Introducing Myself

Hello blogging world! My name is David K and I am making my first step into the blogging world. A lot of my friends have started blogging and doing other stuff on the internet and I thought it was my turn. So, I should say something about myself:

I am a 22 year old student at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. I have been here since returning from a Mormon mission to Italy in early 2007. I am majoring in psychology here at BYU, but since coming home from Italy, I've wanted nothing more than to be a seminary teacher. But more on that later. I love BYU football and go to all their home games. I am a die-hard BYU fan and go to as many sporting events as possible. I also really love being in college. It is such an intense atmosphere and being at BYU really is an awesome opportunity because of how they mix religion with education here. I'm not married yet, but I am actively looking and hope that soon, I can move on with my life.

As I said, I hope to be a seminary teacher. I am obviously a Mormon (for those of you who didn't know) and I love the scriptures, something I learned as a missionary in Italy. I want so bad to share that love with teenagers. I had so many awesome seminary teachers that had such a great influence on me when I was in high school and I want to be just like them. So when I become a junior (next year), then I will be eligible to enroll in the seminary teaching classes and hopefully work toward being a seminary teacher. That is part of why I started this blog.

This blog is meant to be a place for discussion on important issues in Mormonism. I hope to be able to make sense of the difficult parts of Mormon doctrine as a way of preparing myself to be a better seminary teacher. So as you read this blog, I hope you will comment on some of the things I bring up and some of the questions I ask so that we can together come to a better understanding of Mormon doctrine.

Thanks for visiting my site.
