September 19, 2019 Ep 594 – Abraham-Hicks and The Biggest Missing Piece
Glenn Ostlund's Psychology Today Profile

What if Joseph Smith were teaching his teachings today? Maybe they’d sound a little bit like Abraham Hicks.
The eternal nature of intelligences. The eternal progression of man. The idea that as man is god once was and as god is man may become. Spiritual gifts, the power of faith, that as a man thinketh so is he, the worth of a soul is great, man is that he might have joy, there must needs be opposition in all things but that all sins are wiped clean by a loving god and that all these things shall give thee experience.
But there are some really horrendous “oppositions” out there. The Problem of Evil anyone?
Glenn is joined by Tom and Kristy and a few Patreon supporters to discuss.

Kristy shares her healing process and how it now feels to live a life free of fear.

August 09, 2019 Ep 589 – Three Things to Change about the Mormon Church

Another Jeremy Goff smackdown, and another exemplary satirically celestial appearance of the one and only (if only that were accchttually true…) Stephen Erastus Knudsen III — the mold from which Jeremy Goff has been cut. Enjoy!

August 07, 2019 Ep 588 – Brigham Young, Blood Atonement, and the True Love of Christ
Glenn Ostlund's Psychology Today Profile

What do Brigham Young and Charles Manson have in common? All you need is love — AKA shedding a wicked person’s blood so that they can pay for their sins and be exalted in the highest degree of the Celestial Kingdom. Cuz that is what Jesus REALLY meant when he said “love your neighbor as yourself.” It’s right there in the Journal of Discourses. Straight from the mouth of a prophet of God. Take a listen.

August 02, 2019 Ep 587 – Mo-Side Out
Glenn Ostlund's Psychology Today Profile

What if the emotions from Pixar’s “Inside Out” got together in a Mormon-formed brain that experienced a faith crisis? Which emotion dominates in a pre, mid, or post-faith crisis mind? Those were the questions we playfully explored in our Sunstone panel on Aug 1, 2015 at the University of Utah. Listen in as Glenn narrates and the audience chooses exactly what will become of Joy (Jake), Sadness (Scott), Disgust (Matt), Fear (John), and Anger (Randy).
