Thanks for following along with this journey. What would you recommend looking at next?

I and my team did the woodwork on this temple. I was there for 2 years and the happy smiles were always present while we labored through the project. I didn’t work a single day without reflecting on how dedicated those pioneers were who built the building originally. Many of their ancestor’s worked on this renovation with us. We will keep u in our prayers

To all LDS that read this "i love you all"!! Beautiful people, beautiful temples, and just wonderful people! God bless you!!

Lifelong member here, 76 years old. Your openness about your spiritual journey brings tears to my eyes. I applaud your caution. It speaks well of the seriousness you bring to the issue. Your positive experiences with the members are fairly typical, but we are far from perfect. As I look around my current neighborhood in Utah, I'm amazed at the goodness of my neighbors. However, they are not the source of my conviction that the Restoration really happened, they are just one wonderful side effect of it. The more I study the scriptures, especially with the help of faithful scholars who are all over the internet, the more I am astonished at its scope and grandeur. May the Lord continue to lead you in your spiritual journey. Much love.

David please please listen to Elder Hollands talk "REMEMBER LOT'S WIFE". Please to my fellow lds like this so he'll see this. I feel that that talk would really resonate with him.

Hello from New Zealand… I love that you are cautious yet curious. Both are good - I was raised in one religion, which I loved, and before I became a convert to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I looked at 12 other religions. I’m glad I did - it helped me on my journey to the restored Church of Jesus Christ. Ask lots of questions. Then pray for direction. I wish you well on your spiritual journey.

Hey! I'm a lifelong Latter-day Saint. I've enjoyed following your journey. You are a good man. God bless you!

David, you have as much if not more faith and belief in God, and in his Son Jesus Christ as we LDS do. You’ve felt the spirit and tasted the fruits as much as any of us. We’ve just decided to park our cars inside the LDS garage as your ancestors did, while you’re currently parked outside in a temporary cover. We love you for doing these videos, I love my fellows Christians who are trying to remain hopeful and faithful in 2024. Come on in, David. There’s plenty of room.

After my dad passed, my aunt was struggling mightily. She was missing my dad and dealing with her own husband dying of cancer. Cardinals are relatively rare in her part of the country, but she was visited by a cardinal that landed on her hand for a few minutes before taking flight again. She and other members of the family took this as a heavenly blessing/messenger. Heavenly Father gives us messages in the manner that we can understand. Good luck on your journey. Listening to you, I feel a spirit of familiarity that I have felt a few other times with other people that I have never met, but I know spiritually.

You’re a modern pioneer. You’re just like Brigham Young. When he first heard of the restoration he was hesitant. Many of his family and friends embraced it quickly. He took his time. I believe he studied and followed the Saints for nearly two years before his conviction was sure and he was baptized. Like the parable of the sower you are wise. You don’t want to rush in only to face a scorching sun or choking weeds. Your ground is so very good. I’ve never seen a Protestant with such a humble heart demonstrate so much care and kindness to the Saints and our story. You love the Lord’s temple. You proceed with caution because you want to ensure your foundation is sure before you build up your spiritual temple. You are wise. You will yet receive revelation and vision the likes of which heretofore you have never before experienced. Thank you for all you do.

The Salt Lake Temple open house in 2025-2026 is going to blow us all away. I can’t wait. David, don’t miss that one!

I just watched this on KZfaq and I can relate to what you’re saying. My background was a bit different but my journey took me to many Protestant churches before learning more about the LDS church. I became a Christian at 25 after being raised Jewish. I am going on 60 and found so much of the love of Jesus Christ consistently throughout the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints than in so many of the other churches that I previously belonged to. I’ve seen the love given to even estranged members of the LDS church which is how I happened upon this church. I became a member on July 19th, 2021 and am so thankful to Our Heavenly Father for leading me here. My faith in our Savior, Jesus Christ has grown so much more deeply and the love, care & support that the church extends to each other is truly how, I believe, that Our Savior set the example for us to follow. I am grateful every day for this and it has really changed my life. It took me a while to come to believe as they do, but I do see it so clearly now. Faith❤

