Beaconsfield at a Turning PointIn this episode, Scott sits down with Beaconsfield Mayor Martin St. Jean for a wide-ranging conversation about the issues shaping the city right now. They discuss what has happened during the mayor's first hundred days in office, the major infrastructure projects now moving forward, and the difficult balance between adding housing and preserving the character that makes Beaconsfield unique.Mayor Martin St. Jean Reflects on His First 100 DaysMayor St. Jean explains that one of the biggest challenges of his first hundred days has been stepping into a new leadership role after serving as a city councillor. He also highlights the work involved in helping three new council members get up to speed on ongoing files and city priorities. At the same time, he points to a major early accomplishment: awarding the contract for the long-awaited cultural centre in Centennial Park, a project that will now begin moving toward construction.The $22 Million Agglomeration Tax DisputeOne of the biggest topics in the conversation is the ongoing agglomeration tax dispute with the City of Montreal. Mayor St. Jean shares that Beaconsfield has now secured trial dates in early 2028, creating a clear timeline for the next stage of the legal process. He explains that even though Beaconsfield saw a small reduction in its share of agglomeration costs this year, the city still believes it is paying millions more than it should under the original 2008 agreement. As a result, the city has increased its claim from $20 million to $23 million and continues to make its payments under protest.How the City Would Use Recovered FundsIf Beaconsfield is successful in recovering some of those overpayments, the city has not yet decided exactly how the money would be used. Mayor St. Jean says that options could include infrastructure spending, reducing debt, or other community priorities. He stresses that any future decision would benefit from input from council, the finance committee, and residents.Why Resident Input MattersA major theme throughout the episode is the importance of public participation. Mayor St. Jean speaks about the value of Beaconsfield's consultative committees, including finance, traffic, environment, and culture and leisure. He explains that these committees allow residents with expertise and interest to help shape decisions, rather than leaving council to operate in isolation. He also emphasizes that public consultations will continue to play a major role in how the city plans for the future.The New Cultural Centre at Centennial ParkThe mayor provides an update on the new cultural centre, one of Beaconsfield's most significant upcoming projects. Construction is expected to begin in late spring or early summer, with completion targeted for summer 2028. During the build, the city plans to keep the marina operational, while Centennial Hall will remain open and accessible to residents. He also notes that the final site plan will actually increase the amount of green space by merging existing lots and building on land that is already paved.Keeping the Project on BudgetRecognizing that many residents are wary of cost overruns on large public projects, Mayor St. Jean outlines why the city feels confident about the cultural centre budget. He explains that the awarded contract includes contingencies of roughly 10 percent and that the project came in only slightly above earlier estimates. With 12 competitive bids received, the city sees that as a strong sign that the project was designed and priced responsibly.What Could Happen to the Old Library BuildingThe future of the current library building has not yet been decided. Mayor St. Jean says the city has time to evaluate options before the new cultural centre opens. Possibilities include additional administrative space for city operations, community-oriented uses, or a mix of both. He connects that discussion to the city's broader strategic planning process, which will look at Beaconsfield's medium- and long-term needs.Rec Centre Renovation PlansThe conversation also covers the long-awaited renovation of the Rec Centre. Mayor St. Jean explains that the city is preparing for a major overhaul that will include a rebuilt pool area, new change rooms, updated plumbing and electrical systems, and improvements to the arena side as well. Rather than demolishing and rebuilding the structure entirely, the city chose a renovation path that preserves the existing structure while delivering significant upgrades at a much lower cost.Windermere Park RedevelopmentAnother important project on the horizon is Windermere Park. The city has already conducted surveys and community outreach to better