Fantastic - thank you! I love your approach as you help us to fully engage with the source material intellectually while also leaving room for faith. Keep up the good work!

Great stuff.

[@josuearevalo1694]

I love the content! Thank you so much. Just a heads up, there is an issue with the audio. It is very low in comparison to others… it feels like the microphone is too far away

[@jimandhilaryfollett1365]

I am glad you said something

[@BryceCarmony]

I wish these guys would take the same approach to Christianity. "there was a great apostacy" oh really?
If they studied the apostolic Father's instead of Smith they wouldn't believe there ever was an apostacy

[@Ab44778]

Frankly, Mormons aren’t the only denomination who believe in a ‘great apostasy’. Mormons aren’t the only sect believing there was one. Do you ask the Methodists and Baptists too? Or just Mormons?

[@grayman7208]

nonsense.
the apostacy happened.