David! Just finished watching this video. As always, I can tell you’re allowing the Spirit to guide your steps towards finding your spiritual “home.” So many of us who have joined the church come from other faith traditions and have been thru a similar journey and like you, had signs along the way that guided us “home.” I especially love your temple tour videos because it reminds me of when I first discovered the beautiful purpose they serve…Currently, I serve in my ward as the Temple and Family History Leader and teach a Temple Preparation class. All that we do in the temple points us towards our Savior, Jesus Christ! All I want to say to you as a brother in Christ is, ALWAYS let the Spirit of the Lord guide your steps… even when you don’t understand it… The Spirit will teach you and guide you! Stay open and humble to Him and He will keep revealing himself to you, line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little and there a little. And btw, there is great purpose in honoring our past, because it prepares us for what He has in store for us in the future! Love you Bro, thank you again for keeping it all VERY real!!! 👍🏼😇

David, you are doing the Lords work on this channel. I’ve followed you since before any of the LDS episodes and was hoping somehow you’d attend at least one ward. I was excited when you did and was impressed with your fair treatment. I’m sure it’s obvious by now that the LDS community loves you and recognizes the good you continue to do. Any church would benefit from having you in their membership. Any ward in the LDS faith would greatly benefit with you in its membership. For many LDS converts there is a huge lifestyle change. On my mission I literally saw a drunkard living in the gutter in Belfast give up all his sins to Jesus and commit to follow Him, that was a huge change for Billy. You on the other hand are already living the teachings of Jesus Christ and have taught many of us on here a lot of great lessons. In a world of darkness, you are a shining light. Lots wife did look back because she wasn’t ready to completely leave her old life behind. On the other hand, if you listen closely to the sacrament prayer next time you attend “ your ward” you’ll notice the word “ remember” is used. So yes, we are encouraged to look back to our savior Jesus Christ and remember Him. I believe that your foundation is much like the St George temple, it’s obviously been shored up and built very well. I love the advice that we get from the apostle Paul. 1 Theselonians 5:21 Prove all things, hold fast that which is good. Keep up the good work, we all wish the best for you and already looking forward to your next episode.

One of my favorite St George Temple stories - In 1877 when it was dedicated Brigham Young was displeased with how short the tower was, but the builders insisted it not be changed. Within a few months of dedication, Brigham passed. About a year later lightning struck the tower, and it burned. It was rebuilt to Brigham's specifications.

I'm a Latter-day Saint convert of a little over 10 years. I'm loving your videos! I really appreciate that you come to our Church services and our temples with an open mind and willingness to learn something, even if you disagree. Sadly not everyone's as nice as you. I really hope that you continue to come closer to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ as you attend services at our Church and with other faiths!

Don’t dismiss the ‘serendipities’ that keep presenting themselves to you. They are clear signs that your spirit is aligning with the source of all light and truth. ❤

David! This was great. I wanted to share some similarities I have with you, in a way. My dad was the only one in his family who joined the church. He was in his mid-twenties when he joined and found out (or may have known) that his great-grandfather, Daniel Seaman, was a member of the early church. He had even been called by Joseph Smith to serve a mission to New York back in the 1830s. While in New York his wife became very ill and he had to take his family back to Canada, where she died. When he finally made his way back to Nauvoo it was after the martyrdom of Joseph Smith when all those splinter groups were taking off. He didn’t know who to follow and ended up going up to Beaver Island after Jessie Strang (the Strangites!) but found out after getting there that it wasn’t what he expected. He took a boat off the island of the Strangites and ended up founding Drummond Island, Michigan. Anyway, that family lost connection with the church until 4 generations later when my dad joined. And thanks to my dad, I was raised in the church and got to serve a mission! So I was the first in my family to serve a mission since the first Latter-day missionary of our family, Daniel Seaman. And my dad has been able to do all the temple work for his ancestors going back to Daniel Murray Seaman (and even further back). What an incredible blessing it has been! Also, I have had some significant spiritual events in my life symbolized by birds. Not to the extent that yours are, but I definitely recognized that the Lord was confirming a spiritual truth to me with the visit of birds. It’s not weird at all! Though, probably rare. I have loved your videos! Keep it up!😊😊😊

There's no coincidences here. You're a good man. Read the talk "Remember Lot's Wife" by Jeffery R. Holland. I think you'll love it. Read the original he gave at BYU. It's a master piece.

