ABOUT

Hosted by Dr. John Dehlin (Clinical/Counseling Psychology), Mormon Stories podcast seeks to understand, explore, challenge, and improve the Mormon experience through stories.

Providing support to Mormons who are transitioning away from either orthodox Mormonism, or from Mormonism altogether, with a particular emphasis on:
Minimizing the anxiety, depression, and occasional suicidality that can accompany a transition away from religious orthodoxy.
Reducing the number of unnecessary divorces attributable to Mormon faith crises.
Creating a community of support for liberal/progressive and post-Mormons.
Building greater awareness regarding accurate LDS/Mormon church history, doctrine, and theology – so that both active, believing Mormons and investigators of the church can make informed decisions regarding their investment in, and engagement with the church.
Identifying opportunities for growth/improvement within the LDS church, and within broader Mormon culture.
