I have a question wrote:Good evening, I have a question:
This mans day job has been to convince others to sell his products. He has developed a network of 'demonstrators' who then sell to the end user the goods he designates. It's an archetypal Multi Layer Marketing scheme. And he has been very successful. In every single respect he is perfect for the role of Mission President, a role where he convinces groups of teenagers to go and 'demonstrate' the Church to the public who may or may not be aware of it.
My question: Does operating the mission field in the way that this man is going to be inclined to operate it (I recognise I may have just done him a huge disservice), damage the reputation of the Church and further propagate the impression that "it's all about sales"?
Actually, the CEO of this company happens to be the woman of this wife and husband team. The article seems to be focusing more on her than on the man.

I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who - is reaching for a star. I'd rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once an are. - Milton Berle

No mention of the living scriptures here. Curious. Is that crap still around?
"Rocks don't speak for themselves" is an unfortunate phrase to use in defense of a book produced by a rock actually 'speaking' for itself... (I have a Question, 5.15.15)
