Unequally Yoked: How to Preserve the Restoration and still save your Marriage.

by Bret L. Corbridge

In Mormonism today, there exists a growing number of LDS couples, who find themselves in a complicated situation. Generally speaking, these men and women have been married in the temple, are active in the church, and are working to raise children in this dark and difficult world. Although every story is unique, the basic challenge these couples face is similar. One spouse, and it can be either the husband or the wife, determines to search deeper into the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the glories of the Kingdom. (D&C 42:61). He or she studies scripture and then compares the holy word of God to what the LDS Church is currently teaching. This comparison results in a spiritual awakening, where the growing member realizes just how much light and truth has been lost since the death of the Prophet Joseph Smith. They may then try to share their new perspective with those they love, but often find that the other does not appreciate their new understanding, and instead would rather stay in the religious traditions passed down by the fathers. (D&C 93:39). To assist these couples in working through spiritual differences, a twelve-step program is provided here in this text.
