Everyone has awkward moments—Mormons are no different—but the peculiar situations we get ourselves into are. Whether your phone goes off during the sacrament or you start belting out the next verse of a hymn too early, there are definitely some awkward moments that are uniquely Mormon. Here are just a few:
It was late, and my wife and I were getting ready to go to sleep. I rolled over and looked at her.
Some wives practically carry their husbands to the gym—but one husband goes to the gym so he can carry his wife.
I thought of the many church signs I’ve passed through my years on five-lane highways and rural roads barely big enough for the squirrels and me. Are all those signs really telling the truth?
