A Mormon Mother Defends Faith And Church (TGI Thursday)

A Mormon Mother Defends Faith And Church (TGI Thursday)

York Radio featured a religious roundtable on its weekly programme ³TGI Thursday² following the announced decision to scale down the ³Faith² section of London's Millenium Dome. An Anglican, an Episcopal, and a Mormon were asked -- grilled, really -- about the role and relevance of spirituality in Britain today.

Representing the Church was Lynn Purser of the Harrogate Ward, York England Stake.  Sister Purser responded to questions on Latter-Day Saint attitudes concerning personal testimony, the Atonement, the Book of Mormon, polygamy, fasting, the role of faith in everyday life, and whether chastity and marital fidelity are realistic ideals in the modern age. She was also the only panel member not to become noticeably agitated under the host's probing and rapid-fire questions.

The programme was broadcast across Yorkshire on FM 103.8 MHz.
