A doe-eyed 19-year-old gets off of a flight from Utah having landed in Tallahassee. This young man has arrived in a strange city to begin his first day as a Mormon missionary. Having said goodbye to his family and friends, he has been sent to Tallahassee to share the message with strangers young and old of the Mormon faith. As apprehensive as this young man might feel about beginning this new chapter in his walk with the Mormon faith, his missionary work probably couldn’t come at a better time when people are more aware of the Mormon faith than ever before.
Media outlets all over the country have begun referring to this period in time as the “Mormon Moment.”
