  • Random Mormon

    This guy reminds me of the guy I see at church. He thinks they know about everything. Somebody may call them a one upper no matter what store you tell they’ve done it just a little bit better or it happened to them and it was just a little bit worse. It’s like watching a car crash!

  • Excellent Podcast

    I’m writing a review because I saw lots of bad reviews from people who clearly don’t agree with Greg’s take on things. My husband and I listen on the regular and talk about your episodes! This is a great podcast, he really tries to understand where others are coming from but also stands firm in truth. Some may not like that, that’s on them, not on Greg. Excellent podcast.

Instagram Is The New Frontier For LDS Apologetics
Q: Why Instagram?
Instagram's short-form format is efficient for quick, accessible content that can reach many people; it complements but does not replace deeper study or church teaching.
Can You Be a Latter-day Saint and a Feminist? feat. Madi Mather
Q: What advice would you give to younger Mormon women grappling with feminism?
Reframe feminism within a Mormon relational paradigm, seek a gendered moral framework that aligns with gospel truths, and be open to reviving or crafting a form of feminism that supports motherhood, family, and spiritual commitments.
Can You Be a Latter-day Saint and a Feminist? feat. Madi Mather
Q: Can feminism be reconciled with LDS doctrine, and if so, how?
Yes, by adopting a relational, gospel-centered framework that honors gender differences, emphasizes care and responsibility, and uses doctrine to guide moral frameworks rather than pure liberty or equality at all costs.
Can You Be a Latter-day Saint and a Feminist? feat. Madi Mather
Q: What is driving the shift toward a feminized culture in institutions?
The guest attributes it to freedom-based feminism pushing for institutional power and to relational feminism valuing care and social harmony, which together reshape norms and leadership styles in workplaces and beyond.
