This week, national media is bursting with references to the roles of LDS Bishops in connection with marital abuse, divorce, childhood sexual development and more. We tackle these issues with a few personal experiences and a relevant MormonLeaks audio recording. But do not despair, there is a brightness this week as we bring you the Instagram account @provoguysamiright. An unholy collection of screenshots from “Brovo, Utah: a land flowing with milk, honey, and NCMO propositions.” Plus, a TBM summary of the stats surrounding the stagnant growth of the LDS Church. And as always, Miranda’s Post Mormon Life Pro Tip, a crash course in Tequila!!!
