Patrick takes listener questions on everything from cremation and relics to the practicalities of annulments and maintaining gratitude within parish life, all while weaving in scriptural roots and clear, approachable Catholic teaching. He answers with straightforward advice for handling marriage complexities, faith discussions with non-Catholic family, and screening media for kids, offering his own reflections as a practicing Catholic. Plentiful encouragement and real-life examples flow throughout, with the conversation shifting swiftly from doctrine to day-to-day encouragement and resources. William (email) - Would the Church have a mass for the deceased if they knew the ashes we not going to be interned but spread out somewhere? (00:59) Jim (email) - As a resident of Massachusetts and a member of Massachusetts Citizens for Life I want to thank you for standing up for the unborn, especially in light of the recent legislation passed in the Commonwealth. Thank you for speaking so clearly and directly about the barbaric and unthinkable act of ending the life of a fully developed unborn baby. You courageously shed light on the gravity and magnitude these actions have on those perpetrating them including Governor Healey. I pray she listens to your show, but wouldn't count on it. Maybe one day! (02:30) Angela (email) - Listener responses unfairly implied the woman wanted recognition for her generous gift rather than a simple thank-you for an act of kindness, a courtesy priests should model and that I, too, have been denied. Miriam (email) - 1. I believe you've previously said that there will be food in heaven. But will we get hungry? I assume we won't, but if we don't, will the food taste as good to us as it would if we were ravenous? 2. Christ was a Jew. But at any point in time did He become a Christian? And if so, when? And if not, why not? Rodney - What Scripture supports spreading saints body parts around as relics? (11:46) Antoinette - They are building a Mormon Church adjacent to my backyard. Can I put a Relevant Radio banner on my fence. Would this be a good idea? (19:37) Margie - I was married in the Church, got divorced and did not get an annulment. My second husband passed. Priest said I didn't need annulment. Is this true? (23:50) Tom - My wife was married outside of the Church. Do we need an annulment? (26:52) Kevin (email) – What is a good resource for screening kids’ books through a Catholic lens? (38:23) Molly - Can we pray the Rosary and make our own mysteries up? Is that a sin? (41:46) Lucas - I went through the annulment process last year and wanted to encourage people that it is worth it. (43:41)

As Christian nationalism tightens its grip on the nation's politics, a new crop of progressive candidates is putting faith front and center. From James Talarico to Abdul El-Sayed, the religious left is making a more explicit play for political power (and challenging the idea that Republicans get to own God). Can religious progressives provide an effective counterweight to Christian nationalism, or are we just inviting more religion into a political system that could use a lot less of it? Also on the show: Christians find God on both sides of the fight over massive AI data centers; Florida's attorney general picks a fight with Catholic schools over vaccine exemptions; the Arizona Supreme Court hands the Mormon Church a win in a horrific child-abuse case; anti-Muslim opposition to a proposed mosque lands an Oklahoma city in court; new data reveals just how differently Mormons practice their religion around the world; and Texas' mandatory Ten Commandments displays face a new legal challenge.

In Episode 80 of our LDS Discussions series, Julia, Kolby, and Nemo the Mormon join together for a deep dive into one of the most significant financial controversies in modern Latter-day Saint history: Ensign Peak Advisors and the SEC's investigation into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The discussion begins by examining what Ensign Peak Advisors is, why the Church created an enormous investment reserve, and whether maintaining such a fund is inherently problematic. From there, the panel walks through the timeline leading up to the 2019 whistleblower revelations and the 2023 SEC Order, exploring the Church's filing practices, the creation of 13 shell companies, and the legal findings that concluded the Church intentionally obscured the size of its investment portfolio. Along the way, we analyze statements from Church leaders including Roger Clarke, Christopher Waddell, Elder Ballard, Elder Packer, Joseph F. Smith, Lorenzo Snow, and others, comparing modern financial practices with historical teachings on tithing. We also discuss the evolution of tithing slips, the Church's growing investment portfolio, estimates of annual tithing revenue, David Nielsen's whistleblower allegations, and the ethical implications of the Church's financial secrecy. Finally, the panel examines the SEC's findings in detail, asking difficult questions about honesty, accountability, transparency, and whether a church that teaches integrity should be held to the same legal and ethical standards it expects of its members. This episode provides one of the most comprehensive examinations of the Ensign Peak controversy, combining historical documents, SEC records, Church statements, and primary sources to better understand what happened –and why it matters. If you enjoy these in-depth historical analyses, please like, subscribe, and share this episode.