WOW!!!!! I had chills from head to toe this whole video! I am blown away by this tender and heart felt video! David you are SO loved by God, and he IS leading you! You are also being blessed for sharing the importance of Jesus Christ! He IS the center of this church. It is HIS church. I know you can feel the Holy Ghost when you have gone to these sacred spaces also when you share your feelings and things you have experienced too! You are loved by your Father in Heaven. We all love you too as odd as it may seem. I pray for you and put your name in the temple regularly. May you feel strength, knowledge and hope. I know God is blessing you in these endeavors. What an exciting time of your life. I am sure your ancestors are there to help you too.

The Manti Temple is the 3rd temple completed in utah, just finished its renovation and its open house starts March 11th or 15th. It has the most original pioneer finish left in it. You should try to come and see

One more thing, President Nelson said, “seek and expect miracles”, in these latter-days! Among all the craziness of the world, there are miracles and peace!!!!❤

Hi David, My ancestors were called to settle the St George area and they helped with the temple. My Great grandparents lived just a few blocks from the temple, and we could see it from their home. When we visited, I always loved taking pictures of the temple through the trees from different angles. It's so strikingly white and beautiful. I love the contrast of the temple and the surrounding hills. The St George Temple is very important to me, and it was where I chose to receive my own endowment, even though I grew up in California. Family history is very important to temple work. Our ancestors do get our attention in various ways. I testify to you that they absolutely do. I suspect those cardinals are even more of a sign than you realize. Keep your mind open and your heart humble. The Lord is drawing you to the truth. Whether you ever choose to join the church or not, your experiences learning about it and studying will bless you so much. You have so many LDS friends (many of us who you've never met) who will support you along the way, no matter what you choose. You are the most genuine KZfaqr I know of. I'm so grateful for the tremendous work you've done. It's blessed me and so many others! I've had fun sharing things from your channel with my family as well. Much love! Keep the videos coming!

Learning about your ancestors can be a very spiritual experience.

David - As my wife and I prepare to serve our sixth mission for the LDS church, I would like to make a few suggestions. It is more important for you to gain a spiritual testimony of the church than a physcial testimony. A physcial testimony is using all the facts and connecting all the dots that make the church true. A spiritual testimony is you have prayed and the spirit has told you the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the Kingdom of God on the Earth. Something can come up and shake your physcial testimony that will bring doughts about the church. But if the spirit has confirmed that the church is true that can not be shaken. Many people gain physcial testimonies then fall away after something is brought up, but most of the time tis not true, and it shakes your faith. I don't know about seeing the cardinals. What if you joined the church then quit seeing cardinals would that mean the church must not be true. I would concider you to be a luck person to found the church and have spent the time learning more about it. Most people just shrug it off after the first introduction. You can try to find out about everything and study like crazy, talk to a ton of people and so on - or you can pray to find out that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the Kingdom of God on the earth and everything else is true. Love watching your videos and the things you are finding. The Church is like the box that hold the peral inside. The church is great but you will find the Savior inside that church. I know the church is true, the Book of Mormon is true, there are Prophets and Apostles on the earth again, Russell M. Nelson is God's prophet on the earth today. In the Name of Jesus Christ Amen.

Join us!!!!! You will love being a member of a ward! It is family! I work in the temple! All I can say is “peace”. It brings so much peace and joy in my life!!! Bring on the temples!! They are the best! A little piece of heaven on earth!!!

I don't believe in coincidences David. ❤. I think you are being led by the spirit. May God bless you and heal your heart and bring you to the truth of all things. I feel your sincerity and goodness. ❤

David, my take on Lot's wife is that she looked back yearning for what she was leaving behind, much like Laman and Lemuel who constantly complained that they should have stayed in Jerusalem and enjoyed their riches and life they left behind. On the other hand, one of the covenants we make with Jesus Christ is to always remember him. We of course remember Him in the present but we should remember Him in the past as well. Looking back to remember Him allows us to be grateful for His hand in our lives. and gives us greater hope and courage to move forward as we follow Him who is mighty to save. Good luck in this wonderful journey of yours. Don't be afraid of where God leads you. He is looking after you.

My ancestors helped build the st. George temple. So many of them gave up everything they had multiple times to come here and be free from religious persecution. All they wanted was to be left in peace to follow what their conscience directed. Even now, there are many who just cannot leave the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints alone.

