This is a conversation between Evangelical Christians and Latter Day Saints. We discuss our differences so that we might find common ground. The purpose of this blog is not for Evangelicals to try and convert Mormons, nor for Mormons to convert Evangelicals. Attacks on the history of the LDS church or the life and character of Joseph Smith, although many may find interesting, will not be the focus of this blog.
The blog was started by Tim(Dando), an Evangelical Christian, and C.John an active Latter Day Saint. C. John has since dropped out of the conversation and no committed LDS has been found to replace him as a co-author. A few other LDS have authored several posting and many others actively comment. The opinions of all who participate should be considered their own, and not necessarily representational of all in their respective faith traditions.
To read a summation of Tim’s exposure to the LDS faith, read the “Me & Mormons” series found here.

I have a question and I was hoping to find the answer on your “about” page…..
All I want to know is what the picture on the top of the blog represents. I think it’s neat and i’m sure with a story behind it its even neater (is that even a word?)
thanks steph
Yes, you can find more about the picture at this link. Glad you find it interesting.
I’m trying to locate an old friend and his family who were part of the Mormon Church in Westchester CA and have since moved, I have not seen for about 20 years.
Are there any radio stations or tv programs for the Mormon religion where I can call in and speak on the air to find my friend.
Hi!! I started a new blog about a month ago here at WordPress that provides free Book of Mormon downloads in 3 formats: PDF, a single page HTML file, and an executable for windows. My blog is http://www.freebookofmormon.wordpress.com. There are also free Book of Mormon pictures and a free LDS Library. If you like what you see please add me to your blogroll and pass the link around. Steffielynn over at mormonsrock referred me to your blog. Thank you.
Late perhaps for Catari but not for others.
If you call the LDS Membership Records office in SLC, UT they will contact your lost Member and give them your contact information.
It’s amazingly easy. They know where everyone is.
You can have your friend back within the hour.
[...] Tim Dando blogs on the site LDS & Evangelical Conversations as the evangelical Christian in the conversation. He thinks homosexual marriage will remain a decisive issue in California because of the proposed amendment to the state’s constitution to define marriage as a union between a man and a woman. He’s unconvinced, however, that laws about homosexuality will be the source of social change: Whether or not any kind of marriage amendment is passed on the state or national level, I’m confident those are short term stop gaps and we’ll eventually be overturned by a younger generation. As we move forward I think what’s important for us is to be vigilant in emphasizing what we are for rather than what we are against (grace and redemption at the top of the list). We should avoid making sex a political issue and making our churches appear to be voting blocks. [...]
