Q&A: Many Mormons don't know their own doctrine until their mission trip, where they encounter informed Christians and discover the differences for the first time.

Viewer question: 'Why do so many Mormons consider themselves Christians even though their doctrine seems completely different? Are they not aware of the obvious differences?'

After encountering doctrinal challenges, Mormon missionaries are isolated with older Mormons who reinforce their beliefs — a process Mike calls 'brainwashing.'

Mike describes the social reinforcement mechanism that keeps Mormon missionaries from processing the doctrinal challenges they encounter.

How Paul applies his theology tells us what his real theology is; his application is the missions mandate.

Advice for a new missionary to Japan: (1) Don't go alone — attach yourself to other believers and protect those relationships; Satan will target them. (2) Long-term missions requires patience — it's years of investment, not quick results. (3) Your impact ripples through generations even if it feels small. The lives you change will change other lives for decades.
