What are some of the things about the church and gospel that you cling to that you don’t want to throw out? What’s your “taste of choice” at the buffet?

I’m not entirely sure how to answer this…Are you asking what my favorite aspects of the church (or gospel, I would differentiate these) are? Are you asking what I don’t want to choose to disbelieve? Or maybe, why I choose to stay? I’ll wait to answer so I don’t ramble incessantly in the wrong direction.

Thanks for asking for clarification. Sorry my question wasn’t clearer.

I just wondered what things you like about church that you want to hold on to, or are still of value to you?

The things I like most about church are (in no particular order):

-the sense of community (going anywhere there’s an LDS church hand having an instant support structure).

-the unique doctrines that add purpose to life (Such as pre-mortal life, post-mortal progression, humanized God)

-support and drive towards becoming a better person

-opportunities to serve/love others.

I’ll refrain from making a similare list of things I least like about the church… 🙄

Those are all good. Don’t be afraid to share the opposite side.