What Can Christians Learn from the Mormon Church?It might seem strange to ask this on a podcast usually dedicated to exposing the doctrinal and historical flaws of Mormonism. But while we remain uncompromising on biblical truth, we have to ask: Are there things the LDS Church simply does better than many Christian churches?Drawing from 27 years of ministry in Utah, pastor and host Bryan breaks down 4 powerful principles that ministry leaders and churchgoers can glean from their Mormon neighbors. From creating a "high bar" culture to relentlessly prioritizing the family, we explore how to elevate our commitment to Christ without falling into the trap of legalism.In this episode, we discuss:The High Bar Culture: Why lowering the bar makes it too easy for people to walk away from the church.Prioritizing the Family: Shifting the spiritual burden from church programs back to the home.Proactive Community Support: Building a structural safety net so no one falls through the cracks.Shared Identity: Overcoming Christian infighting to build a unified front for the gospel.Read the full article and get the group discussion guide at pursueGOD.org: What Can Christians Learn from the Mormon Church?--The Unveiling Mormonism podcast pulls back the curtain on Mormon history, culture and doctrine.

Content Warning: self harm, brief mention of child SA** From forced Molly Mormon into rockstar, Irene discusses what her life was like being raised in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormonism) and the extreme manipulation tactics that were used to keep members active. She attended the Mormon university BYU and served a mission in Honduras, before meeting someone who completely changed her life and helped open her eyes to the cult mentality she was in. She reflects on a range of difficult and controversial experiences from that period—everything from emotional strain and feelings of pressure, to her perspective on the intense expectations placed on missionaries and the leadership interviews she describes as deeply uncomfortable.These stories have sparked discussion about missionary life, boundaries, authority, and the psychological impact of high-control environments.This video is intended as a compilation and commentary on her publicly shared experiences and reflections.If you found this interesting, consider subscribing for more breakdowns of mission stories, personal narratives, and discussions around religious life and culture.Irene's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@irenes.entropyPlease consider making a donation by joining our Patreon https://www.patreon.com/MormonNewsRoundup Email: kolob@mormonnewsroundup.org Website: https://mormonnewsroundup.org/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mormonnewsroundup Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mormon_news_roundup/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093511869924 X: https://twitter.com/NewsMormon New episodes LIVE every Sunday and Monday nights at 9:30PM ESTPlease like and subscribe and hit the notifications bell.

On today's episode of Mormon News, John Dehlin and Meggan Hayes break down another busy week of headlines involving The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.This week we take a closer look at Elder Ronald A. Rasband's patriotic address, where he claimed God preserved the United States for the Restoration, taught that Noah's Flood fractured the continents to protect the promised land, reaffirmed the Garden of Eden in Missouri, and described America as a stepping stone to eternal life. We'll also discuss the Church's invitation for members worldwide to participate in a unified fast for religious liberty.Next, we'll discuss a federal lawsuit alleging that Utah prison guards sexually assaulted female inmates, including allegations that one correctional officer's LDS temple garments were found in an inmate's cell and questions about whether prison leaders attempted to cover up the abuse.We'll also examine the Church's announcement that it is creating 55 new missions, what "new" actually means, why Africa is receiving nearly one-third of them, and the decision to lower the missionary age for women from 19 to 18.We'll cover the case of a Rexburg man accused of setting his parents' home on fire after allegedly telling police God instructed him to do it, raising questions about revelation, mental illness, and claims of divine communication.We'll also discuss the dedication of the new Nauvoo Temple Visitors' Center, including the Church's installation of a historic Tiffany stained-glass window that sold at auction for $237,500.Next, we'll examine the plea agreement involving former LDS Young Men leader Virgil Larson, accused of giving nude massages to minors, and why the amended charges would allow him to avoid registering as a sex offender.Finally, we'll discuss the viral video: Did the Mormon Church pass the test? We'll explore what that conversation reveals about missionaries and training around child safety in the church.Join us live as we provide context behind the headlines, separate fact from speculation, and discuss what these stories reveal about Mormonism today.Show NotesYouTubeMormon Stories Thanks Our Generous Donors!Help us continue to deliver quality content by becoming a donor today:One-time or recurring donation through DonorboxSupport us on PatreonPayPalVenmoOur Platforms:YouTubePatreonSpotifyApple PodcastsContact us:MormonStories@gmail.comPO Box 171085, Salt Lake City, UT 84117Social Media:Insta: @mormstoriesTikTok: @mormonstoriespodcastJoin the Discord

