I realise that the finished product we have is the result of the pilot but it would of been useful to have had the practicalities of how it worked within the wards, i know we have to learn for ourselves but what is wrong with the concept of sharing best practice? the concept is used widely elsewhere why not in the church? It will never change We will always be known as Mormons
Accept it and move on!

It’s a very good post. Love it.Why then, is sex a sin in all cases?
A couple has sex once before marriage.
They don’t tell anyone. They try hard to be careful and not let it happen again. No other partners. No disease. No pregnancy.
They get married in the temple.
Wherein is the sin?
Where does the line get drawn for sin or not sin? When there is no harm, is there a foul?
Is there a thing such as a “close call..but no sin”?
The husband is alone for the weekend. Wife took the kids to the in-laws for a summer break, he stays home to work. Friday night…all alone…he goes out to eat and has a few beers. No alcoholism. Do drunk driving. No meeting others and having affairs. Just beer.
It isn’t repeated when the family is around.
No harm to anyone, except a few brain cells.
Sin?
I agree with you30 years ago I was courting my wife, because I knew she was my eternal partner and soul mate and of my love for her we slept together before our marriage, it was an expression of our love for each other, it was natural. We knew that we wanted to be together. But what we had done in the eyes of the church was a sin? Or was it?
After we were married we wanted to be sealed so I went to the bishop
I explained it all to him and told him there was nothing wrong in any thing we had done
He still disfellowshipped me but I still argue I did nothing wrong