David, everytime I watch a video of yours and you mention your great grandfather… I feel the spirit very strong. I know you’re on the right path. Keep praying and asking. The pioneers had a firmness in their testimonies and gave up everything they owned because they knew it was true and the trek was worth it. Stopping at Salt Lake City was truly symbolic and inspiring. Mountains( temples) and Salt( covenants)

The Church is Right! Watch David Alexander he’s an evangelical that joined the Church. My husband and I are both converts. Best decision we ever made.

David, you have all my respect. You do well to take your time when considering your path. When the time is right you will know what to do. I have been a member 37 yrs now, so of course my thoughts are with the church. I am the first member of my family. My mom was adopted. A few years ago... DNA testing found that birth line... my blood line ancestors joined the church in Joseph Smith time. They knew him, they crossed the USA, settled in Utah... the pioneer stories that were kind of far to me are super close to me now. I could go on for hours on this topic... All the best to you. Keep it up.

David, I love hearing of your experiences! I love your humility!! I have been praying for you every day for months! Speaking of foundations, Christ organized his church with the foundation of living, apostles and prophets. With Jesus Christ himself as the chief corner stone, Ephesians chapter 2. Christ’s Church has been restored to the earth once again, with living, apostles, and prophets, true priesthood authority, and continuing revelation. This I know without a doubt. I love you as a brother. David Alexander’s spiritual journey is inspiring. Keep looking forward! Sincerely, Clair Vernon.

The Holy Ghost works upon us all and in different ways. You are bringing souls to Christ with these videos. Thank you! I think, for any Christian, it is the Holy Ghost that works within us, through the grace of Jesus Christ, that creates the conviction that serves as a foundation for our faith. Whether that faith moves us to pray, serve those around us, or travel into the barren wilderness with almost nothing. Jesus Christ did all these things too. That spiritual rebirth enables all of us to take up our crosses and follow Him.

David, The Holy Ghost is leading you to the truth!! I would also recommend that you Read & PRAY about the truthfulness of The Book of Mormon!! I love watching your faith journey!! Welcome Brother, from a fellow Latter-day Saint Sister!! ❤🙏

You always brighten my day. Your stories always make me feel the Spirit. It’s amazing to see God leading a willing soul who wants to do the right thing. He will keep leading you along. Keep asking questions. 🖤🙂

We love you, Brother David.

I live in St George and am so happy you were able to tour our beautiful Temple! I love your humility! Love your sincerity! Love your videos! If you want to come back to St George, the Red Cliffs Temple is now having their open house until the end of February.

I'm happy to see how you recognize the beauty where it is. Without prejudices, or close mind. I'm a member of the church because, it makes me happy. If you are happy visiting us enjoy it. Your soul is talking to you. I love your videos. Thank you,

David... You may not know where this journey is going to lead you, but Heavenly Father does, and his arms are wide open!

My dear brother, I've watched your journey for some time now. I would encourage you to continue attending your local Ward. Continue reading the Book of Mormon. Continue fervent prayer asking your Lord and Master if its true, opening your heart to the promptings of His spirit. Listening to the still small voice and the quiet burning in your bosom, that its true. Then move forward in your new found convictions. I wish you well!

Take your time, Darling. You are welcome to participate as you are ready. We accept you as Brother.

Great video! I made the trek from Mesa/Phoenix AZ to see the St. George temple open house with my family and my mother-in-law, in a large SUV stuffed with items for my two married daughters, who were meeting us in St. George, who would be taking the items home with them to SLC, Utah. Halfway there, my vehicle broke down and had to be towed back to Mesa that night. We were stuck in Kingman with the only car rental place in town closing in five minutes. I took an Uber to the rental agency, only to get there 10 minutes after it closed. I pounded on the door and someone unlocked the door to talk to me. They only had one car left to rent, and it would barely hold just hold the four of us, but not our luggage or items for my kids to take home. Then someone in the back had heard my plight and said that maybe I could rent a large quad cap truck that someone had purchased from them in Mesa, AZ. I could rent it, take it to St. George for the weekend, and return it to Mesa by the next Tuesday. It was indeed a miracle! We were able to fit all of our luggage, the many items for my kids to take home, and the four of us all into this big truck, and complete our journey to St. George, although we arrived much later. The next day, we all went to the St. George Temple open house with my two kids and their husbands, and one friend. This was the second to the last Saturday of the Temple open house, and as you described, there were already hundreds of people there waiting to see the temple when we arrived. I agree, the temple blew me away, and I'm a lifetime member and have seen many temples and have been to many temple open houses. The attention to detail was mind-boggling! The ornate features and furniture were simply amazing. I saw several beautiful Victorian oil lamps with side oil tanks (LED bulbs). They had decorative glass and beautifully crafted bases, etc. I did a quick Google search for a similar lamp and saw one online that was very plain looking, but it sold for $1,000! You walk through the temple and try to wrap your brain around how in the world an impoverished people built such an amazing work of art in the pioneer era? Your video is very inspiring with the detail about the hardships of the pioneers and their quest of faith to be successful. Thanks so much for sharing!