The Supreme Court just struck down President Trump's executive order on birthright citizenship in a 5-4 decision — and if you care about what this means for border security and the value of American citizenship, you need to see this before the media spin it their way. In the Supreme Court birthright citizenship ruling, the majority said the 14th Amendment requires citizenship for nearly everyone born on U.S. soil, including children of illegal immigrants and birth tourists. This keeps alive a policy that many argue rewards illegal entry and fuels birth tourism, with estimates of over 250,000 such births annually. Taxpayers end up covering costs for education, health care, and welfare programs tied to these citizenship grants. The Trump birthright citizenship order was an attempt to close what critics call a massive loophole in immigration enforcement. Dissenting justices pushed back hard, saying this stretches the Constitution beyond its post-Civil War purpose of securing rights for newly freed slaves. President Trump noted that with the legal process complete, Congress now has a clearer path to legislation that could limit birthright citizenship going forward. For regular Americans who want immigration laws that actually work and citizenship that isn't diluted, this ruling raises big questions about how much the courts can lock in policy versus what elected representatives can still do.

1. HEART OF THE MATTER 1A. Record-Breaking Missionary Numbers — Pres. Oaks at New Mission Leader Seminar At the 2026 Seminar for New Mission Leaders (June 18–21, Provo MTC), President Dallin H. Oaks announced that the Church will soon have the largest number of full-time missionaries in its history, surpassing the current 87,000+ serving worldwide. The surge is driven by the first wave of 18-year-old sister missionaries (following the November policy change lowering the minimum age from 19) and the addition of 55 new missions in July, bringing the global total to 506. President Oaks outlined three characteristics defining the restored Church: (1) the fulness of doctrine (including eternal marriage between a man and a woman); (2) priesthood authority and keys; and (3) a unique testimony of Christ grounded in modern revelation and the First Vision. Sister Kristin Oaks also spoke, sharing six core truths missionaries teach.

