My name is Rick Bennett, and I love Mormon history, science, and theology.  This is THE place to talk about that.  If that describes you, I think you will really enjoy this podcast. We talk with the best scholars in the world on Mormon history, science, and theology, regardless of their affiliation with the LDS Church.  The idea here is you don’t even need to be LDS to enjoy this podcast, just simply the church started by Joseph Smith.

Gospel Tangents originally started in 2011 to publish some books illustrated by my children to help them get more familiar with the scriptures.  In 2017, I decided to start producing podcasts with the idea to create documentaries highlighting important events in Mormon History. I hope you’ll subscribe to our newsletter to get important Announcements and let us know other topics you are interested in.  Your support will help me build better resources, like creating classes on various Mormon history topics of interest to you!
