As a musician, I spend my days promoting my music and my videos, but nothing comes close to the feeling you get when you’re promoting your faith. I was sitting in Sunday School of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints a few years ago when the ward mission leader walked into class with a stern look on his face.
