"Why No Coffee?" ... and other Word of Wisdom Questions (Ep. 23)

This week's questions focus on the Word of Wisdom, including: "Is alcohol inherently evil? Why can't I drink coffee, tea, and alcohol? Why are coffee and tea still against the WOW when they are actually better for us than sodas and energy drinks?"

Find out in this week's episode of the Ask in Faith Podcast. PLEASE COMMENT BELOW: - What other questions would you like us to address in future videos? As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I often get asked questions about our beliefs and practices. I can only speak for myself, not as an official Church representative, but here are my responses to some of those commonly asked questions. This short video certainly doesn't answer every question, so I'd encourage you to continue seeking truth on this subject, while also remembering that the Lord often asks us to obediently trust Him while we wait for further light and knowledge. Hope it helps!
