It's amazing how well she turned out with her dad leaving her at a young age and being so close to him. Her mom is awesome and a great example. Good message.
Thank you for unloading this message. :) It's amazing to see strong people who have overcome challenges in their lives, and you have definitely done a wonderful job in handling yours. :) Thank you for being here to inspire me also.
The reason they say they're Mormon at the end is because so many people around the world have a stereotype of what we are. These ads are to show that we come from all walks of life, just like many other people you know. It's to break down the stereotypes of who Mormons are, what they look like etc. I like the ads, especially those about people from other countries.
For those who still don't get it, these are not commercials to make people join our church. These show that mormons are just regular people who do regular things.
We consider ourselves as Christians, but people gave us the nickname "Mormons" because of the Book of Mormon. We would call our selves "Latter Day Saints" since our church is the "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints", but people don't recognize that name. So we call ourselves by what people recognize us as. Not to mention some people get miffed when we say we're Christians. I don't really understand why since, as you said, we do believe in Christ.
Yes, there's a bunch of people in the world that are Mormon, this is just showing that there might be many people that you see everyday, and they might be Mormon, I'm 13 years old and I'm sure I'm a regular person with a different perspective and religion, and yes, I am Mormon
Actually we do! :D Many people outside of the church all us mormons and so it's something of a label (like baptist or catholic) but we most definitely consider ourselves Christian! Thanks for asking! Often we also refer to ourselves as Members of the Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints, but a lot of people find that too long ;) (and yes, Jesus Christ is capitalized in that :) ) Hope that helps!
Nothing personal against the girl in the video, but what's next; Catholics, Baptists, etc doing the same pointless kind of commercials? I mean, this would have been great except for the "and I'm a Mormon" part, I mean who cares! Where is the message in regards to Mormonism?
Now, I don't mean to be offensive, nor do I hope it seems that I am acting that way, but what is the point of these commercials? What are they trying to accomplish?Just curious why they took all this time and energy into something so vague to why it exists.
these are ads. Let's not beat. And yes they are trying to show that Mormons are regular people - that's exactly what they are advertising. There is nothing wrong with admitting they are ads coz they are not fooling anyone
You know, I sometimes see commercials like this on TV... I never understood where the hell they were leading, and then they'd say, "...and I'm a Mormon" with a smile, and I'd laugh. I'd realize, "What the hell does that have to do with being a Mormon?" And laugh for a few seconds. I still don't get it, but I don't mind the commercials. They don't push you to be a certain religion - 3 - Just tells you about some happy Mormons.
That's a good question. Mormons do call themselves Christian but don't use the term in these videos. Two reasons 1) Christian applies to several denominations and is not unique to the LDS Church 2) it's the familiar term, as oppose to Latter-day Saint, preferred term. Mormon isn't offensive, obviously. The LDS Church is one of the few that has Jesus Christ in its name. "Christian" appears 4 times in the NT but "saint" appears 96 times and refers to believers in Christ.

What a beautiful daughter, so caring towards her mother. What a blessing to her mother, Salam.
MOMS ARE THE BEST. THE HIDDEN MAGIC OF MOTHERHOOD SHINES JUST LIKE OUR SAVIOR'S LOVE.
Loyal Daughter. Wonderful story of you. Thanks for posting. Inspiring.
I appreciate her testimony on how her Mother sacrifice everything for her.

A lot of people have some misconceptions about LDS people and these videos are just to show that Mormons are regular people like you and me

I love her, I aspire to be like her one day!!
What a cool story!
Christians gave us that nickname.
Our actual church name is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It has His whole name in it....
We don't, that's just the nickname the world gave us. We're called The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