New Hymn ‘Welcome Home’ — The Story Behind It Composer Andrea Brett explains how a 2017 encounter with Demetrius O’Neal — a recent convert serving as a greeter at a Spokane ward on a snowy Sunday morning — inspired her hymn ‘Welcome Home,’ now published in the new Hymns for Home and Church. Brett submitted 10 pieces when the global hymnbook was announced in 2018; this was the only one she’d written before the call. She received confirmation of its selection in February 2025, then had a full-circle moment when she and O’Neal sat near each other at the April 2025 General Conference as the Tabernacle Choir performed it. O’Neal’s name appears in the hymn’s tune name as a tribute. The hymn is now translated and sung globally. Source: Church Newsroom / Richie’s document 1C. Family History Records Are a ‘Sacred Thread’ — Elder Bragg at International Archivists Congress Elder Mark A. Bragg, General Authority Seventy and executive director of the Church’s Family History Department and FamilySearch International, was a keynote speaker at the III Congress of Archivists: Digital Archive Expo (DA-EXPO), held June 8–12 in Astana, Kazakhstan. He called family history records ‘the thin but sacred thread’ tying people together across generations, and argued that records are ‘in a very real sense, witnesses.’ Elder Bragg framed the digital revolution in genealogy in moral terms: for most of history, access to records was shaped by ‘proximity, resources and specialized knowledge,’ but today a record created in one place can be preserved in another, indexed in a third, and discovered by someone on the other side of the world. ‘The reach is astonishing. The speed is breathtaking. The possibilities are almost beyond measure.’ He also said that ‘access is an act of kindness’ — records only fulfill their divine purpose when they are found, understood, and used. His core message: preserving memory is an act of hope. ‘It says that the past is not dead to us and that the future deserves more than fragments.’ Source: Church News, June 17, 2026 Angle: Great ‘quiet but meaningful’ story — LDS family history going global and leveling the playing field for genealogy worldwide. 1D. America Gives — All 50 States Receive Food Donations The Church completed a milestone in its ‘America Gives’ initiative by delivering a shipping container of food to Hilo, Hawaii — marking all 50 states reached. The initiative aims to deliver 250 truckloads of food nationwide in 2026 to celebrate the U.S. 250th anniversary. In Hawaii, the food went to The Food Basket, distributed to 10 local nonprofits. Notably, 42% of residents on the island of Hawaii face food insecurity — the state’s highest rate. Rosie Rios, chair of America 250 and former U.S. Treasurer, praised the milestone. Local Methodist pastor Ted Lesnett said recipients will know ‘when they were hungry, someone cared.’ Source: Church Newsroom / Richie’s document 1E. Church Donates $250,000 NZD to Christchurch Anglican Cathedral Rebuild The Church announced a NZ$250,000 donation (June 19, 2026) toward the restoration of Christchurch’s iconic Anglican Cathedral — damaged in the February 2011 earthquake. Elder Peter F. Meurs (Pacific Area President) and Anglican Bishop Peter Carrell presided at the announcement. The donation comes as the project faces a $45M funding shortfall and an overall $219M budget. The Christchurch City Council has offered $15M contingent on government and Anglican Church matches. Notably, a New Zealand Buddhist community made a similar gift in 2023 — the LDS donation continues a cross-faith pattern of support for the heritage project.

Central America Humanitarian Blitz — 5 Projects, 500,000+ People In late May and early June 2026, the Church announced five humanitarian projects across Central America (with Sister J. Anette Dennis, First Counselor in the Relief Society General Presidency, representing the Church). Projects include: the ‘Windows of Light’ eyecare program in El Salvador (350,000+ screenings to date); safe water access for 250,000+ in Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua (with UNICEF); nearly 750 computers/tablets donated to 66 educational institutions in Guatemala; and medical equipment for the ‘La Mascota’ children’s hospital in Nicaragua.

Todd Christofferson: He offered the invocation at Becket’s Canterbury Medal Gala in Philadelphia (multifaith event celebrating religious liberty), alongside Elder Gary E. Stevenson and others. The group also visited the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall — fitting, ahead of America’s 250th. Christofferson reflected on D&C 101 and the Constitution’s purpose to protect ‘all flesh.’ From Philadelphia, he and Sister Christofferson traveled to Toronto, meeting 250+ missionaries in the Canada Toronto Mission weeks before it divides into three missions (Toronto West, Toronto East, and Montreal). He also spoke to hundreds of LDS youth, with one — Amelia Fischer — saying ‘no amount of words can describe how I felt tonight.’ Source: Richie’s document / Church Newsroom 2B. BYU Scholar Study: Religion Adds 7.6 Years to Life The BYU Wheatley Institute is releasing three reports analyzing 3,000 of the most scientifically rigorous studies (culled from 60,000+ papers by Duke University) on religion and health. Key findings: 33/34 studies show improved social health; 10/11 show improved mental health; 7/8 show improved physical health. Regular worshippers live an average of 7.6 years longer (up to 13.7 years longer for African Americans). A ‘landmark finding’: 256 studies show religion prevents/aids recovery from substance abuse (vs. 6 showing negative impact). Author Loren Marks recommends public health frameworks treat religious involvement like exercise recommendations. Source: Richie’s document 2C. Elder Soares Testifies in the Philippines Elder Ulisses Soares completed a two-week ministry in the Philippines (mid-May 2026), meeting with 600+ young single adults in Cebu, 450+ in Quezon City, and 340+ missionaries at the Philippines MTC. His recurring message: ‘His arms are extended to all of us.’ The Philippines has more than 905,000 Latter-day Saints — the Church’s fourth-largest national membership. Two new temples were also dedicated in the Philippines this month: the Davao Philippines Temple (Elder Renlund, May 3) and the Bacolod Philippines Temple (Elder Andersen, May 31).

