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.

Interest in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
I wish to become Mormon, but I am not sure how. It’s not like I can just walk in a church and ask to join.

An Expression of Concern About the LDS Faith
After much study and reading into your faith LDS I have come to a conclusion…. NO amount of good works will get you to heaven…. Jesus was the ONLY man who was perfect and we are all sinners… And Joseph Smith is a false prophet… I hope you will know the truth. In Jesus name I pray .

Why Do You Claim Your Church is the True Church?
What about families who are good, loving, charitable, and God-fearing, but not Mormon? Why would God not let non-Mormon families be together forever? Aren’t we all important to God?

Are People of African Descent (or Persons of Color) allowed in Mormon Church?
I am curious over the media attention that was brought to Mormonism over people of African descent (or people of color) not being allowed into the Mormon church. Could you explain how this came about and what Mormonism does say on racial issues?

Why No Crosses on LDS Buildings?
“The lives of our people must become the only meaningful expression of our faith. And because our savior lives, we do not use the symbol of his death as the symbol of our faith…”
