In an exclusive interview, Steven Pynakker and Rebecca Bibliotheca get up close and personal with Nigel Kennett, the accountant who is featured on a recent episode of Canada’s The Fifth Estate titled "The Mormons' Books.” The episode discusses the LDS church’s tithing practices in Canada and their donations to LDS universities like BYU. We learn more of Nigel‘s personal story, his background in the LDS church, how he discovered little known information about LDS tithing in Canada, and why he eventually decided to go public with it. Now that the episode has aired on the CBC, we also discuss the reaction he is receiving from friends and family and other members of the church and also delve into more of his reasons for releasing the information. Nigel is a very thoughtful and sincere person and we can all benefit from his perspective and the unique position he finds himself in. A faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will be coming on the program next week to give their perspective on the report and this interview. Stay tuned!
