@BagleyKSLsports Obviously I prefer AJ, but assuming the Wizards take him, I seriously wouldn't complain about Petersen, Boozer, or Wilson. All look like franchise players. I'm stoked either way!

It has to be Dybantsa or Boozer at No. 2 for the Jazz, right?

@CoachMarkPope Happy Mother's Day, Coach! Cougar nation is cheering you on in Lexington.

@DavidDJJames Go Jazz! It's hard to decide between Boozer or Petersen, but I think we should snag Petersen.

@TrentMano Dude I just got back from NYC a few weeks ago. I was just wondering why we don't have any authentic New York pizza out west. I had no idea about this. So excited. Thank you for sharing!

This kinda blows my mind. Multiple locations in NY, first spot outside of the state is Utah.
Will be a regular spot for me.
Big lines for opening day, Kevin Love behind the counter, serving up slices.

I converted from Catholicism to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints 2 years ago, and I have nothing but love for my Catholic roots. I don't dwell on faults, but the strengths and wisdom I learnt. Gratitude for my past and my future.

I left Catholicism as a teenager. I pretty much just moved on from it but I felt traumatized by losing God and Christ. I didnt believe it was true and that's what hurt so much. It felt like a betrayal. I never ever attacked anyone for their faith though and always stayed hoping God was real and dualism was real.

Tomorrow I get to speak to a young single adult institute class about defending the family. I’ve done some podcasts, but this is the first time I’ve been invited as an in-person guest speaker.

I had no idea LDS members would balk at this very basic, central belief about hell, heaven, and who goes where.
Yes, all Christians believe in hell and that we deserve to go there. That’s the bad news. The good news is, through Christ, we can be saved from hell and instead spend eternity with him. This is not accomplished through ordinances, church membership, or claims of apostolic succession, but through Jesus’s sacrifice alone. The good news is that there is nothing you can or must do to earn your way into God’s Presence. Rather, Jesus’s blood is sufficient in making us clean and acceptable before God.
You are free to believe that access to eternity with Jesus can only be accomplished through following LDS ordinances, and that non-LDS members will only have a degree of glory (but not God’s presence) in the afterlife. It’s just not a Christian belief.
For a believer in Christ, there is nothing good about the news that we non-Mormons will live forever in a “better place” but without the presence of Jesus. That is not heaven. Jesus is the prize! And our place with Him is secured by grace through faith in Him. Hallelujah!

@DiscipleFidei I think regardless of our beliefs we all can agree that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. Love and peace to all!

#Mormonism sells a comforting lie: that everyone you love will make it, no matter what they believe.
The Bible doesn’t say that. Scripture is clear. Not all are saved. Truth divides. Even families will be separated by it.
The LDS system softens that reality because it’s easier to attract people with emotional promises than with hard truth. (This is why you see Jacob Hansen and others appeal to emotions) It replaces repentance and faith with a structured path that guarantees reunion, no matter the cost to biblical doctrine.
That isn’t restoration at all.
It trades truth for comfort and calls it revelation.
Trades truth for damnation.

If you’re a Latter-day Saint, you should definitely watch this.
What a fantastic use of AI.

Here we go. I want you to know this: I'm going to be posting occasionally about my faith as a Latter-day Saint. I have a firm testimony of the Book of Mormon from a personal witness, but it's understandable if people have questions about its veracity. Note that the first several chapters of the Book of Mormon take place in 600 BC Jerusalem. The question at hand: how could Joseph Smith have gotten SO MUCH RIGHT about that culture, namesakes, locations, politics, language, of military practices from pre-exile Judah if he conjured the Book of Mormon from whole cloth in 1830?! We defer, of course, to the greatest LDS scholar and apologist: Hugh Nibley:

@ScottWalker Exactly! Thank you. I wish every American shared this important sentiment.

We can disagree on issues but anyone who agrees with this guy is evil. It’s not about right or left. It’s about right or wrong. Violence is wrong.

There is no excuse for political violence. Ever. I condemn this unequivocally — and for the sake of our democracy and our decency, I hope we all do. Grateful that everyone is safe.

I spoke at the America First Correspondent’s Dinner shortly after the news about the shooting of at the official WHCA dinner.
Let me be CLEAR:
Whether you are Democrat or Republican, there is NO PLACE for political violence in the United States of America!

@SenFettermanPA Glad you’re safe, Senator. I hope regardless of what political side we’re on we can all work together in peace.

Gisele and I are safe and back home.
We’re incredibly grateful for law enforcement and their quick reaction this evening.