Peck has reportedly become the first Latter-day Saint author included in the prestigious Everyman’s Library series (publishing canonical English fiction since 1906). His 2012 novella A Short Stay in Hell — a philosophical horror story about a Mormon man condemned to an afterlife library containing every possible book — went viral on BookTok and found a new audience. A literature historian noted: ‘No Mormon or Mormon-adjacent writer that I know of has ever been featured in this prestigious series.’ The Salt Lake Tribune covered the story, noting the irony that a theological horror story marks one of the most significant moments in LDS literary history.

The Sasine Family — 40 Countries Before Age 1 Keith and Chelsea Sasine, an LDS couple stationed in Germany (Keith is an Army oral surgeon), made history in November 2025 by taking their youngest daughter Mia to 40 countries before her first birthday (March–November 2025), using a Honda Odyssey for European road trips. The family of six (including Izzy, 10; Abby, 9; and John, 4) attends local wards wherever they travel — a faith anchor the couple says strengthened their testimony and taught their kids the importance of the Sabbath globally. They’re planning a move to Colorado Springs in 2026. Source: Richie’s document 3C.

She shared the news on Instagram captioned ‘Chapter Four.

In this episode, I talk about a powerful video from a creator known as Beeba the Beautiful, where she reflects on her experience with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and why some people choose to leave — while others stay.She shares her personal journey of serving a mission and eventually stepping away from the faith. The video is honest, emotional, and thought-provoking, offering a grounded look at belief, identity, and change.You can check out her channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@BebathebeautifulI wanted to highlight it here because it raises important questions about faith journeys and the different paths people take when reevaluating what they believe.Whether you're still in, out, or somewhere in between, it's a story worth hearing.Please consider making a donation by joining our Patreon https://www.patreon.com/MormonNewsRoundup Email: kolob@mormonnewsroundup.org Website: https://mormonnewsroundup.org/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mormonnewsroundup Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mormon_news_roundup/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093511869924 X: https://twitter.com/NewsMormon New episodes LIVE every Sunday and Monday nights at 9:30PM ESTPlease like and subscribe and hit the notifications bell.

In the early 2000’s David Archuleta broke into stardome on American Idol, capturing the hearts of millions. But behind the scenes he was grappling with his sexuality and faith. “I felt like if people found this out about me, they would know how dirty I was,” he told Maria Hinojosa when talking about what the Mormon Church made him feel, early on, when he began to realize he could be gay. In a new memoir, David reveals his journey to fame and how he has worked to embrace his authentic self. Listen to this intimate conversation about his journey and what his faith looks like today.

The Mormon Church keeps telling us it is growing. And not only is it growing, they say it is growing faster than it has ever grown in history! And yet faithful Mormon researcher Jeff Strong says the LDS Church has lost 40 % of its active membership in the last twenty-five years. How will the Church react now that its generation-long deception is being revealed? And what will the Mormon influences do who have repeated and championed the lies told them by the Church they seek to defend? Time will tell. In the meanwhile, Bill and RFM are going to take a victory lap on this issue, because they have been calling out the Church on this deception for as long as they have been podcasting. Finally RFM and Bill Reel are vindicated!!!

Ian Wilks was a high-ranking leader of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He is a former bishop, a former branch president, and a member of the stake presidency in British Columbia, with responsibility for shepherding twelve congregations and thousands of members. Then-apostle Dallin H. Oaks, now the 18th president and living prophet of the LDS Church, personally recruited him, interviewed him, called him, set him apart, and trained him into that role.¹ For 37 years, Ian devoted his entire life to his church. He paid tithing on his gross income. He sealed his marriage in the London Temple. He conducted hundreds of worthiness interviews. He trained bishops. He stood at pulpits and at altars. He made sacred covenants in the temple to give all he had, including his own life if required, for the building up of the kingdom on earth. In a snowstorm, the cost of those 37 years lands all at once. The thing he wanted most to be true, he learned was untrue. I spoke with Ian on my podcast Cults, Culture & Coercion and in a recent livestream. He is the co-host of the Inside Out podcast with Jim Bennett, son of the late US Senator Bob Bennett. What he told me confirms what former members of the LDS Church have been describing to me since my first book was published in 1988. The Mormon Church meets every criterion of an authoritarian cult under my BITE Model of Authoritarian Control™ and sits on the destructive end of my Influence Continuum©. Ian himself took the BITE Model self-test based on his decades of experience and scored the church at roughly 85 to 90 percent across the four dimensions of behavior, information, thought, and emotion. This group is one of the wealthiest, most influential groups in politics and its believers are over represented (compared to all other faith groups) in our FBI, CIA, Homeland security and faithful people will follow the direction of the Prophet over the Constitution (even though they swear an oath to uphold the Constitution) which should make all Americans worry.

