If you've never heard Glenn Beck's conversion story. This is a great interview. I like hearing conversion stories. If it wouldn't be mocked I think it would be great to have a collection of conversion stories on a website somewhere. However some things shouldn't be cast before swine. This however is well done.
I love the Lord and the changes that He can make in our lives if we will just let him. We were talking to some friends tonight and the conversation turned to intolerance among Mormons. Not that it is a big issue, but some sins are easier to see, and we as a people need to see others as god sees them. When that guy with the tattoo walks into church, or the woman who used to be a prostitute, or the man who just got out of prison, we need to see them as God sees them. We need to love them. That doesn't mean that we shouldn't take precautions, but if Christ's atonement is good enough for us, then it is good enough for them. We should accept them as people who are trying to come to Christ just like we are. For we are all sinners. It's not up to us to determine if their repentance was sincere. It is not even up to us to forgive them, (unless they wronged us). We are all brothers and sisters, equal in our ability to utilize the atonement.

He really is a good man. I was very impressed with Beck at the Sadium of Fire. He was sincere and really down to earth.