So great hearing about your experiences and for the insights you've had with touring the St. George Temple. I loved that you shared the history of Wilford Woodruff and Founding Fathers. Curiously, the word "foundation" is even part of that story, as Wilford Woodruff is quoted as saying, " I will here say... that two weeks before I left St. George, the spirits of the dead gathered around me, wanting to know why we did not redeem them. Said they, 'You have had the use of the Endowment House for a number of years, and yet nothing has ever been done for us. We laid the foundation of the government you now enjoy, and we never apostatized from it, but we remained true to it and were faithful to God.' These were the signers of the Declaration of Independence, and they waited on me for two days and two nights." (Journal of Discourses, Vol.19, pp. 229-31; September 16, 1877) In the temple is a painting “That We May Be Redeemed” by Harold I. Hopkinson that depicts this history. Thank you again for your experiences along the journey of exploring faith communities.

❤ I am filled with the Holy Spirit and in awe listening to your journey. There are no coincidences. Beautiful. My husband and I are adding you to our nightly prayers.😊

David you have been so respectful. You are a very fine young man. Wish you well

David, we've enjoyed watching your journey & your insights in the process. When you mentioned what came to you as you toured the St George temple- the word foundation, I thought of this scripture from the Book of Mormon: "...Remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall." ~Helaman 5:12 Best wishes to you!

My parents are coverts to the church, and husband joined in 2010 when he was in college. He has a Protestant background, took his faith very seriously, and was drawn into the history of the Church at the same time as he was reading the Book of Mormon, and he still loves church history. Loved the history about napoleon’s cannon (!) My husband said his favorite Brigham young quote took place with the building of the St. George temple: “We completed a temple in Kirtland and in Nauvoo; and did we not hear the bells of hell toll at the time we were building them? They did, every week and every day ... if you wish this Temple built, go to work and do all you can this season. Some say, ‘I do not like to do it, for we never began to build a Temple without the bells of hell begining to ring.’ I want to hear them ring again.” Prayers for you, God is mindful of you. You might have already gone to Nauvoo, but if not, we’d be happy to help out! We always go around the beginning of October, a beautiful time of year to visit. Thanks again for these videos!

We love you David. Great job with this video. And as I partook of the fruit thereof it filled my soul with exceedingly great joy; wherefore, I began to be desirous that my family should partake of it also; for I knew that it was desirable above all other fruit. - 1 Ne 8:12 🕊️

Interesting. My parent’s were married in the St George temple. That was many moons ago. I’m an introvert as well and I’m so proud of you that you were able to do these videos. It’s not really like a church, it becomes your family. That is to not push your biological family away but you gain another. You’re a deep thinker and it shows. It’s great that you don’t make decisions based on emotion. May God bless you and keep you safe.

Your journey reminds me of another guy named David Alexander. He does KZfaq videos too. If you have any free time, maybe check out his amazing story. The Lord’s hand is guiding you, and he will never guide you down a wrong path, but the adversary is always throwing stumbling blocks in your way. I pray you will find peace eventually.

Hey David ! My wife and I have been following your journey for some time now, and are always moved by your sincere insights into man's search for happiness. Years ago, when I was a little boy my parents and I attended a small branch in Canoga Park California. Our bishop was named Floyd Weston, a man rooted in deep faith who was also a gifted, eloquent speaker much like yourself. He had a similar faith journey as a young man durning the war when he and his friends set out on a journey to find the church of Jesus Christ. He has a recorded talk on you tube called " 17 points of the true church " It's a great talk that I think you will enjoy. You are always in our prayers. Jay and Patsy

David, I have been with you for a while and want to say I am extremely proud of you. I have prayed, for over a year now, for God's protection and guidance for you. Wonderful video, wonderful stories. Great job, my friend. And, as usual, thank you for taking us along.

