S1.E29: How to Respond When a Loved One Leaves Their Faith, Difficult Conversation With Christian Courage | Part 2 with Jared Halverson

How do we respond when someone we love leaves the Church? How can believers and former believers speak to each other with honesty without hatred? Can interfaith dialogue exist inside families, friendships, and marriages? In the second half of this conversation with Jared Halverson, we discuss one of the most emotional and difficult realities many people face today: navigating relationships when faith changes. Jared also shares his powerful and moving testimony at the end of this episode. It is my hope that this conversation will give us all more tools to be more effective peacemakers in helping one another come unto Christ. Talk by Robert D.

S1.E28: Faith, Criticism & the “Cult” Question | with Jared Halverson part 1

In this episode of Be Faithful, I sit down with Jared Halverson for a conversation about LDS faith, criticisms, and the media portrayals of members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He dives into the tactics of the antagonistic points of view and how we can respond to take advantage of the unique "Mormon Moment" we are living in. This part 1 is especially useful if you are getting into conversations with others about cults and how to respond if someone accuses you of being in one. This episode is being split into 2 parts, the second will be released separately. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/?lang=eng https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/comeuntochrist To contact me email: lauren.befaithful@gmail.com Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/thrive License code: DQPKTZFA0CUZARSW

S1.E27: How LDS Theology Solves Creedal Christianity’s Biggest Problems | ft. Hayden Carroll

What is so different about LDS Theology from Mainstream Christianity? Hayden helps break this down for us: * What is the Trinity? * What do Latter-day Saints believe about the Godhead? * Is the Trinity actually found in the Bible? * How does LDS theology solve the problem of evil? Hayden shares his experience studying theology, debating different Christian beliefs, and explaining why he believes the restored gospel offers clearer answers about the nature of God. This was a really fun conversation that dives deep into doctrine, philosophy, and truth. 📌 Topics covered: Trinity explained, Godhead vs Trinity, LDS beliefs, Mormon theology, problem of evil, agency, free will, Christianity vs Mormonism, nature of God, biblical doctrine, faith discussions Link to Hayden's book:a.co/d/06AcSyBM [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=channel_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa1dxREVZamYwbHF0cHZzRXc4WGE2T1dnZWJaQXxBQ3Jtc0trbUoxWV9jNGZIWHlKaHFYR3oybDd2R05LRExBVmhXeGxUZzRNM0tKRGdyTVpCaTJQS0RFT3BMLWZ6aG5nazFCSFRscko4Wkp3TjVRS2N2RTlZc0FIN3pzbWJXVVEwd1BtNWdGT0tnZnRvMm9xMGlGMA&q=https%3A%2F%2Fa.co%2Fd%2F06AcSyBM] Hayden's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=hayden+carroll https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/?lang=eng https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/comeuntochrist Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/all-good-folks/thrive License code: CEFSC0WJELTTPFWS To contact me email lauren.befaithful@gmail.com

S1.E26: What Most People Get Wrong About Joseph Smith | with church historian Ronald Barney.

What really happens when you spend decades studying Joseph Smith? In this episode of Be Faithful, I sit down with historian Ron Barney, who has dedicated nearly 50 years to researching the life and teachings of Joseph Smith—including his work on the Joseph Smith Papers Project. We dive deep into some of the most asked (and often misunderstood) questions: * Did studying Joseph Smith ever challenge his faith? * What is the truth about polygamy and early Church history? * How should we approach difficult or controversial topics? * Can you study everything—and still believe? I learned so much in this conversation, I am so excited to share it with you. Ron's testimony and knowledge is refreshing and faith strengthening.
