Welcome to LDS Discussions Part 79, where we continue our deep dive into the Book of Abraham, examining one of the most popular apologetic arguments: the claim that Joseph Smith drew on ancient traditions about Abraham rather than translating the surviving papyri.We begin by exploring the history of the Joseph Smith Papyri and the various theroies proposed to explain the Book of Abraham, including why so many copeting models exist. From there, we focus on the “ancient traditions” theory, looking at stories about Abraham preserved in later Jewish, Christian, and Islamic writings and askign whether they actually support Joseph Smith's text.Along the way, we compare the timelines of the Book of Mormon and Book of Abraham translations, disucss the implications of the Church's Gospel Topics Essay, and examine whether Joseph Smith had access to contemporary biblical commentaries such as Adam Clarke's. We then compare the Book of Abraham's narrative --including Abraham's calls, the famine in Chaldea, Terah, Haran, Abraham's age, the attempted sacrifice of Abraham, Egyptian idolatry, human sacrifice in ancient Egypt, and Abraham's knowledge or astronomy --with the historical sources often cited by apologists.This episode evaluates whether these ancient parallels strengthen the Book of Abraham's authenticity --or instead demonstrate that Joseph Smith was drawing from ideas available in his own time.As always, we examine the historical evidence, compare the primary sources, and let the documents speak for themselves.___________________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.

Religion and politics have always been intertwined in the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints—but where should the line be drawn? In this episode of Church History Matters, Scott Woodward and Casey Griffiths explore the remarkable life and political career of Brigham H. Roberts, one of the Church's most influential scholars, historians, and public figures. From serving as a General Authority to becoming a nationally recognized political leader, B. H. Roberts found himself at the center of some of the biggest controversies of his era. Scott and Casey examine his election to the U.S. House of Representatives, why Congress ultimately refused to seat him because he continued to practice plural marriage, and how his political ambitions reflected the changing relationship between the Church, Utah, and the United States during the early twentieth century. The episode also explores Roberts's service in Utah politics, his passionate advocacy for the Democratic Party, and the challenges Church leaders faced as members became increasingly involved in partisan political life. These events provide important context for one of the Church's most significant political statements—the Political Manifesto—which established that General Authorities should not seek or hold prominent political office without First Presidency approval. Scott and Casey explain why this policy was adopted, how it reshaped the relationship between Church leadership and government service, and what lasting influence it continues to have today. Join us as we examine the fascinating intersection of faith, citizenship, and public service, and discover how the experiences of B. H. Roberts helped define the modern relationship between The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and American politics.

Welcome to the weekly MormonNewsRoundup where Al & Dives ruminate on the great and spacious Beehive!
D. Todd Christofferson is one of the most senior leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, he has been one of the most recognizable voices in modern LDS leadership.His brother, Wade Christofferson, has pleaded guilty in federal court in Ohio to charges involving coercion and enticement of a m*nor. He now faces the possibility of a lengthy prison sentence.Wade Christofferson had previously been excommunicated from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints over CSA allegations, but was later rebaptized and returned to church membership. Reports have raised questions about his subsequent involvement in church settings and what safeguards were in place.This video is a complete supercut of the latest news coverage, commentary, and public reactions surrounding the Wade Christofferson case.The discussion has prompted difficult questions among both faithful Latter-day Saints and former members:• What did church leaders know, and when did they know it?• How were decisions regarding membership and church participation made?• Could more have been done to protect ch*ldren?• How should institutions respond when allegations of ab*se involve members with connections to leadership?This episode examines the reporting, reactions, and ongoing conversation surrounding this case.⚠️ Content note: This video discusses CSA and related legal proceedings.Subscribe to Mormon News Roundup for commentary, analysis, and discussion of news and issues involving The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.#MormonNewsRoundup #LDSChurch #WadeChristofferson #DarrenChristoffersonPlease 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.

