The Pink Apostle

Today on the Pink Apostle Podcast, I’m sharing how I went from doubting the Bible’s reliability to seeing overwhelming evidence that it’s the real deal. Coming out of the LDS church, I had to dig deep—and what I found changed everything.

We’ll cover:
✅ Common objections to the Bible’s trustworthiness
✅ Manuscript and archaeological evidence
✅ Fulfilled prophecy and eyewitness testimony
✅ Why the Bible’s consistency is unmatched—and how it contrasts with the Book of Mormon’s changes

What happens when you apply forensic investigation methods to faith?

In this powerful episode, I sit down with J. Warner Wallace—former atheist, cold-case detective, and author of Cold Case Christianity—to talk about why evidence is a key factor when it comes to our faith.

Jim didn’t just become a Christian—he also examined the claims of the LDS church and found them lacking. He explains why a changed life isn’t enough if that change is built on a lie, and why truth must be testable.

We talk about:

• What it means to investigate faith evidentially
• Why testimony alone isn’t proof of truth
• The evidence for the New Testament’s reliability
• How Mormonism falls short under forensic scrutiny
• Why it matters to know which Jesus you're following

If you’ve ever wondered whether your beliefs can stand on more than feelings—this conversation is for you. Let’s walk through the evidence together.

In this special behind-the-scenes episode, I’m inviting you into a more personal conversation—straight from my heart to yours. I’m sharing my vision for what’s ahead on The Pink Apostle podcast, including:

• A new Bible study series to walk through Scripture together

• A discipleship series for those who are new to faith or just left Mormonism

• Ongoing deep dives comparing LDS teachings with the Bible

• And powerful interviews with experts and people who want to share their testimonies

This podcast was born out of my own journey from deception to truth—and I know I’m not the only one searching for clarity, healing, and solid biblical teaching.

If The Pink Apostle has impacted you, I want to invite you to partner with me as I take the next step: building a podcast studio at home. This will allow me to show up more consistently and create even more Christ-centered, truth-filled content.

Would you consider praying for this next season or giving to help support the mission? Every bit makes a difference. Thank you for being part of this growing community.

Welcome back to The Pink Apostle Podcast! If you haven’t listened to Part 1 yet, hit pause and go check out Episode 5—we laid the groundwork by unpacking the origin of LDS exaltation and how it contrasts with the gospel of grace found in Scripture.

In Part 2, we’re continuing our deep dive into Chapter 47 of the LDS Gospel Principles Manual (link below), examining the ordinances and commandments the LDS Church says are required for exaltation—and holding each one up to the truth of God’s Word.

We’ll walk through baptism, priesthood, temple ordinances, eternal marriage, and more—and see how the Bible teaches something radically different: Jesus is enough. Salvation is eternal life, and it’s received by grace—not earned by works.

💗 Whether you’re questioning, deconstructing, or just curious—this episode is for you. Let’s walk in truth together.

In today’s episode, we dig into one of the most critical differences between LDS doctrine and the Bible: Is the goal of eternal life to become like God (exaltation)? Or is it something far better — being reconciled to Him through Jesus?

We examine LDS teachings on exaltation as found in Gospel Principles Chapter 47: Exaltation (official LDS site) and compare them to the true gospel found in Scripture.

Together, we'll unpack:

• What the LDS church teaches about becoming gods and eternal families

• What the Bible says about who God is, who we are, and what eternal life actually means

• Why salvation is not a stepping stone to godhood — it is the goal

• How striving for exaltation shifts our eyes off Jesus and onto ourselves — and why grace through faith is enough

We’ll hold each claim up to God’s Word and let Scripture speak louder than tradition.

📖 Scriptures Referenced:

• 1 Corinthians 15:46 — “The natural is first, then the spiritual.”

• Zephaniah 3:17 — “The Lord your God is with you...He will rejoice over you with singing.”

• Matthew 25:46 — “And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

• John 3:16 — “For God so loved the world...”

• Romans 6:23 — “The wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus.”

• John 17:3 — “This is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.”

• Ephesians 2:8–9 — “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith...”

• Hebrews 10:14 — “For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.”

