How Can I Teach My Children Not to Watch Pg-13 Rated Movies? Dear Gramps, I am having a hard time teaching my children that PG-13 movies aren’t appropriate material for them just because everyone else goes to see them. When is the Mormon Church going to take a stand...

Dear Gramps, I heard on the radio this morning a preacher quote Jeremiah and said that the bible is all we need for salvation. We don’t need any more revelation to get to heaven. Although that is sorta kinda true, he doesn’t understand the true concept of heaven and...