understand what local residents want from the space. New concepts are expected to be presented, followed by another round of consultation, before the city moves toward formal plans and tendering. Work there is likely to take shape later than the other major projects, likely beginning in late 2027 or early 2028.The Housing Challenge in BeaconsfieldHousing is one of the most important issues discussed in the episode. Scott and Mayor St. Jean talk about the mismatch between affordability efforts and the lack of housing supply. The mayor acknowledges the real need for more housing options, especially for seniors who want to downsize without leaving Beaconsfield and for younger adults hoping to return to the community where they grew up.Smart Density Without Losing Beaconsfield's CharacterMayor St. Jean makes it clear that Beaconsfield is not looking to follow the path of cities filled with tall condo towers. Instead, the city wants to explore what he calls smart density. That means identifying areas where low-rise, well-integrated housing can fit into the urban fabric without undermining the city's garden character, tree canopy, and predominantly single-family feel. He says the goal is to balance future needs with the qualities that residents already value most.Condo Development Near Elm and the Train StationThe mayor also gives updates on current and potential condo projects. He notes that work is now underway again on the long-delayed development near the train station, which could eventually add 140 to 160 units. He also discusses the Elm Plaza site, where earlier proposals were pulled back and revised. While nothing new has officially been presented recently, he says that area remains one of the places where carefully planned density could make sense.Transit, Traffic, and Housing ValueThe discussion highlights how transit access ties into future development. With new STM bus routes linked to the REM and proximity to the Beaconsfield train station, some of these proposed housing areas may become more attractive because residents could rely less on cars for commuting. Scott notes that this kind of convenience can also support property values when projects are designed well and integrated properly.Accessory Dwelling Units and Basement ApartmentsThe conversation turns to accessory dwelling units and secondary suites, such as detached in-law suites, garage conversions, and basement apartments. Mayor St. Jean explains that Beaconsfield chose to opt out of a provincial measure that would have allowed these more broadly, but says the city has not closed the door on the idea. He believes that any decision on this issue needs to be part of a broader planning and zoning conversation, one that includes public feedback and neighborhood-level considerations.A Push for Safer RoadsTraffic safety is another key issue covered in the episode. Mayor St. Jean explains that the city has requested a red light camera at the Highway 20 and St. Charles intersection, where dangerous left turns onto the eastbound ramp have become a serious concern. The city is also asking the Ministry of Transport to review the wider interchange design, which no longer seems suited to current traffic volumes. While Beaconsfield cannot act alone on these changes, the mayor says it was important to begin pushing for action now.Flooding, Drainage, and Water ManagementThe episode also addresses flooding concerns and the city's response to increasingly intense weather events. Mayor St. Jean describes efforts already underway, including expanding ditch work, asking the agglomeration to improve drainage capacity, and seeking dredging work along Meadowbrook Creek. He also explains how changes in surrounding development and increased hard surfaces have created more runoff that ends up in the drainage system. The city is studying both immediate fixes and longer-term ideas, including sponge park concepts that could help absorb excess water during major storms.A Vision for the Next YearLooking ahead, Mayor St. Jean says he hopes that by this time next year the city will have greater clarity around zoning, density, and the broader planning framework for Beaconsfield's future. He also hopes the city's major infrastructure projects, especially the cultural centre and Rec Centre, will be well underway, on schedule, and on budget.A Call for Residents to Stay InvolvedTo close the episode, Mayor St. Jean encourages residents to stay engaged, attend council meetings, join consultative processes, and reach out to City Hall directly. The conversation ends with a clear message: Beaconsfield is entering an important period of change, and residents have an opportunity to help shape what comes next.