• Galatians 2:21 — “If righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing.”

• Colossians 2:10 — “You have been given fullness in Christ.”

• Luke 8:19–21 — “My mother and brothers are those who hear God’s word and do it.”

• Matthew 22:30 — “At the resurrection, people neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like the angels.”

• Isaiah 43:10 — “Before Me no god was formed, and none will be after Me.”

• Isaiah 42:8 — “I will not give My glory to another...”

This was Part 1 of a two-part conversation!
Next week in Part 2, we’ll explore what happens after someone accepts Jesus in LDS teachings, and how that compares to what the Bible says about salvation, sanctification, and the Holy Spirit.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the LDS "Plan of Salvation" and ask the hard questions and break down the core differences between the LDS plan and the biblical gospel by exploring ideas like:

Is God’s desire for us to become like Him… or be in relationship with Him?

What is eternal life according to the Bible?

Does salvation lead to exaltation, or is that a distortion of the gospel?

Is the LDS “Plan of Salvation” really biblical?

We’ll compare LDS teachings with Scripture, hold up claims like pre-mortal life, proving ourselves faithful, and becoming like God—and then weigh them against the truth of God’s Word.

👀 Spoiler alert: the Bible tells a radically different story. One where salvation isn’t the doorway to an obstacle course… but the finished work of Christ that welcomes us directly into relationship with God.

In this powerful episode of The Pink Apostle, we’re pulling back the curtain on one of the most important—and often misunderstood—truths in the conversation between Mormonism and Biblical Christianity: The Jesus of the LDS Church is not the same as the Jesus revealed in Scripture.I share my heart, my story, and the Scriptures that opened my eyes after decades in the LDS Church. We walk through exactly how the LDS version of Jesus differs from the Jesus of the Bible—His nature, His identity, and His finished work on the cross.You’ll hear:Why it matters who Jesus truly isHow LDS doctrine redefines ChristThe danger of a “different Jesus” (2 Corinthians 11:3–4)What the Bible actually says about Jesus’ eternal nature, deity, and uniqueness.Scriptures referenced in this episode:📖 Matthew 7:21-23📖 Matthew 10:32📖 1 Corinthians 15:53-58📖 John 1:1–3, 14📖 Matthew 24:4-5📖 Matthew 24:24📖 Galatians 1:6–9📖 2 Corinthians 11:3–4📖 Isaiah 64:5-6📖 Colossians 1:15–20📖 Colossians 1:22📖 1 John 5:20📖 1 Corinthians 8:5-6📖 Revelation 21:1-4This episode is for anyone questioning the Jesus they’ve been taught, especially those coming out of or currently in the LDS Church.

In this episode of The Pink Apostle, we dig deep into the beautiful truth of who God is—not a man made of flesh and bone, but the eternal, unchanging, holy Spirit who existed before time began. We explore what Scripture reveals about God's divine nature, His complete otherness from us, and what that means for our identity, our purpose, and our worship. This is a freeing, faith-building reminder that God doesn’t change His mind, grow weary, or become like us—He is forever the same, and we can trust Him fully.

Welcome to the Pink Apostle Podcast! I'm so excited to be here, sharing my journey and the undeniable joy, peace, and love I've found in Jesus. I grew up as a devout member of the LDS church, striving for worthiness, but over time, God led me to a deeper understanding of His grace. Through life’s challenges—miscarriage, divorce, single motherhood, and remarriage—I have learned that true transformation comes not from striving but from surrendering to Jesus alone.This podcast is for those who feel exhausted, like they’re never quite enough, or who long to truly know Jesus. If you’re seeking the freedom and abundant grace found in Him, you’re in the right place. Each episode, I’ll share my story, biblical truths, and the power of God’s love.Key Scriptures:Romans 5:8: "But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."1 John 4:16: "God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him."Revelation 3:16: "So, because you are lukewarm and neither hot nor cold, I will vomit you out of my mouth."Matthew 7:7-8: "Ask, and it will be given to you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened to you."God has led me to share my testimony so others can find the freedom I’ve found in Jesus. I pray this podcast blesses you and helps you draw closer to Him. Join me each Tuesday as we seek Him together!