Thomas Westbrook, creator and host of Holy Koolaid, joins Mormon Stories to share his remarkable journey from growing up in an intensely fundamental Christian environment to becoming one of YouTube's leading voices for skepticism, science, and critical thinking.Raised by missionary parents and immersed in evangelical culture from childhood, Thomas recounts life overseas, homeschooling, Youth With A Mission (YWAM), purity culture, sexual shame, biblical literalism, and the constant pressure to evangelize. He explains how years of indoctrination shaped his worldview –and how education, science and asking difficult questions gradually unraveled it.Thomas discusses the pivotal experiences that led him to leave Christianity, including confronting Young Earth Creationism, discovering contradictions he had never been allowed to examine, and realizing that curiosity was viewed as a threat rather than a virtue. He also reflects on the personal cost of deconstruction, including strained family relationships, fear of hell, and learning to rebuild his identity outside of religion. This conversation also explores: growing up as a missionary kid and “third-culture kid”, sleep paralysis and supernatural beliefs, the role of science, evolution, and critical thinking in deconstruction, why Thomas started Holy Koolaid, exposing pseudoscience, misinformation, and religious grifters, Christian nationalism and religion's role in modern politics, building secular community through the Faithless Forum, and what curiosity, uncertainty, and intellectual honest look like after faith.Whether you're questioning your beliefs, interested in religious deconstruction, or simply fascinated by how people change their minds, this episode offers an honest and thoughtful look at one man's journey from certainly to curiosity.

It's Monday and Lauretta has her mind on all sorts of things this summer. She gives a shout out of congratulations to the Vance family on the new addition to their family, baby boy Alec. She asks the prayer warriors to lift up the recently killed service members and their families and reminds all the prayer warriors to keep at it as the world needs peace. Lauretta could not do the show today without mentioning the World Cup-what excitement, the game, the players, the coaches, the fans and the delight of foreigners reveling in the USA! While promoting summer fun and relaxation to all, Lauretta discusses her summer trip to Rome, her love of the beach and pool and her summer reading. She makes it a point to promote reading over the summer as she encourages you to include reading selections that break out the scriptures in such a way to promote a stronger relationship with God. Lauretta then takes a look at the Saints of this week, the beauty of their lives and contributions. She ends announcing the upcoming Encounter Retreat-Summer Intensive on August 6th-8th at St. James Catholic Church in Arlington Heights.

Greg Matsen has become one of the most influential voices in the faithful Latter-day Saint online world through his channel, Quick Media.But that isn't the version of Greg I originally subscribed to.In this episode, I look at Greg's evolution from a creator focused on scripture study, historical context, and Come Follow Me lessons into a commentator increasingly centered on gender politics, LGBTQ issues, BYU controversies, and broader culture-war debates.I discuss:• How Quick Media originally attracted a large LDS audience• Greg's shift away from scripture-focused content• His criticism of BYU professors and academic freedom concerns• His views on LGBTQ and transgender issues• The relationship between religion, politics, and culture-war content• How creators can build large audiences around ideological commentary• Why Greg's approach has resonated with many conservative Latter-day SaintsI also share my broader thoughts on religious authority, evidence, morality, and the growing influence of online Mormon commentators.What do you think?

Kirby Moore may be living a real-life Hollywood script.The first-year Washington State head coach grew up two hours away from Pullman, would visit spring practice with his Dad as a child and opens up his head coaching career in the Apple Cup on NBC. Talk about a dream script!He joined today's episode of THE DAWN, a limited series highlighting the re-imagined Pac-12 in a collaboration between Y-Option and the league.What's clear in our conversation is how proud he is to be leading the Cougs, has an incredible understanding of the standard at WSU, and has hit the ground running since taking over this proud program.He shared insights from mentors like Chris Petersen, Kalen DeBoer, Jeff Tedford and others, let alone what it was like growing up in the same home as the current Saints head coach, Kellen Moore.I've visited the Cougs in Pullman since he took over and can attest that his attention to detail, alignment on campus and the players' focus will have the Cougs prepared for the 2026 season that kicks off on NBC. Much love and stay steady, YogiY-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth is a reader-supported publication. Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel.THE DAWN debuted July 1 across the Pac-12's YouTube and Pac-12 Insider, the league's 24/7 FAST channel. The series culminates with a finale featuring never-before-seen behind-the-scenes content from the building of this new league. It drops in August, right before the season kicks off.