Inclusive Mormonism: Inside Mormon Legacy Ministries Justin Francom thinks every Mormon Church is the true church. He shares a vision of surprisingly inclusive Mormonism, challenging the rigid boundaries and schisms that usually divide the various Latter-day Saint factions. https://youtu.be/Px-PJVAdOHs Don't miss our other conversations on Mormon fundamentalism: https://gospeltangents.com/denominations/fundamentalim/ Copyright © 2026 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved Award-winning authors Universalist View of True Church Francom holds a radically universalist view of the priesthood, believing that the mainstream LDS Church, the AUB, the FLDS, Centennial Park, and the Peterson Group all possess valid priesthood authority. When asked if these groups are apostate, he frankly notes that “we’re all apostate to a certain degree.” He asserts that no single church is perfectly true or completely false; rather, God respects human agency and expects mortals to make mistakes as they figure things out. Drawing on his deep love for both American and South Korean cultures, Francom argues that God loves diversity and that heaven itself will feature a rich diversity of cultures. Therefore, different worship styles and branches of Mormonism should be able to coexist as long as they are coming unto Christ. Missouri Temple Community Francom also elaborates on the independent fundamentalist community out in Missouri. They hold regular Sunday meetings, separating for Priesthood instruction and coming together for a unified Sacrament meeting. In a beautiful display of peace, they even hold shared meetings on fifth Sundays with the local mainstream LDS congregation and other fundamentalist factions. To avoid theological conflict, they simply omit the physical sacrament ordinance during these shared gatherings. The community operates strictly on a voluntary basis, with no mandated tithing, even when it comes to funding and maintaining their newly built temple. To prevent the rise of authoritarian “kings” or a “one man” leader, the temple council is a rotating body where members serve two-year terms before being replaced by a priesthood vote. Remarkably, the temple is open to individuals from other Mormon branches—including mainstream LDS members—who wish to experience the original 1840s endowment, provided they are there for sincere religious reasons rather than just “temple tourism.” Bridging the Gap: Mormon Legacy Ministries Recognizing that many Latter-day Saints are losing their faith over modern policy issues and discarding their testimonies entirely, Francom helped launch a brand-new initiative: Mormon Legacy Ministries (MLM). Francom observed that the mainstream LDS Church excels at missionary work and discipling members, while fundamentalists have successfully preserved early doctrines like plural marriage and the Adam-God theory. MLM seeks to bring the best of both worlds together. Described as an “ecumenical Mormon church,” MLM serves as a floating organization or waypoint for independent Mormons. Currently operating primarily over Zoom with Joshua Erickson serving as bishop, MLM is designed as a safe haven where individuals don’t have to swear loyalty to “one man” or strict dogmas. It bridges the gap for those who feel the mainstream LDS Church is no longer working for them, but who still want to hold onto core restoration truths without the intense leap of joining an insular fundamentalist compound. Francom's vision is a refreshing departure from the fighting that usually defines Mormon history. And the paradigm shifts don’t stop there. In the next episode, Francom plans to discuss overturning the fundamentalist priesthood ban on Black members, boldly stating that Brigham Young simply made a mistake.

Spiritual Libertarians and the “Not Group”: Inside Independent Mormon Fundamentalism I sat down with Justin Francom for a deep dive into his “not group,” a unique, largely misunderstood faction of Mormon fundamentalism. Francom sheds light on a fiercely independent community of believers who have built their own temple and completely rejected traditional authoritarian hierarchies. https://youtu.be/1B0qjVPxlcM Don't miss our other conversations on Mormon fundamentalism: https://gospeltangents.com/denominations/fundamentalim/ Copyright © 2026 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved Award-winning authors Rejecting the “One Man” Doctrine At the heart of this Missouri movement is a complete rejection of the “One Man” doctrine—the belief that a single leader holds all the keys and dictates the faith. Most fundamentalist groups trace their priesthood to an 1886 meeting with John Taylor, but Francom notes that true authority actually stems from the ordinance of the Second Anointing. Joseph Musser, a prominent early fundamentalist, realized that this specific ordinance—not a formal church structure—was the key to preserving the priesthood. The Second Anointing confers the “fullness of the priesthood,” allowing individuals to perform sealings. According to Francom's reading of Section 132 of the Doctrine and Covenants, this power is conferred strictly “one at a time.” Historically, early temple presidents even coordinated between the St. George and Logan temples to ensure these ordinances were performed sequentially, never simultaneously, to maintain this sacred symbolism. Thompsonite Connection How did this specific priesthood authority reach the independent believers in Missouri? The lineage traces back to Joe Thompson, a former council member of the Apostolic United Brethren (AUB.) Thompson strongly believed in perpetuating the fullness of the priesthood and building temples, which clashed with the leadership style of Owen Allred, who wanted to consolidate power and close temples. After being excommunicated from the AUB under allegedly spurious charges, Thompson relocated to Arizona, continuing to administer these ordinances to aligned families. Decades later, a man named Robert LeFever brought this “Thompsonite” priesthood authority from Arizona to a group of independent families gathering in Missouri. The Missouri “Not Group” The community in Missouri playfully refers to itself as a “not-group” made up of “spiritually libertarians.” They are a hodgepodge of fundamentalist refugees—exiles from the AUB, Centennial Park, and even former mainstream LDS converts. Having witnessed the rampant abuse of centralized power in other sects, they prefer to operate as independent families working together without a singular boss. Driven by a 40-year-old prophetic vision, these independent families successfully built and dedicated a beautiful temple in Missouri, complete with a stunning echoing star dome in the Celestial room. Their temple work truly flourished once LeFever arrived to administer the fullness of the priesthood. The “Application Layer” of Faith As a computer scientist, Francom beautifully summarizes this decentralized theology by comparing church organization to software. He views worship culture as the “application layer” of faith. Just as the various branches of the Eastern Orthodox Church operate independently with different styles but maintain the same core authority, Mormon factions can worship differently too. Whether a congregation allows spontaneous scripture commentary, uses a tea kettle for the sacrament, or practices loud Pentecostal-style worship, Francom believes it is all perfectly valid—as long as the core priesthood ordinances remain pure and intact. Ultimately, this community proves that for some, faith isn’t about swearing allegiance to one man, but rather preserving sacred ordinances and working together as equals.