Member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints 🙋‍♀️ you are such an inspirational guy! I’m grateful for all the positive words you have about the church and an open mind to all your experiences! May you continue to find your own path ❤️

I am so moved by your faith and love of our Savior Jesus Christ and for your sincere search for truth. I hope you will continue to learn more about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It does contain the fullness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and can add to the truth you already have. I think you’ve felt the Holy Ghost witnessing truth to you but you’re held back due to your past experiences with churches. You have been in my prayers and will continue to be. Your openness and sincerity will lead you to eventually gaining a sure testimony through the witness of the Holy Ghost, of the truthfulness of the church. My experience with the Holy Ghost has always been a warm good feeling within and the voice of the still, small voice that has been an undeniable witness to me. I appreciate your videos so much.

David, As a lifetime member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I have watched your KZfaq videos and listened to your perspective on many of your church journeys. I want you to know that I really have appreciated your unbiased point of view. Most recently your comments about this acquisition of the Kirkland Temple and other things. Thank you for your words of caution! I appreciate hearing your perspective regarding this as I do not live near nor know any of those fine folks who have needed to sell such a precious treasure and treasures. You are right in that we are as a church very excited, but probably don't think about their side of things. I hope they will be OK and that we as a church will not abuse the privileges' of owing these things now. So again, David, Thank you.

You just made my day! Thank you for consistently visiting your local ward. I pray you will feel the Savior's love for you through your ward family. Keep asking questions. Christ persistently tells us in scripture, "Ask and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you." It was through asking questions that caused the restoration. Thanks for sharing what you are truly feeling. We in the Church know what you are experiencing and are praying for you. May you find your home and foundation soon. Love always from us imperfect saints.

I absolutely LOVE your videos! Thank you for making them and sharing. I'm a life-long member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, yet I'm learning interesting tidbits of church history from you that I didn't know about. I look forward to your videos and hearing your perspective, which I find quite refreshing! Thank you, David.

David, I appreciate your sincere and thoughtful experience with the Church. May God bless you in your spiritual journey.

I love hearing you talk about your experiences. Keep praying. Sometimes revelation is overpowering. Other times it is gradual. I love that the first word that God spoke in this dispensation was “Joseph” before he delivered the message he let us know that he loves and focuses on individual. That’s why your spiritual journey is different than mine.

You need to go through the SLC temple when the have their openhouse. The Celestial room has painting on the ceiling that are unbelievable. And the architecture. So crazy beautiful.

Love your open mind and willingness to learn more. Also thank you for using the full and correct name of the church. I am praying for you. God bless you.

What you said today about looking to your past made me think.🤔 All the Lord asks is for you to remember. Remembering is looking at your past and what he has taught you. It is looking at how he has brought you out of captivity…much like Moses and the children of Israel. We need to let the hurt of the past go. We need to let traditions of the past go. We need to trust in him and his power to heal and lead us across our red seas and wildernesses to our promised land and liberty. We need to turn to him and follow him. We also need to do what he asks us to do. We don’t want to have empty lamps when the bridegroom comes. You are on an incredible journey. Thank you for being a peacemaker in this troubled world. Remember, the answer is always Jesus Christ. Let him teach and lead you to him.

It’s so interesting to hear your stories and perspectives! What you are doing is showing people the importance of seeking Jesus. You dedication and your curiosity of seeing the diversity of so many churches and faith groups is inspiring! Without a doubt you are becoming a great friend and ambassador for Christ. I’m a lifelong member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and I want to thank you for your respect and kindness in your videos. You asked in the comments for suggestions of something else to explore regarding the church. I would highly recommend that you attend a small branch in some remote corner of the world. I got to live in Voronezh, Russia and Cairo, Egypt. Those branches were my home away from home. There’s thousands of those types of little tiny branches all over the world. I hope you get to experience visiting one someday!

