David Archuleta was raised in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) and was baptized into the church as a child. He has always been a Mormon. Mormons are Christians, but they are not Protestant or Catholic Christians. Mormons believe that the Bible is the Word of God and that Salvation comes through Jesus Christ, just like all Christians, but they also have additional beliefs that are not shared by mainstream Christianity. These beliefs include modern prophets, scripture in addition to the Bible, and salvation for the dead, just to name a few.
