Did Jesus turn up? Was he in a suit? Can someone provide a Cliff notes?

Here’s the thing. The Church and it’s leaders aren’t the barrier. Bishop one-on-one worthiness interviews with minors can be stopped regardless of any stance on it the leaderships of the Church takes. The problem lies with those parents who allow their children to attend these interviews. They can stop them 100% right now by just refusing to let their own children be subjected to the sexually explicit questioning of an unrelated adult male. Once enough parents take that decision, the worthiness interviews are over.

Link it to a secession in tithing payments and callings service and suddenly you have real pressure being brought to bear.

It’s a five hour video, at what point in the five hours does Jesus show up?

It's just shy of 1 hour.

Ihaq there's no possible way I can do justice to tonight's event with a synopsis and even if I tried, it wouldn't be doing justice to Sam Young. I don't believe there's anyway for a viewer to appreciate the full impact unless they start at the very beginning and watch it through. That's why I said previously to watch it start to finish.

I'm still processing it myself.

Saturday, August 18, is the final event in the Hunger Strike and Spotlight action. Instead of meeting for Temple Side Chat, Sam has invited survivors and others to gather at City Creek Park for a Samaritan's Feast. Food for 150 people and 500 pastries from a local French bakery.

Tomorrow is Day 22 of the hunger strike and Sunday will be his last day, Day 23 when he returns home.

If you are interested, take a look at Friday's video of the Temple Side Chat with Jesus. If you don't want to watch the entire hour, go in about mid-way (39:30-ish) and look for Lisa, a blonde woman sitting in the chair dressed in all white and LISTEN to her powerful rebuke of the church. I don't think you'll regret it or forget it!

Washing people's feet, jumped the shark.