Original Air Date: Oct 17, 2018 Today we look into Nazi spacecraft and the Mormon Church's take on Bigfoot! The Vril Society was a occultic group that gained power during the Nazi regime. Channeling aliens, building spacecraft, and harnessing a powerful element known as "Vril." Did this group actually exist and if they did, where are they now? Then we travel back in time to Tennessee, where an early leader of the Mormon church had an encounter with Bigfoot. What does the Church think of this cryptid encounter? They think Bigfoot may be a legendary biblical character!

My friend Greg Prince (writer, scientist, businessman, philanthropist—see bio at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregory_Prince) joins us to talk about his book “Gay Rights and the Mormon Church: Intended Actions, Unintended Consequences” released in 2019. In this episode, Greg talks about the future—and what might be possible for LGBTQ Latter-day Saints. Greg talks about the process for other significant changes in our church and also shares thoughts on doctrine vs policy vs teachings. Thank you Greg for being on the podcast and all your efforts to bring more understanding and support for LGBTQ Latter-day Saints and their families.

Send us Fan MailVIDEO PODCASTIn our previous episode, we explored the simple, straightforward church that Jesus Christ established in the Book of Mormon, along with its clear and plain doctrine: repent, be baptized, receive the Holy Ghost, become as a little child, and endure to the end.Today, we turn our attention to 1830, when Joseph Smith declared himself a prophet, apostle, elder, and the sole spokesman for God. Although he was instructed to record the doctrines he received, the Book of Mormon records that Jesus Himself commanded His followers to write down His doctrine and warned them not to add to it.In this episode, we examine the significant additions that were later introduced, and we ask a serious question: Was Joseph Smith truly a prophet? And would a true prophet set aside or override the previous teachings of Jesus Christ?We'll share direct quotes from early church meetings that declared older revelations and doctrines outdated, claiming that new instructions were needed for a new time. Yet we maintain that God does not change, and neither does His word.By the end of this episode, we hope you'll clearly see the striking differences between the simple church described in the Book of Mormon and the modern church established by Joseph Smith. Restored Gospel  - Scripture Search and Study Resources Contact us:restoredgospelpodcast@gmail.comMusic by Michael Barrett

My friend Greg Prince (writer, scientist, businessman, philanthropist—see bio at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregory_Prince) joins us to talk about his book “Gay Rights and the Mormon Church: Intended Actions, Unintended Consequences” released in 2019. In this episode, Greg talks the legal efforts of the Church to stop same-sex marriage starting in Hawaii (1990), Proposition 22 (2000) and Proposition 8 (2008) in California, and other efforts—and the “Unintended Consequences” along the way. Greg takes us behind the screens to understand the Church role in and arguments against same-sex marriage—arguments that end up not being empirically defendable. Stung and surprised by the backlash against the Church for its role in Proposition 8, Greg shares the stories of reconciliation between both groups—and how that led to the Church's support for LGBTQ+ non-discrimination protections in Utah regarding housing and employment (SB296 in 2015). Greg talks about the Church support in 2023 for the Respect for Marriage Act—sending a General Authority Seventy for the signing of the bill at the White House. I believe it is important to understand the church's efforts against same sex marriage—and its ultimate support 32 years later for the Respect for Marriage Act. It helps me understand the needless pain for LGBTQ Latter-day Saints and their families largely driven by the culture and fearmongering of the day—and to also open our hearts and minds to future efforts to better support them. It also causes me to consider targeted groups today—like our LDS transgender friends—and not wanting to fall in the same pattern. Thank you Greg for being on the podcast and all your efforts to bring more understanding and support for LGBTQ Latter-day Saints and their families.

