’m not sure if the Lord feels that I need to go. But then again, I feel as though I need to devote my time to academics. But how do I choose between what I feel I need to do? And what Heavenly Father wants me to do?
