Inside Out with Jim Bennett and Ian Wilks
Jim BennettThe format of Inside Out is simple - Jim Bennett is still on the inside of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and Ian Wilks is on the outside of the Church. Yet both care about the Church and its future, and both want to see constructive dialogue between those who stay and those who leave. Hopefully, all of us can come to a better understanding of the Church and of each other.

I loved Ian’s story and have cheered for the guests who are trying to make things better, while also shedding tears for those who’ve been hurt by the organization. I’ve related to almost every guest you’ve had on.

As someone who looks to the church to do more good with the resources it has, I appreciate Jim and Ian being willing to talk about areas where the church can be healthier. It gives me hope and inspires purpose for my place in the church that I don’t always get in my local congregation.