Our next Hoaks episode! But, before that! We go through a few select scriptures to see what the passages have to say about the modern Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. But that's not all! What do the scriptures have to say about the MAGA movement and our modern politics? We conclude that a person cannot be a believing Christian while supporting the Mormon Church or MAGA. The Bible contradicts both movements so deeply that they're irreconcilable. Then we dive into Pure in Heart. Oaks has a lot to say about materialism and pride, never saying any of it into a mirror. Then we have some happy news where Native American communities have successfully halted a drilling project on native lands.   Show Notes:  https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus%2020&version=NIV https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus%2022&version=NIV https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus%2019&version=NIV https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2019&version=NIV https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2020&version=NIV https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%205&version=NIV https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%2018&version=NIV https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%206&version=NIV   Sword of Laman: Pure In Heart, by Dallin H.

In today's episode, sisters Meggan and Julie share what it was like growing up in a family of 14 children in a very strict Mormon household. They describe a home built around structure, obedience, and high expectations: early morning scripture study, strict rules, limited privacy, and constant pressure to represent the “ideal” Mormon family. They each re-tell their own experiences growing up in this environment, and discuss why they found their relationship fractured for many years—then reveal how they re-kindled their relationship. They also each discuss their individual faith journeys and where they stand with their beliefs today.Topics/themes include:-Family dynamics-Authority and control in the home-Modesty and purity culture-Perfectionism, shame and worthiness-Faith transitionsMeggan is also the host of her own post-Mormon channel, Generally Unquotable, which can be found here.This episode is a beautiful example of bridge building and unconditional love, and we are very grateful to Meggan and Julie for sharing their story with us.___________________YouTubeAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.  Our overall mission is to: 1.

What do Disney, Ferrari, and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have in common? They're rather litigious when people do things they don't like. We go through the history of copyright and trademark to provide background for some notable recent lawsuits involving these companies. That launches us into a discussion about the recent lawsuit filed by the Mormon Church against John Dehlin, Mormon Stories, and the Open Stories Foundation. After that we talk about The Firm, a Tom Cruise movie where the good guy wins against the Mafia, a corrupt law firm, and the FBI. We end with some good news about targeting depression for treatment.   Show Notes:  https://copyrightalliance.org/copyright-law/copyright-act/ https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/appellate-courts/ca5/24-10900/24-10900-2024-10-20.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_copyright https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhBpI13dxkI https://copyright.gov/about/1790-copyright-act.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gWaAJR5L18 https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/constitution-transcript https://copyrightalliance.org/copyright-regulations/ https://www.uspto.gov/sites/default/files/trademarks/law/Trademark_Statutes.pdf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_trademark_law https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_Act_of_1909 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_Act_of_1870 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Copyright_Act_of_1891 https://www.huffpost.com/entry/the-disneyland-memorial-o_b_5859 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trademark_Dilution_Revision_Act https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arne_Anka https://www.courthousenews.com/disney-goes-on-trial-over-moana-copyright-infringement-claims/ https://blog.ipleaders.in/popular-copyright-infringement-cases-highlighting-disney-protective-intellectual-property-rights/ https://copyrightalliance.org/copyright-cases/disney-v-vidangel/ https://variety.com/2025/digital/news/disney-google-ai-copyright-infringement-cease-and-desist-letter-1236606429/ https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/disney-sued-enforcing-rights-mickey-mouse-public-domain-1236378997/?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us https://carbuzz.com/features/7-times-ferrari-filed-lawsuits-against-its-own-fans/ https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/future-cars/a30750318/ferrari-purosangue-name-lawsuit/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFepk2ZoJtQ https://gileriodekel.com/2026/04/the-lds-church-is-suing-mormon-stories/ https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/getting-it-right-clarifying-trademark-branding-concerns https://www.reddit.com/r/mormon/comments/1svqcdy/a_tale_of_two_responses_the_book_of_mormon/ https://www.reddit.com/r/mormon/comments/1svnrzq/if_youre_worried_about_brand_confusion_and_people/ https://www.reddit.com/r/mormon/comments/1sxh2yy/lds_lawsuit_against_dehlin_too_little_too_late/ https://humblymybrain.substack.com/p/the-lds-church-vs-mormon-stories?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=1b8vxy&triedRedirect=true https://www.reddit.com/r/mormon/comments/1suvu8w/re_mormon_stories_litigation_a_brief_primer_on/ https://www.reddit.com/r/mormon/comments/1sp83g4/lds_church_lawsuit_against_mormon_stories_rejects/   Index librorum prohibitorum (in Latin): https://archive.org/details/case_wing_z1020_i39_1664/mode/2up    MOGP: The Firm : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106918/?ref_=tttrv_ov_bk  Where it's streaming: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/the-firm    Happy News: For the first time, scientists pinpoint the brain cells behind depression: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/04/260423022010.htm    Accidental Medical Discoveries: How Tenacity and Pure Dumb Luck Changed the World by Robert W Winters.   Show Links: Email: glassboxpodcast@gmail.com  Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GlassBoxPod  Patreon page for documentary: https://www.patreon.com/SeerStonedProductions BlueSky: @glassboxpodcast.bsky.social  Other BlueSky: @bryceblankenagel.bsky.social and @shannongrover.bsky.social  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glassboxpodcast/  Merch store: https://www.redbubble.com/people/exmoapparel/shop Or find the merch store by clicking on "Store" here: https://glassboxpodcast.com/index.html One time Paypal donation: bryceblankenagel@gmail.com  Venmo: @Shannon-Grover-10

