The Politics of Revelation: Lifting the Priesthood Ban


Listen Later

When is revelation simply policits? In this special rerelease of Mormonish Podcast, cohosts Rebecca and Landon discuss the LDS 1978 “revelation” to lift the Priesthood Ban. All of us are familiar with the epic revelation, but many don't realize there were decades of behind the scenes politics, infighting and lobbying by the Q15 at play before the Priesthood Ban was finally lifted. Many of the Q15 were vehemently opposed to the “revelation,” while others saw that it was the only way forward for the church and the behind the scenes story shines a light on the church, the politics, and the men themselves. Join us as we delve into the little known backstory of how "The Revelation" finally came to be.
