S11 E20 Why Stay LDS?
Manage episode 487073523 series 3619084
Episode 20 of Apostates explores why some Latter-day Saints choose to stay in the Church despite significant challenges to their traditional beliefs. We examine the complex reasons people remain connected—from identity and family bonds to community and spiritual nourishment—even when facing difficult church history, doctrinal concerns, or personal spiritual struggles. We discuss practical strategies for navigating a "middle way" of faith, including reframing beliefs, setting boundaries, and finding personal integrity within institutional participation.
