Please dont send any more anti Mormon garbage to this address . . . why don’t you find something new to make money on? The Church will grow inspite of you. You are defeating your purpose. . . .

Good luck you will need it especially after this life. Merry Christmas

Just a note to thank you for the impact your work has had on my life. I am a new, fully functioning person since I left the Mormon church six years ago. Through a miracle, I discovered your book Mormonism—Shadow or Reality? about 10 years ago. The book was a catalyst for me. . . . I feel so free, so happy, and yet so responsible for my life. . . . We have been extremely interested in the Hofmann affair . . . We are depending on you for a more complete understanding of the events because you do not have to protect the LDS church.

I was raised in the Mormon Church and I have always believed it was Gods only true church. My husband and I were married in the Temple and have always been very dedicated to the church. We have been especially involved in missionary work, which brought us into contact with anti-Mormon literature. Much of it was of such poor quality that we quickly disregarded it. When we were given your book The Changing World of Mormonism, however, it was more difficult to deal with.

It took a long time and a lot of research for us to come to grips with the fact that the evidence against the church is overwhelming. It was painful to then have to accept the fact that the church could not possibly be true, especially after we had given so much of ourselves to the church, but we are glad we took the step.

We realize now that it is due to your straight forward, well-documented and factual approach to Mormon claims that the evidence was able to make an impression upon us.

I have just gained access to your “The Changing World of Mormonism.” I recognize it for what it is. It is a scholarly work in its limited field. In that it tells the truth it is good. Where it conveys a destructive or false impression it is not good. . . . You have sought and are seeking to destroy. . . . You have sold yourself. . . . there are millions that do not share your view. . . . you will be held accountable for what you do. . . . I suggest you harmonize your work with Jesus Christ or be prepared for what must come.

I’m reading your . . . “Mormonism—Shadow or Reality?” Very interesting and the greatest book published. I was born a mormon but no longer believe it’s doctrine. . . . I’m so glad I found out the truth about the L.D. S. Church.

I have read with great interest, your works on Mormonism, as a matter of fact, I can say today, I am an ex-Mormon because of some of your works. Now I share your ministry, with gladness and fervor. I am currently witnessing to the Missionaries . . .

As you can see by the heading, we EX RLDS have formed a group here in Independence . . . I thank God for your ministry, Gerald and Sandra, since I wrote to you 2 years ago when I was coming out of the RLDS church and you were kind enough to direct me to other RLDS who I got in touch with and helped me work through all the mess until I found the REAL Jesus! So praise God you are hanging in there and are committed to His work—thanks!

We have been members of the Mormon Church for the past ten years. We have finally “thought our way out,’ so to speak and have asked for our names to be removed from the membership records of the church. We have read your books, The Changing World of Mormonism, and Mormonism—Shadow or Reality? and various other literature.

I have finally gotten my name removed from the records of the LDS church, . . . myself and daughters have all accepted Christ this year. . . . I have also found two friends who have recently accepted Christ and left the Mormon Church. We would like to start a group for other LDS members who are questioning or are in the process of leaving the LDS church.

It sure marvels me that you help God unwittingly shaking out luke-warm & useless members of the Mormon church and strength[en] the stronger ones. It also encourages me all the more in wanting to join the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints — as soon as I work on quitting smoking and drinks and coffee.

I am a returned missionary, a former Bishops counselor, High Counselor, and Stake Young Mens President. Currently I’m a High Priest and teach the Gospel Doctrine sunday school class in my branch. I just wanted to personally thank you for trying to bring the truth out into the open about my Church. I want the whole truth no matter what. Thank you. You are doing a find job. I really do look forward to each Messenger you send me.
