In this episode of Mormonism Live, Bill Reel is joined by Rebecca Bibliotheca (as we give RFM a night off) and we dive deep into the historical record surrounding LDS leaders’ teachings that a woman’s primary role is to be a stay-at-home mom. They explore how these teachings, often laced with shame, guilt, and warnings of spiritual and temporal consequences for those who deviated, shaped the lives of countless women within the Church. With the LDS Church appearing to soften its stance on this issue in recent years, Bill and Rebecca question whether the Church should be held accountable for the harm caused by these past teachings. They also examine the tension between the Church’s claims of divine inspiration and its frequent revision of doctrines, inviting listeners to consider the implications of such changes on the Church’s credibility.
