testing 123 testing 123 this is radio free Mormon on the air broadcasting behind enemy

lines. Tonight's episode compelling reasons to doubt Mormonism. Well as most of you know I was

baptized into the LDS church fresh out of high school back in June of 1978 and being a good

faithful Latter-day Saint boy I signed up for a mission. I received my mission call to Kobe,

Japan in the summer of 1979 and reported for duty at the MTC. Yes, the Missionary Training Center
