S9 E5 - Mormonism
Episode description
In Episode 5 we discuss Mormonism.
Mormons form the 4th largest religious grouping in the United States, after Catholics, Baptists, and Methodists. Globally, there are 16.7 million Mormons.
Mormonism is growing quickly, especially in the United States. Over 70,000 missionaries are working across the globe at the moment. Many of our listeners will have encountered them on University Campuses in Ireland and the UK. So this topic is going to be of real importance for many of our younger listeners.
In this episode we discuss the early life of Mormonism’s founder, Joseph Smith. Then we consider the religion’s core text, the Book of Mormon. Next we pick up the story of how Mormonism developed from its early days. And finally, we talk about five key differences between Mormonism and Christianity.
It's our prayer that each of the conversations during these season strengthen your confidence in the better story told by Christianity, helping to dispel your doubts, and drawing you closer to the Lord Jesus Christ.
