Bearing My Testimony to the Cast of the 'Book of Mormon' Musical

“If they only knew what the Book of Mormon is really about.”

I remember the thought running through my mind back in 2011 when “The Book of Mormon” musical was first released.

The irreverent musical tells the story of two missionaries for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Uganda. While profane, it's also been popular, winning nine Tony Awards and being performed worldwide.

As a member of the LDS Church, I wasn't exactly offended by the production. I simply wished for the opportunity to tell those involved what I know to be the truth.

I never imagined the opportunity would present itself on my full-time mission.
