Why were the Salt Lake Temple historic murals removed? When the church announced they would be going in 2024, it stung. But historian Matthew Grow helped me understand the dialogue that has to exist between historical preservation and modern-day function of this sacred temple.

"You are acutely aware of the events of September 11, less than a month ago...Occasions of this kind pull us up sharply to a realization that life is fragile, peace is fragile, civilization itself is fragile." Gordon B. Hinckley, October 7, 2001.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has officially filed a lawsuit against the exmormon podcast Mormon Stories hosted by John Dehlin. This is the "unreasonable" demand that led to John Dehlin to walk away from mediation, and led the Church to finally pull the trigger

Richard Dawkins: The Book of Mormon is an obvious fake! The problem is that the Book of Mormon is claiming to be ancient, not English. And what's ironic is that the way the Book of Mormon uses "And it came to pass" actually reflects biblical Hebrew writing better than the KJV.

This is the first published photograph of the Salt Lake Temple’s Holy of Holies in over 100 years because what happens in the Holy of Holies is so sacred that most Latter-day Saints will never enter it.

For the first time in history, younger women may be leaving religion at higher rates than men, and a new report just confirmed that the same seems to be true in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. But why is this happening?

The Church just announced that they are REintroducing a class for new converts. It's called Gospel Foundations, it is desperately needed, it's way shorter than Gospel Principles, and it emphasizes actions members can be taking as they grow in the gospel.

I don’t think that breaking the law of chastity is basically like committing murder. There are 2 scripture stories where “the sin next to murder” comes up and yet I think they’re actually leading to different conclusions.

Hard truth about conservatives leaving the church, according to social science. A lot of people have assumed that being politically liberal or progressive was the fastest pathway out of the church, but new data shows that we’ve been missing a piece to the puzzle.

The Church’s lawsuit against Mormon Stories has never been just about using the word “Mormon” or criticizing the church, despite what Mormon Stories and others seem to be alleging.

This new church schedule solves so many problems people are not realizing. I've been hearing people concerned that 25 minutes per class isn't enough time, and that is a valid concern. However, I think this could be a game changer for the YOUTH.

What are you guys doing to help the youth lead 25 minute lessons/discussions starting next month? Here's what my ward did and I thought it was super helpful.

Super exciting that the Church has just acquired what may be the most likely candidate for an actual photograph of Joseph Smith the prophet. But is this photo legit? There's some compelling history and facial analysis that suggest this is a real possibility.

Are we seeing a crisis of men in the church? On the one hand, men are staying in religion at higher rates than women for the first time in history. But on the other, some men feel getting rid of priesthood session and boy scouts been a loss, and they’re struggling.

A new large-scale study has shown that nearly every Book of Mormon detail once thought to be “impossible” has now been discovered in archaeology.

John Dehlin's narrative about me actually proves the Church's point about "brand confusion" in their lawsuit against Mormon Stories. He has implied I am part of a “coordinated media disinformation and smear campaign.” But there are a couple problems with that narrative.

The new Secret Lives of Mormon Wives OC is raising eyebrows because it seems that most of them aren't even Latter-day Saints. But what I think is the most interesting part, is that so many of them WANT to be "Mormon." For clout.

I'm going to show you exactly what happens inside of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (sometimes known as the Mormon Church), because even though anyone's welcome to come inside, most people have no idea all the amazing stuff that happens here. Informed Saints
