Mormon Stories - LDS Dr. John Dehlin

In this new series on Mormon Leadership, historian Matt Harris discusses Mormonism's early racism, focusing on the priesthood and temple ban for Black members. He explores the church's opposition to civil rights, the experiences of Black Latter-day Saints like Jane Manning James and Elijah Abel, and the evolving theology around race. Harris challenges misconceptions about prophetic revelation and the origins of the ban, shedding light on this complex and painful history.

Rebecca and Landon from Mormonish Podcast is joined by Radio Free Mormon and Randy Bell to reveal the Mormon church's aggressive tactics to circumvent local building codes for new temples - from funneling money through law firms to influence city councils, to privily threatening opposition that they'll "turn up the heat" and "win" regardless of opposition. Despite publicly preaching being "good neighbors," they privately tell concerned citizens groups “We have so much money, we don't care what you think" while touting lavish spires as vital symbols to "draw eyes heavenward."

We are super excited to announce a new tv project in development - led by ex-Mormon Heather Gay of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. In my opinion, this project has the potential to move the needle in our goal to bring more transparency to Mormon church. Heather's plea is included below. Please email her production company if you are interested.
"To all my Bad Mormons – The last few years have brought me so many incredible experiences and opportunities, but by far the most formative has been being able to work through my faith transition with the church amongst a community of people who understood and support my experiences. We are exploring a television project that I hope will extend this opportunity to more people who might be struggling with similar issues. If you think you might be interested, please reach out to me at newproject@slausonproductions.com and tell me a little about your story and why you think it could be valuable to share." - Heather Gay

In a gripping interview, Megan Conner unpacks the chilling details surrounding Chad Daybell's guilty verdict for murdering his wife and children, tying it to the dangerous offshoots of Mormon teachings. With raw emotion, Conner condemns the LDS Church's silence which enabled Daybell's doomsday cult beliefs like "blood atonement" and gathering the 144,000. She issues an impassioned call for the church to explicitly denounce these doctrines before others are radicalized, arguing its past condoning of violence has harmed thousands and its current silence harms both sides.
