In this exclusive episode, Valerie is joined by Jody England Hansen and Maxine Hanks where they delve into the recent changes in the style of the temple garment for members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
They explore the psychological, theological, and historical implications of these updates, discussing the complexities around personal revelation, institutional control, and the evolution of the garment policy over time.
The conversation includes an analysis of how religious garments have shifted from mystical symbols to objects of control, where many (especially women) feel micromanaged and mistrusted and the call for members to reclaim their personal spiritual journeys.
This episode is intended to help people connected in some way to the LDS church make sense of their complex feelings about the recent temple garment style changes in the context of their faith expansion journey. More information on this topic can be found in Episode 222 of the Latter Day Struggles podcast.