She was sought as a bride by many because of her exceptional beauty and wisdom as well as her noble birth. She was betrothed at a young age, and when her betrothed died, she refused to consider any more suitors, saying that since her betrothed was alive in Christ, it was not right for her to turn to another. Instead she turned to a life of virginity, ascetic struggle and prayer. She greatly influenced her younger brothers, turning them from worldly things to monastic life. She established a monastery and, with her mother Emilia, became a nun. She reposed in peace in 379. Her brother St Gregory of Nyssa held her in special honor. He was present at her death and gave a moving oration at her funeral. He describes how, in her last moments, she prayed thus to God: 'Thou, O Lord, givest rest to our bodies in the sleep of death for a little time, then Thou wilt waken them again with the Last Trumpet. Forgive me, and grant that, when my soul is parted from my body, it may be presented before Thee stainless and without sin, and that it may be as incense before Thee.' Then she made the sign of the Cross on her brow, eyes, face and heart, and died. St Gregory's work on the resurrection of the dead (available in English as On the Soul and Resurrection) is cast in the form of a dialogue between himself and his sister Macrina in which he is the earnest but ignorant student and she the wise and patient teacher. So do the Saints honor the Saints.

Fewer than half of American adults read a single book in 2022. Reading for pleasure has nearly halved in twenty years. Behind those numbers is a deeper story: What happens to a mind, and a democracy, when it loses the habit of sitting with a difficult idea for three hundred pages?In this episode, Reino traces the line from deep reading to deep thinking: how following a long argument builds the same muscle we need to resist slogans, hold nuance, and imagine lives unlike our own. He returns to a small town in rural KwaZulu-Natal, to a teacher named Andy Towert who could make a room fall silent with the toss of a leather bag, and to the books — King Solomon's Mines, The Pilgrimage, Anam Cara — that quietly redirected the course of his life.A reflection on reading, attention, and what a post-literate society stands to lose.#LivingToBe #LettersFromTheThreshold #WhyWeRead #DeepReading #Attention #Literacy #Empathy #Democracy #Pilgrimage #CaminoDeSantiago #ContemplativeLife #Bibliophile #SlowLiving #StorytellingSubscribing to Letters from the ThresholdMore Information:www.reinogevers.comhttps://reinodiary.com/Books:Sages, Saints and SinnersDeep Walking for Body Mind and SoulWalking on Edge: A pilgrimage to Santiago
An exposition of Chapter 27 of the 1689 Second London Baptist Confession of Faith, treating the doctrine of the communion of saints as grounded in the believer's union with Christ. The sermon works through both paragraphs of the chapter, showing that the horizontal communion believers share with one another flows necessarily from their vertical union with Christ by the Spirit and through faith, and that this communion carries binding duties both spiritual and material. Main points: - the nature of the communion of saints, founded upon union with Christ - the duties involved in the communion of saints Scripture references: - Acts 2:42-47 - Romans 15:26-27 - 1 Corinthians 12:12-27 - Galatians 6:10 - Ephesians 4:15-16 - Hebrews 10:24-25 - 1 John 1:3-7 Free Grace Baptist Church — https://www.freegrace.ca Full transcript & sermon notes: https://sermons.freegrace.ca/sermons/sunday-school-2lcf-chapter-27-of-the-communion-of-the-saints Description generated by Tyrannus.ai: https://www.tyrannus.ai

