The story to be shared today may be especially triggering (more so than other past episodes) for some Active Believing Mormons. If you decide to share this episode with someone who actively believes the doctrines taught by the LDS church there is a possibility of experiencing a backfire effect, or in other words it may […]

As many folks pray to God about tithing in the Church and make the decision that tithing for them should be paid on surplus, many of these members worry about the unrighteous judgement of a local leader who sees the surplus tithing as not acceptable.

We know that Elder Eyring in the year 2000 was paid roughly $90k and that in 2014 all top male leaders were informed that they were having their “base living allowance” increased from $116,400 to $120k.

What is Tithing? Many love to jump in here and state their definition and unknowingly impose it on others.

Rock shares with some of his views: his testimony of the gospel restored through the Prophet Joseph Smith along with his struggle at times with current Church Policy and Doctrine including such things as tithing, sealings as marriage, and others.
