Most of us who have been part of the LDS Church have felt something shifting over the last few years—but it’s often hard to put words, data, or perspective to what’s actually happening.
In this Video, we take a careful, good-faith look at new research on belief and activity among U.S. Latter-day Saints. Not to attack, not to tear down—but to understand. What are people really feeling? Where are they landing in their beliefs? And why are so many who once felt “all in” now describing something more complex?
What you’ll see might surprise you. A large portion of active members today aren’t fitting neatly into traditional categories of belief. Instead, many are navigating a wide range of perspectives while still participating in the Church in meaningful ways. That raises important questions worth exploring thoughtfully and honestly.
If you’re a believing member of the Mormon Church, this conversation is for you. Not because you’re expected to agree—but because understanding the landscape can deepen empathy, strengthen conversations with loved ones, and help make sense of the moment we’re living in.
Wherever you are in your faith, our goal is simple: to follow the data, ask sincere questions, and create space for a more open and grounded discussion.
If that kind of conversation matters to you, we think this episode will be worth your time.
