A new nine-part video series about Mormonism, titled “An Inconvenient Faith,” was recently uploaded to YouTube.

It tackles the thorniest issues — LGBTQ relations, feminism, church history, race, polygamy, Book of Mormon historicity and divine revelation — currently faced by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

The ultimate approach seems to be to defend the church and help explain how members can wrestle honestly with these topics rather than deny their existence.

The effort was funded, directed and produced by Latter-day Saint businessman Robert Reynolds, with Jim Bennett, as co-producer.

On this week’s show, Bennett, the son of the late Utah Sen. Bob Bennett and a Latter-day Saint blogger and writer, discusses the project.
