I Swear I Am NOT a Mormon! (feat. Dallas Jenkins of "The Chosen")
#Mormon #LatterDaySaints #kwakuel #cardonellis #braderico #Christianity #LDS Dallas Jenkins is the creator of "The Chosen", arguably the most spiritually influential portrayal of Jesus Christ and the Early Church in a decade. It's breaking all the barriers, setting all the records, and blazing all the trails, and Dallas Jenkins, it's director, should be out doing nothing but victory laps in churches all over North America. Unfortunately, he isn't though... becuase a lot of people have a BIG problem with some of the catholic, Mormon (Latter-Day Saint), and Messianic Jewish staff involved in assorted parts of the production. No joke... go google "Dallas Jenkins Mormon" and you'll get thousands of videos telling you why you shouldn't go watch "The Chosen". lololol. It's simultaneously sad and hilarious at the same time. So... in this video, Dallas Jenkins sets the records straight, he pledges allegiance to the evangelical flag, and then has a seriously fun and productive conversation with fellow believer Cardon Ellis, the creator of Midnight Mormons, about how to write for Jopnathan Rumie, the ethics of Christian Film writing, and a bunch of really fun stuff in between. Check it out! and then go Check out the Chosen on Netflix or BYUTV! Visit us at: midnightmormons.com

The Spiral of Silence is Killing the Church (feat. Greg Matsen)
We connected with Greg Matsen from CwicShow for a chat about the Spiral of Silence in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Greg is a great guy with some awesome insights. Will the Church's culture of silence get better? Or will it get worse? How does it feel to be a Gen-X-er in the Church? Is there a divide between the Gen-X-ers and the Boomers? And how do we ask for clarification from the Brethren while remaining stalwart in sustaining them? Great conversation with Greg Matsen.

Defeating Evil Feminists at Church (feat. Jonah Barnes)
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints does well when it sticks to its guns and does the O.G. Jesus and Joseph thing ... but... when it veers off course into "isms" like protestantism and feminism, you start getting ugly things like the culture of man-hating that exists at church. It's time to make church manly again!.... or at least, well... fair, and not man-hating. lol. And who else to tell us all about it than Jonah Barnes!

Archaeological Evidence for the Book of Mormon, Nephi's Steel Bow (with Jim Gee)
A controversial topic amongst psuedoscientific anti-mormons is the existence or non-existence of Nephi's steel bow. "Steel didn't exist until we, the modern suburban and college-educated man invented it!" they can be heard crying from the rooftops of their failed academic institutions, clutching their dogmatic degrees harder than a catholic priest clutches the apocrypha in seminary. Enter Jim Gee to put their arrogant self-importance and so-called 'knowledge' out of its misery. Lol. That description was pretty epic... don't you think?!

Evidence for the Book of Mormon -- Consumption of Raw Meat (with Jim Gee)
In First Nephi 17:12 of the Book of Mormon, the Lord tells Nephi and his family not to cook their meat and to eat it raw and he will make it "sweet unto them". This has always been an odd point in the story that many have not been able to explain.... until now.
