What do you do when your LDS friend asks, "Have You Prayed about the Book of Mormon?" Another awkward moment because we want to show an open-mindedness, but we also know that praying about the Book of Mormon is not going to yield anything positive and might yield something negative. Let me show you how you can turn this awkward moment into a great witnessing opportunity. What does the Book of Mormon teach about: the nature of God, salvation, apostasy and restoration, second chance after death, and it's own origin?Note: Thank you! We have already reached the 400 download mark, which blows my mind. In our upcoming podcasts, we're going to take a break from the Reaching Out to Your Mormon Neighbor series. I haven't decided what I'll upload, but in the interest of time this will allow me to focus on some other endeavors.

I discuss those projects in the beginning of this podcast.

Note to those who have been listening to the podcast: This is a consolidated release of episodes 1-6. I wanted to give those who have joined in the middle a chance to catch up if they would like, as well as those who would like a full copy of this hour of the seminar to have easier access to it for sharing purposes. What do you do when your LDS friend says, "I'm a Christian Too!" What could otherwise be an awkward moment, or one answered in a way that would be off-putting to your LDS friend can become a remarkable opportunity to open up dialogue around the teachings of Jesus, who your LDS friend has just claimed is your "common ground."

This week we see what Jesus had to say about the very popular belief that there is a second chance to receive salvation after death, putting your LDS friend in a position where they either have to believe what Jesus taught or what the LDS church is teaching.