My friend Greg Price (writer, scientist, businessman, philanthropist—see bio at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregory_Prince) joins us to talk about his book “Gay Rights and the Mormon Church: Intended Actions, Unintended Consequences” released in 2019. In this episode, Greg talks the history of the Church approach to homosexuality—going from the behavior model (it's a choice) to *mostly* the biological model (it's not a choice). Greg's book documents when the Church started talking about this (1960's), what was said, the impact, and how we have gradually moved to where we are today. Greg talks about these painful chapters (including when just identifying as gay would get your excommunicated and expelled for Church schools). To understand the road our LGBTQ members and their families are walking, I believe it is important to understand where we have come from—which is sobering as we learn the reality of early days and the impact of LGBTQ members and their families. Further, I think it helps our minds and hearts be open to the need to continue to bring more understand and support—as I feel we are not at the finish line as we work to expand the boarders of Zion. Episode Two will focus on the Church LGBTQ legal efforts (starting with Hawaii in the 1990s) to where we are today. Thank you Greg for being on the podcast and all your efforts to bring more understanding and support for LGBTQ Latter-day Saints and their families.

The situation in Iran is getting messier by the minute—and now the real battle might be over the truth itself. Conflicting reports about downed U.S. aircraft have sparked a wave of conspiracy theories, with many questioning whether the government is being fully transparent about how many planes were actually lost. Is this just the fog of war, or is something bigger being covered up? We break down what's being said, what's not adding up, and why people aren't buying the official story. Then, Tim Dillon stirs the pot by calling out MAGA, igniting backlash and dividing his fanbase. Is he serious, trolling, or just leaning into the chaos? And Taylor Frankie Paul makes a major personal decision—walking away from the Mormon church. We dive into what led to this moment and why it's resonating across social media. War, controversy, and cultural curveballs—this is your Morning Rush.

While the Trump administration wages war against Iran and broadens their military scope in the northern hemisphere, there are more subtle campaigns being pushed here at home – like the one to convince women to do nothing more than have babies and stay at home. This week, Alex speaks to former trad wife and host of “The Wake Her Up Podcast”, Sharon Johnson, about her upbringing in the Mormon Church, what it was like to discover she could have agency and choice in her late thirties, and how she feels about trad wives trending. Then Alex is joined by host of Crooked's “Hysteria” podcast, Erin Ryan, to talk about the broader political goals behind the Heritage Foundation's Project 2026 plan, and how it attempts to punish women who don't fit their ideals.
