  1. The Little Town That Said "No": The Deseret Peak Utah Temple Story

    The Little Town That Said "No": The Deseret Peak Utah Temple Story

    In 2019, President Russell M. Nelson announced that there would be a new temple built in the Tooele area. Members of the LDS church were excited and speculated as to where it would be located. The temple site was announced and the renderings of the new temple made available in April of 2020. It was to be built in the small town of Erda, UT with only 3,000 residents and a completely rural environment. But that wasn't all... It was soon announced that there would be a 167-acre pedestrian-oriented community right next to the temple. With 446 units ranging from single-family homes on half acre lots to townhouses and 54 senior housing units. Residents of Erda were excited for a temple, but not the accompanying housing development. Could they have one without the other? Can you guess what the LDS church said? ***How to DONATE to Mormonish Podcast: If you would like to help financially support our podcast, you can DONATE to support Mormonish Podcast here: Mormonish Podcast is a 501(c) (3) https://donorbox.org/mormonish-podcast ****WE HAVE MERCH! **** If you’d like to purchase Mormonish Merch, you can visit our Merch store here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/mormonishmerch We appreciate our Mormonish viewers and listeners so much!

  2. Church vs State Corruption, Deceit, Power, and Influence on the Road to Statehood

    Church vs State Corruption, Deceit, Power, and Influence on the Road to Statehood

    How involved is the LDS church in Utah politics? Has it always been this way? In a recent LDS Conference talk, we learned about President of the Seventy, B. H. Roberts and his run for an 1895 congressional seat. This chapter in church history needs more daylight shone on it. At odds with the brethren over the church’s interference with the election, B.H. Roberts was suspended from ecclesiastical office and eventually forced to sign The Political Manifesto of 1895 or face excommunication. For those who doubt the relationship between church and state in the early church, this is just one of many examples of the LDS faith's influence and control over politics in Utah and beyond. Mormonish Podcast cohosts Rebecca and Landon are joined again by church history buff, Master Peace (Ron Yorgason), as we delve deeper into the ongoing conflict between church and state as Utah struggled to gain statehood. We can’t believe some of the information we uncovered, and neither will you! ***How to DONATE to Mormonish Podcast: If you would like to help financially support our podcast, you can DONATE to support Mormonish Podcast here: Mormonish Podcast is a 501(c) (3) https://donorbox.org/mormonish-podcast ****WE HAVE MERCH! **** If you’d like to purchase Mormonish Merch, you can visit our Merch store here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/mormonishmerch We appreciate our Mormonish viewers and listeners so much!

    Former LDS Chief Temple Architect Speaks Out with Lauri Lee Hall

    Would you like an inside look at LDS temple building? On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon are so honored to be joined by Laurie Lee Hall to discuss her career building temples for the LDS church. Laurie Lee was the chief LDS temple architect for 15 years, and also served as the director of design and construction for special projects and temples. She oversaw the design and building of 40 LDS temples. She also held several ecclesiastical leadership positions, including bishop and stake president. Laurie Lee is one of the most fascinating guests we have ever had on Mormonish. The information she shares about temple building and her perspectives on the current temple building controversies is invaluable. Laurie Lee Hall's new book "Dictates of Conscience: From Mormon High Priest to My New Life as a Woman" comes out on November 2024 and we hope you will all preorder a copy to learn more about her fascinating and incredible journey. ***How to DONATE to Mormonish Podcast: IF YOU"RE WONDERING WHERE TO MAKE THOSE END OF YEAR DONATIONS, DONATE TO MORMONISH THROUGH DONORBOX https://donorbox.org/mormonish-podcast Mormonish Podcast is a 501(c) (3) https://donorbox.org/mormonish-podcast ****WE HAVE MERCH! **** If you’d like to purchase Mormonish Merch, you can visit our Merch store here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/mormonishmerch We appreciate our Mormonish viewers and listeners so much!

    The Book of Enoch: Influence on Joseph Smith's Theology? with Mark Lines

    On this episode of Mormonish Podcast, Rebecca and Landon are joined by author Mark Lines to delve into the mysterious Book of Enoch and its influences on the emerging theology of Joseph Smith. Mark's book, "Joseph Smith and the Book of Enoch:The Influence on Mormon Theology" explores Enoch as one of the sources of Joseph Smith's literary works. Joseph's "translation projects" the Book of Mormon, Book of Moses, the Inspired Bible and Book of Moses include prophecies, visions and allusions to the ancient biblical prophet Enoch. Did this renewed interest in Enoch in the religious and scholarly world during that time period directly influenced Joseph Smith's writings? Or do the similarities between Joseph's writings and the Book of Enoch point to a more divine origin? ***How to DONATE to Mormonish Podcast: If you would like to help financially support our podcast, you can DONATE to support Mormonish Podcast here: DONATE THROUGH DONORBOX https://donorbox.org/mormonish-podcast Mormonish Podcast is a 501(c) (3) https://donorbox.org/mormonish-podcast ****WE HAVE MERCH! **** If you’d like to purchase Mormonish Merch, you can visit our Merch store here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/mormonishmerch We appreciate our Mormonish viewers and listeners so much!
