104. Bradley Campbell on LDS Theology: Past and Present (Part 1/2)


Listen Later

In this episode, we interview Bradley Campbell of God Loves Mormons (GLM) and the Mormonism Research Ministry (MRM). We ask Bradley about the content of a few of his recent videos - and the response to them by LDS. This is a conversation that talks about changes in what the LDS church “officially” teaches and why. What is the state of popular-level LDS theology today, both online and on the street? 

  • Mormons & Christians Respond: Does God Have a God? 
  • Proof: Mormons Don’t Treat their Prophets like Prophets 
  • 5 Things the LDS Church No Longer Teaches