When Ancient Kingdoms Fell but God's Covenant Endured: A Spiritual Wake Up Call From the Old Testament 2 Kings 16–25 | The Apostle D. Todd HarrisonThese chapters declare one unshakable truth: Even when ancient kings and leaders failed, the Kingdom of God remained unstoppable.I testify that the same covenant power that preserved a remnant in Jerusalem is preserving His remnant today through His restored Church. The same God who raised King Josiah is raising His faithful Saints in these Latter-days. The same Holy Spirit that warned the Kingdom of Judah and the ancient Church is calling us to purity, obedience, and uncompromised faith.If we will humble ourselves, rediscover His Word, and walk in covenant loyalty, God will restore, revive, and realign us with His divine purpose—no matter what is happening in the world around us.With apostolic authority directly from Jesus Christ, I charge you to stand firm. Tear down the false idols in your life. Rebuild your spiritual altars. Return fully to the Lord.If you do these things, God will remain faithful to you—just as He always has.I testify that Jesus Christ is our Savior and that He is ALIVE!In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.The Apostle D. Todd HarrisonDirect Apostle of Jesus ChristCalled directly by the Lord Himself—just as Paul was on the Damascus Road (Galatians 1:1; Acts 26:13–20)“Not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead.” — Galatians 1:1Set apart by the Lord according to the ancient pattern Now in the Seventh Year of Global Apostolic Ministry to All Nations
Tesiah “Tess” Frame is a Latter-day Saint digital content creator, author, and podcaster based in Southern California. Focusing on motherhood, practical scripture study, and active discipleship, she aims to bring optimism, authenticity, and joy to the online conversation surrounding Latter-day Saint women. Alongside Becky Squire, she co-hosts the Certain Women Podcast, a Come, Follow Me scripture study program specifically geared toward women, and is the co-owner of the children’s faith brand Happy Sacrament. Outside of her media work, Tessis a mother of three boys and a resilient survivor of a highly traumatic medical crisis during late pregnancy, during which she was placed in a temporary medical coma to safely deliver her youngest son. Utilizing her platforms and personal experiences, she actively encourages Church members to lean into personal initiative, love the gospel, and fearlessly minister on a local scale. Links TesiahFrame.com Certain Women Podcast @certainwomenpodcast HappySacrament.com Instagram @tesiahframe Watch the video and share your thoughts in the Zion Lab community Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights Tess Frame talks about the female experience in the Church and the proactive role of covenant discipleship. The conversation centers on navigating local leadership dynamics, finding purpose outside of official callings, and historical and scriptural frameworks for the Relief Society. 00:04:08 – Tess Frame’s Journey and Unique Birth Experience 00:07:00 – Finding Purpose and Taking Initiative in the Church 00:10:01 – The Libertarian Approach to Church Programs 00:12:34 – Women's Experience in Church Leadership 00:14:18 – Advice for Relief Society Leaders 00:16:33 – Empowering Women Beyond Official Roles 00:17:30 – Lessons from Women in the Scriptures 00:19:07 – Studying Women in the Scriptures 00:25:25 – Continuity Among Women in the Scriptures 00:27:56 – The Role of Women in the Relief Society 00:30:01 – Navigating Social Media as a Woman 00:35:46 – Understanding the Addictive Nature of Social Media 00:39:42 – The Historical Context of the Relief Society 00:44:29 – The Essential Role of Women in God's Kingdom Key Insights Proactive Discipleship: Members should not wait for system-wide institutional changes or official permissions to address local ward needs; recognizing a need is often a spiritual prompting to act. Avoiding Local Hierarchies: Over-regulation by local leadership can accidentally create organizational barriers that prevent auxiliary leaders from fully acting within their stewardships. The Spirit of Relief Society: The true, foundational purpose of the Relief Society is providing local, practical relief and ministering rather than just organizing social activities. Scriptural Continuity: Studying scriptural women—such as Ruth, Rahab, Sarah, and Hannah—reveals flawed but profoundly faithful individuals whose inter-generational commitments parallel modern sisterhood. Mindful Social Media Use: Platforms use algorithms designed to trigger primitive emotional responses like anger and comparison; creators and consumers must intentionally cultivate self-awareness to remain peacemakers online. Supporting Male Experiences: Ward groups must also remain attentive to the emotional, mental health, and connection needs of men, as structural shifts and heavy callings can leave them feeling disconnected. Leadership Applications Encourage Autonomous Ministering: Bishops can empower Relief Society presidencies by explicitly clarifying which matters require priesthood approval and which allow them to act independently to provide immediate community relief. Foster Local Adjustments: Ward leaders can prioritize home-centered gatherings or small-group rotations to break down ward cliques without requiring formal budgets or institutional approval.
