A Little Bit About Myself

Welcome to My Mormon Studies! Before talking about my plans for this site, I would like to take a moment to introduce myself, and what lead me to creating this site.

I am Jam, a 22 year old from England. In 2007 I was handed a Book of Mormon by a friend who had recently joined the church. I took the book, and thanked my friend for it. That book stayed on my bookshelf for nearly 3 years... unread. Mid 2009, I became friends with a guy, and whilst hiking around my local area we often got into discussions about religion and the idea of God. He had all these ideas about God, Heaven & Hell and ideas about religion that, at the time, I had never heard of before. I soon found out that he was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, or by the more popular name, the Mormon Church.

As soon as he mentioned the name Mormon, I remembered this book that had been handed to me a few years previous. I instantly had a lot of questions to ask him, but sadly most of the time he would just reply with "Why don't you read the Book of Mormon, and find out for yourself?". This got annoying very quickly, and so at the beginning of 2010 I began to read.
