What happens when your daughter starts asking the questions you were never allowed to? Beyond Belief: Still Small Questions is an unscripted, raw conversation between a father who grew up in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints—and his daughter, who didn’t. Lou wants answers. Real ones. Not the ones in the manual. Each episode, Lou asks direct, thoughtful questions about Mormon doctrine, culture, history, and silence. From the role of women to LGBTQ+ issues, from polygamy to prophets, no topic is off limits. There’s no script, no agenda—just a genuine exploration of belief, doubt

001 LDS Come Follow Me: Beyond the Manual | The Restoration of the Fulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ

Join us in Episode 2 of Beyond the Manual as we explore the foundational claims of the Restoration in Latter-day Saint theology. We delve into the First Vision, the need for a Restoration, and the early Christian Church's teachings. How does the modern LDS Church align with its claim to be the "restoration" of the Church established by Jesus Christ? Highlights from this Episode: The inspiration of James 1:5–6 in Joseph Smith’s journey. A closer look at the Restoration Proclamation and its implications. A critical analysis of the First Vision accounts, their evolution, and the challenges they present. Restorationist movements of the 19th century and their parallels to the LDS Church. How well does the LDS Church align with early Christian practices and doctrines? 🔔 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and click the bell icon to stay updated with new episodes! 💬 Let us know your thoughts in the comments: How does your understanding of the Restoration evolve after learning more about these topics?
