Welcome to the MormonNewsRoundup!
Get to know Chris
You founded/host a program called porchtime, when did you start that and what is it all about?
Review porchtime ⁠description⁠. What does that all mean?
It seems really hard to put you and your show in a comfy box, is that deliberate?
So basically you are an exmormon podcast that criticizes exmormons? Brilliant!

⁠Statement⁠

The Book of Mormon is internally consistent ⁠
more accurately it should be said that the BofM is ⁠MOSTLY⁠ internally consistent
Cooks tweet reminds me of ⁠Bednar⁠
and ⁠Nelson⁠
reminds me of the ⁠CofC⁠ statement on the BofM
“In addition to the Bible…”
Church official accounts frequently tweet platitudes, then those leaders NEVER engage with comments sections with one exception, to delete overly negative comments
⁠
Sherri Dew surprisingly candid remarks ⁠
Dew shared an experience she had after attending the temple for the first time in her young adulthood. “Candidly, I didn’t love the experience,”
and later
“If prophets, seers and revelators are not perfect, then why should we trust them maybe more than anyone else? Because they are the most infallible leaders on Earth,”
Infallible vs “most infallible,” are there degrees of infallibility?