Thanks for sharing, David! Jesus Christ is the sure foundation we all need. The restoration, temples and the covenant path, living prophets and apostles are all just more blessings to help us prepare for His return in the last days. God bless you for your faith and open heart to more of Gods light and knowledge. You’re a great example and light in this world. 🤍

Brigham Young studied the Book of Mormon for two years before he became convinced of its truth and joined the Church of Jesus Christ. Everyone's story is different. Your cardinals are awesome. I had an experience with a dove, and it is so special to me. We all need prayers. I'll pray for you, and someday, we will all meet at Jesus's feet.❤

It’s remarkable to see how much Heavenly Father speaks to everyone

For what it's worth, and this is true, when my daughter got her patriarchal blessing, there was a beautiful bird (I don't remember the exact type) that just stood outside the entire time, not leaving and looking in. My daughter noticed it and mentioned it. It might have been nothing but we certainly noticed it

David, I love your videos. Know that my wife and I will be praying for you. Thank you for asking for them. You may be interested in the history of the building of the Salt Lake Temple. Its construction began even before the St George temple. A massive foundation was built out of sandstone. But when Johnston's army moved into Salt Lake City during the Brigham Young era, the Saints buried it completely to hide any indication that it existed. Later on they removed some of the sandstone foundation that had become compromised and replaced it with solid granite-type rock. As an analogy, I think that foundations take a lot of work to develop, both for temples and for individual persons. I definitely value how you spoke about this in your video. Thank you for your exemplary care, honesty, and transparency. It is very uplifting. Lots of blessings!

Wonderful video. Thanks for sharing your experiences. I, too, was skeptical when I met the missionaries and eventually, 6 months later, was baptized. It all seemed too good to be true. The Spirit gave me a powerful witness yet I kept waiting for something weird or negative to be revealed to me but after about 10 years, I realized there was nothing bad about this gospel or the people to reject it. I wish you all the best in your spiritual quest. Remember to keep focused on Jesus. He's the center of it all. Take care. I'm anxious to see your next video.

There was so much light and goodness exploding from your video. Your heart is humble and genuine. Thank you David for seeking after the light. It is so neat to hear your honest thoughts and reactions as you learn about different faith practices. The temple (House of the Lord) is such a blessing to members who love this priceless gift. It is a place of hope, peace and love. Just the other day I was weighed down with heartbreaking news of a family member and knew I needed and added measure of peace. I went to the temple and actually felt like I was walking 3 feet off the ground once I entered the Lord’s house. I found myself smiling from ear to ear and the worries, fears and troubles of the world were literally swallowed up with peace. (Something I could not do for myself.) I was reassured that The Lord is aware and mindful of my fears. That He loves all of His children and will deliver us through the hard stuff as we exercise faith in Him. A dedicated temple has power and added strength. Our Lord is in these holy places. Praise be to our Almighty King. Thank you for sharing your heart. May the spirit of the Lord attend your questions and sincere desires. 🙏🏻☀️

My son passed away at 16 years of age. Without a belief and testimony that families are forever, I could not have carried on. I had 4 daughters at the time. I am a widow now with 16 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren. I am looking forward to that sweet reunion💕

David, thank you for this exciting video. I’m an LDS convert and I found so much beauty in the restored gospel, most of all with the members. I don’t think there is another organisation anywhere with so many noble individuals. You just ignited a spiritual fire within me with gratitude for having found this church.❤

God is speaking to you. Keep listening and you won’t be led astray.

As a member of the church, I love your open mind. Whatever you choose, we all need to have an open mind like you. That gives God a place to put his will and his path.

I would call what you are experiencing, "Divine Coincidences " 😊 I had lots of them when I was looking for some purpose for my existence. Seemed like coincidences at the time, but later, looking back, I clearly saw the divine thread leading me to Christ and His church! Simple things, like your red Cardinals, that meant nothing to others, but had significance for me. Good luck David with your puruit!

I enjoyed your video and commentary very much. I love all the signs of Heavens eye on you.💛 My parents were converts to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the 1950s. My husband is also a convert more than 40 years ago. I am grateful for my membership and the great blessings it continues to bring. Blessings to you in your spiritual journey.

I have been a huge fan of your videos on the 52/52. I truly admire your humbleness, your kindness, your curiosity and genuine desire to find the positive in this world. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. You are a good man and I have so much respect for you! I look forward to more content from you, and hope you will find the peace you are searching for. You deserve the best!! We all do. I have been a victim of Narcissistic abuse from my 1st marriage and its hard to move on. However I know it's relieving to know that there is so much peace and tranquility in finding out who you really are. Trust can be mended and you deserve love. There are good people in this world and I believe you are one of them. Be earnest in your prayers and trust in Jesus and he will guide you through any of your struggles. Keep up the good work and keep being that light to the world you were called to be. Thanks for being you!