Rick Bennett asks the hard questions about gender and race within independent fundamentalism. Do women bless the sick? The Erickson family—Joshua, Melissa, and Charlotte—discuss the reality of “patriarchal” polygamy, refuting the stereotype of oppressed, silent wives. Melissa Erickson opens up about her personal experience performing healing blessings by the laying on of hands. The group also tackles the controversial topic of Black priesthood holders in fundamentalism, their support for the inclusive “Missouri Temple” group, and Melissa's unique scriptural interpretation of the “One Man” rule in D&C 132. https://youtu.be/xfeTRIw8iw0 Don’t miss our other conversations on Mormon fundamentalism: https://gospeltangents.com/denominations/fundamentalim/ Here are 5 engaging titles and detailed show notes for Episode 1125, based on the provided transcript. • Debunking the “Silent Wife” Stereotype Melissa and Charlotte push back against the idea that plural wives are “brainwashed, stupid, or oppressed.” Instead, they describe their marriage as a single “unit” that shifts and adapts. For example, when Melissa is in midwifery training or Joshua is editing scriptures, the other spouses pick up the slack. They emphasize that plural marriage should be cooperative, not competitive. • Women Bless the Sick Rick asks if women can perform ordinances if the husband is incapacitated. Melissa reveals that she has blessed the sick by the laying on of hands, noting there is historical precedent for it. She distinguishes this from the sacrament; she views healing as an emergency act of faith, whereas the sacrament is administrative and can wait for a priesthood holder. Interestingly, they would be more comfortable receiving the sacrament from a married woman than a 12-year-old deacon. • Race and the Priesthood The Ericksons discuss their openness to Black polygamists, a stance that separates them from many other fundamentalist groups. They praise the independent temple in Missouri for allowing mixed-race individuals to enter, even though other groups claim this “desecrates” the temple. Joshua argues that while he believes priesthood is for Israelites, anyone can become an Israelite. • Racism: Thoughts vs. Actions The group discusses the nature of sin and racism. Melissa argues that how you act matters more than what you feel or think. She shares a story from a mainstream LDS ward where members gossiped about a South American sister making tamales with lard, using it as an example of cultural offense that bordered on racism. She concludes that “gossip is less kosher” than lard. • Reinterpreting the “One Man” Rule (D&C 132) Melissa provides a unique exegesis of D&C 132:7, which states the keys are conferred on “never but one on the earth at a time.” She interprets this not as a dictatorship where only one man holds authority, but as a procedural instruction that ordination happens one person at a time—similar to how Jacob blessed his sons individually rather than as a group. ——————————————————————————– 00:00 – The “Patriarchal” Stereotype Rick asks if the man does all the talking while women sit quietly. Melissa explains how their family operates as a fluid “unit” rather than a hierarchy. 04:00 – Co-Parenting and the “Cookie System” The benefits of three parents: the children can seek out the parent whose personality matches their current need, though they also try to game the system to get extra treats. 07:30 – Women Healing the Sick Melissa confirms she has administered to the sick by the laying on of hands. A discussion ensues on the difference between emergency blessings (faith) and the sacrament (authority). 12:00 – Centennial Park's Yearly Sacrament Rick shares a story about the Centennial Park group instituting a yearly public sacrament meeting specifically for women who do not have a priesthood holder in their home. 16:00 – Black Polygamists & The Missouri Temple The Ericksons affirm they would welcome Black polygamists. They discuss the controversy surrounding the independent temple in Missouri allowing Black people to participate. 21:00 – The Tamale Incident: Acting Above Your Instincts A discussion on whether feeling racist is a sin. Melissa argues that maturity is treating neighbors with love regardless of internal biases, sharing a story about a ward dispute over tamales. 31:00 – The “One Man” Myth in D&C 132 Melissa reads the famous “one man” scripture and reinterprets it as a description of individual ordination (like Patriarchal blessings) rather than exclusive authority.

