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.

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?

Marriage Amongst Older People
I understand the rules about who can be sealed to who and under what circumstances. My intended is a widower, was married for 45 years and sealed to her. If I convert and we eventually get married I understand that we would eventually go to the Temple to be sealed. How does that work in terms of eternal marriages.
