fred johnson 936 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) When a person is called to a position in the LDS church, the person feels a lot of pressure to accept. ... <asked to fulfill> ... We also believe in "magnifying our callings", which is basically- give it your all, do your best, etc. ... Combine the bishop asking, "magnifnifying our callings" and the macho'ism of being a man, I'd imagine it would be hard to say no. Saying no is somewhat saying your bishop is wrong, saying you're not following a tenant of your faith and denying the macho-ism every guy has. So, I can easily see many leaders getting boxed in and not doing a great job. But that can happen inside and outside LDS units. Just a different path.

Twocubdad 665 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 We have a room full of people who don't mind saying no. Then there's a different group who will agree to most anything, but then never do it. Link to post Share on other sites