In Part 3 of the Olympic Park bombing series, Sheryl McCollum talks with Dana Jewell about her husband’s life before, during, and after the bombing. Dana shares what Richard endured during “88 days of hell,” the paranoia and betrayal that followed, and how lawsuits, illness, and media attacks shaped his final years. She remembers his love of law enforcement, the toll of nightmares, and the injustice that haunted him. Dana also reflects on Clint Eastwood’s film Richard Jewell and the lasting impact of her husband’s story. Dana Jewell is the widow of Richard Jewell, the security guard who found the bomb at Centennial Olympic Park in 1996. Over 88 days, Richard lived under FBI suspicion and intense media scrutiny before being cleared. Dana continues to share Richard’s legacy, reminding the world of the cost of rushing to judgment.

INXS fans are in for another treat with Part Two of our fascinating deep dive with the inimitable Gary Grant who joined the INXS family in 1981. His contribution was as large as any in ensuring INXS' business affairs, touring and promotional efforts were A grade in every way. A great storyteller, we get fascinating insights into the game-changing tour with Adam Ant in 1983, why Australian band Managers were so successful globally and numerous anecdotes about a time and place when music was front and centre in people's entertainment consciousness. Gary generously shares the remarkable relationship and teamwork with Chris Murphy followed by the unfortunate fallout that culminated in the Concert for Life at Centennial Park in March 1992 with Gary departing the INXS family. Not one to rest on his laurels, Gary was able to parlay his skills into venue management whereby he spearheaded Sydney's Luna Park's foray into concert hosting. A role that would last over a dozen years and coincidentally saw him hosting INXS' 2006 Sydney gigs with JD Fortune and the Switch Tour. We get Bee's counterpoint “Pleasure and Pain” list from 1981, a special news section with some famous September birthdays (hello) plus an iconic tribute song that celebrates its 40th anniversary.

I'm excited to welcome John Hamer back to the show. John is a Seventy in the Community of Christ and a remarkable historian of Restoration Churches. Earlier this month, he was in Utah for the 50th Anniversary of Sunstone, and today we'll be talking about the many ways to Mormon, including some of the Restoration Churches/schismatic groups that were represented at Sunstone. This episode will be part of a broader conversation about various Latter Day Saint schismatic movements. Join us for the discussion! https://youtu.be/1-hvle_929o Don't miss our other episodes with John Hamer! https://gospeltangents.com/people/john-hamer/ Copyright © 2025 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved Exploring the "Multiple Ways to Mormon" at Sunstone's 50th Anniversary The recent 50th anniversary of the Sunstone Symposium in Utah provided a unique opportunity to delve into the rich and diverse landscape of the Mormon culture and restoration heritage. John Hamer is a three-time guest on Gospel Tangents and a Seventy with the Community of Christ. Sunstone serves as an "open diverse forum" that welcomes individuals from all backgrounds, whether they are orthodox LDS, fundamentalists, or members of the Community of Christ. This gathering truly embodies the idea that there is "more than one way to Mormon". There are various schismatic groups that emerged after the pivotal 1844 schism which Joseph Smith died. These groups form distinct branches of the restoration tradition, each with its own unique history and practices. Major Restoration Churches of the Restoration Following the 1844 schism, two primary branches emerged: The Brighamite Branch: This branch is by far the largest expression of the restoration tradition. It includes: ◦ The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). ◦ All of the fundamentalist churches, such as the Apostolic United Brethren (AUB) which is also called “The Work”, & the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS Church). ◦ The "new emerging remnant movement" with Denver Snuffer. The Josephite Branch: Named for Joseph Smith III, this branch includes the Community of Christ, formerly known as the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Within the Josephite tradition, there are also: ◦ Independent expressions or "restorationists". These groups broke away from the mainline Community of Christ Church over issues