David. Jesus Christ’s church was restored in its fullness. This is true. Love your videos!

I would love to see you have a “discussion” with the missionaries. We are all praying you are feeling the spirit!!! God is leading you to where you should be. Pray if the Church of Jesus Christ Latter-day Saints is true, the spirit will witness it to you. We are all converted by the spirit even if it doesn’t make sense in our heads we feel it in our heart and soul. It feels like coming home!!! I have loved watching your journey!!! Thank you for sharing!!!

Hellow from Taiwan ~~你的影片好好看！I'm a second generation member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Taiwan. I didn't know there are so many Book-of-Mormon-believing church in the United States until I watched your videos. I learned new things in your videos and got confirmation that what I believe is true. I'm in my 40s and I got so many blessings from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I'm looking forward to seeing anything coming up in your future videos.

Do not worry about being distrustful of joining. Brigham Young investigated for YEARS before deciding that it was right for him. If God doesn't confirm to you that it is right, don't do it. When you are ready, God will let you know it's time to make that covenant with Him.

This is so inspirational. Something about this church keeps drawing me to it!

Go to the Sacred Grove!! Spring is coming, it’s going to be BEAUTIFUL

I love your stuff, man. I’ve been LDS my whole life, so it’s fun to get the perspective of someone to whom all this is new.

@52churchesin52weeks The restored gospel of Jesus Christ is a beautiful thing. So many unanswered questions come full circle and make sense when viewing the whole picture. Many negative things about the church come from individuals picking up one piece of a 1,000 piece puzzle, and they can't figure out any rhyme or reason to that piece. But once the pieces around that pice are placed are out together, the piece is turned different than expected and fits perfectly and makes absolute sense. I am grateful for the faith we share in the Atonement of our Lord Jesus Christ. The persecution is a fulfillment of prophecy. It's a sign of the truthfulness gospel. "Blessed are they that are persecuted for My sake. " " Forgive them, for they know not what they do. " if they truly understood that we are all children of God and Loving God and Jesus Christ as well as loving our fellow men even if we don't agree, is more important than belittling others due to different perspectives and understandings and trying to prove others wrong.

I really appreciate your honest and open view towards all churches and I know that God is guiding you all the way. As an LDS member, I have faced persecution in social and work settings. Thank you for being understanding and open to learn. Keep these videos coming!

Thanks for your videos. Your open heart is refreshing.

You may not remember them but they know you. There is so much they need us for and what we need them for. We are interwoven like a tapestry. As you learn more, and you will learn more, the coincidences will appear, your cardinal for example, know there are no coincidences, those who have passed continually to reach out to us in order for them to move forward. Be blessed my brother, for we are brothers, may the Father’s blessings be upon you, may the Master’s grace and mercy envelope you always. Thx for your work and quest.

Dont worry, David. I experienced some similar feelings. I decided, to attend church and follow all commendments, I was tought. And I was blessed with all fruits and blessings that belong to this commendments, like the members. Including the friendship of my ward members. I was not forced to be baptized. I was totally accepted and loved. Years later, I was ready to go the next step. Your father in heaven knows you and your story. Keep praying and asking and trusting the Lord. He will guide you home.

What a great adventure you are having! Praying God continues to bless you! It is wonderful to see you smiling & the energy you are having in doing this! I feel your enthusiasm! Pray & ask to be continually guided to all truth. Your humility & faith & openness will be key to your discoveries. Praying for you🙏😔

I love hearing about your spiritual journey. Thanks for sharing!

The spirit is working with you brother

My favorite video yet! Thanks for sharing such a personal journey. 👍

I have a testimony of the church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints, I so enjoy hearing about your journey. It actually makes my testimony stronger. God bless you.

The St. George Temple is my favorite because 6 generations of my family have been sealed in it for time and all eternity. My ancestors helped build it as well. I’m glad you got to see it.

I loved this tour with you. You are amazing. You inspire me to be a better follower of Jesus Christ . He loves us all. His arms are alway open as He invites us all to Come Follow Him. I could feel a special Spirit radiating from you. Thank You.

Yay I always look forward to your videos. You’re one of my favourite KZfaqrs.

Your journey is very inspiring. Thank you for sharing. Listening was a highlight today.

It’s hard to imagine the sacrifices of those who labored to build the early temples!!!
