5 Things This Mormon Wishes You Knew

I'm a Mormon.

It’s not something I talk about much, which is strange because my faith is actually a huge part of my life. I think the main reason is because I don’t like to feel judged, and I don’t want anyone else to assume I’m judging them. Religion is a very sacred and personal thing to most people, enough so that the mere mention of the word “religion” is bound to offend someone, or at least initiate a case of the cold sweats (I’m kind of a sweaty person anyway, but uncomfortable religious talk DEFINITELY gives me armpit tacos). I’m also pretty private (yes, blogging propels me far outside my comfort zone), and I’m typically not prone to talking about my personal life unless people ask.

But I’ve started to realize that a lot of my friends and family are actually pretty curious about Mormons, but are too afraid to ask.

What do Mormons believe? Do we worship Jesus Christ or Joseph Smith? Why do we wear funny underwear?!
