Who We Are
This website is a
development of the outreach ministry of Messiah Lutheran Church in
Nampa, Idaho. Over the years, one of the emphases of our
congregation has been to bring the truth of God’s Word in a loving way
to members of the LDS church. We live among many Mormons; some of
us, at one time, were members of the LDS church; many of us have Mormons
who are family members, good friends, or coworkers.
We are people who
know the stresses and pressures Mormonism places on people. We know that
Mormonism leads people to eternal death, not eternal life. We also know
the wonderful difference the knowledge of being freely and fully
forgiven in Jesus can make in a person’s life. We know that because it
has made that difference in our lives. Now we also want Mormons to
experience this wonderful difference. One way we can do that is by
helping other Christians witness to Mormons. Thus this website.
The particular
witnessing approach espoused on this website was developed over the
years by our congregation and its pastor, Mark Cares. It has also been
disseminated through the book, Speaking the Truth in Love to Mormons,
accompanying videos and tracts, and workshops presented throughout the
country.
We hope you take
the time to explore this site. We pray that it will aid you in your
witnessing attempts. We would love to hear from you. Please feel free to
contact us with your questions and comments.