like women in the priesthood and lineal succession. Some of these have grouped together in a confederacy of churches, like the Joint Conference of Restoration Branches (JCRB. See our interview with apostle Patrick McKay.) ◦ The Remnant Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, which is considered a "restorationist church" by Josephites. Figures like Terry Patience, the new prophet-president, and Jim Vun Cannon have been prominent within this church. (Jim now leads a different church, the Everlasting Church of Jesus Christ in the Latter Day.) These "Josephite fundamentalists" are distinct from polygamists. Lesser-Known but Significant Restoration Churches Sunstone also provides a platform for understanding smaller, yet historically significant, schismatic groups: The Bickertonites (Church of Jesus Christ with headquarters in Monongahela, Pennsylvania): ◦ They are generally considered the third largest branch to emerge after the 1844 schism, with an estimated 25,000 members. ◦ They see themselves as "the true one true church" and are noted for retaining spiritual gifts from the Kirtland era, including speaking in tongues and spontaneous services. Their services feature spontaneous talks and no pre-written bulletins, similar to practices found in the Centennial Park group. ◦ Their heartlands are primarily in Pittsburgh and Detroit. ◦ Notably, they have recently produced an academically trained historian, Daniel Stone, who has focused on William Bickerton and their own history.

Good Morning Nashville ☀️ NEW WEEK NEW EPISODE! We're excited to have you guys here listening in to the Black Men Vent Too Podcast. One day, we want to be the one stop shop in Nashville for any man, regardless of their ethnical background, to know that we have resources readily available whenever there is a need for them. Whether you're white, black, blue or purple, mental health is real. And we honor that here every week with our guests on our platform. With that said … let's dive into today's episode! If you've followed us for a while, then you know to not let our podcast name fool you. We embrace ANY man who needs our platform, but we naturally as black men stand for OUR men above anything else. We love to bring a variety of guests on the show, to emphasize how mental health affects us all … not just our culture of men. Presenting to some and introducing to others, he's as smooth as butter and cooler than the other side of the pillow, we're excited to bring our guy “Music City Matte” to the show! ⭐️ Matt comes to our platform and vents on the passion he has behind being a father to his two boys. Fatherhood did not start off ideally for Matt, as he talks about being in back and forth custody battles for almost 5 years of his son's life. A native of Florida, Matt talks about his time in prison and how that 10 year setback made things more challenging for him down the line, especially when it comes to navigating through court processes. Research shows that fathers, no matter the ethicist or racial ground, have made transformative efforts in being present and active in their children's lives. But for some reason, Matt's story is like that of many fathers. When we as man are told to “fight for our children”, is this what the fight looks like? Is this what we as men have to endure … just to be in the lives of children we help create? Today's episode is a good one, lock in and don't miss it! ✌

In 1996, the Summer Olympics were held in Atlanta, Georgia. On July 27th, thousands had gathered at Centennial Park for a late night concert. The FBI was told that a tip was called into 911 saying that a bomb would go off in the park within 30 minutes. A search ensued, and the bomb was located by security guard Richard Jewell. An evacuation was ordered, but three minutes into it, the bomb detonated. Two people died as a result of the bombing and 111 others were injured. The person responsible wouldn't be captured until 2003, but before that, Richard Jewell was cast as the hero, then, unjustly the villain in the bombing. ***TRIGGER WARNING*** Terrorism (Bombing) | Anti-LGBTQ Violence | Anti-Abortion Violence Hang with us: Follow Us on Instagram Like Us on Facebook Join our Case Discussion Group on Facebook Get Killer Queens Merch Bonus Episodes Support Our AMAZING Sponsors: ExpressVPN: So stop missing out on great TV and get thousands of new shows with ExpressVPN—we got them to give you guys three extra months free when you use our special link ExpressVPN.com/queens.
