Show Notes:
In part two of our series on Mormon theology and culture, continue the conversation with Rev. Jeremy Lamont, Pastor Mark Parsons, and Molly Parsons as they explore how Latter-day Saints navigate doubt, guilt, and the pressure to be “worthy.” Together, they unpack the cultural dynamics of Mormonism today—from community expectations to internet-driven shifts—and why the LDS worthiness system leaves many either exhausted or self-assured.
We contrast this with the Lutheran understanding of law and gospel, the beauty of the sacraments, and the comfort of objective grace. The group discusses what the LDS Church does well, why so many are leaving, what draws people into Mormonism, and how Christians can engage LDS friends with patience, love, and a deep grounding in Christ.
Whether you’re in an LDS-dense community or simply curious about this growing religious movement, this episode reminds us of the most important evangelistic tool. A Christian who knows Jesus deeply and loves their neighbor well.
