Top differences, spelled out in a highly listenable, fast-paced podcast.

In this episode of The Thinking Faith Broadcast, Beau and Jerry Chevassus examine Mormonism (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) alongside historic, biblical Christianity by comparing official LDS teachings with Scripture itself. The conversation focuses on doctrine — the things Christianity has always considered essential.

Using LDS scriptures and authoritative writings (including Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, Doctrine & Covenants, Journal of Discourses, and Mormon Doctrine), the discussion contrasts those claims with the Bible to explore where Mormon theology and Christianity fundamentally diverge.

This episode covers core differences such as:

• The nature of God: one eternal God vs. a plurality of gods
• Whether God is an eternal Spirit or an exalted man with a physical body
• Who Jesus is: eternally God or one of many gods
• The Trinity vs. separate divine beings
• Salvation by grace through faith vs. grace conditioned on personal righteousness
• Human destiny: adoption as God’s children vs. humans becoming gods
• Authority: Christ as the final revelation vs. the need for a living prophet

Many conversations between Christians and Mormons stall because shared language hides deeply different meanings. This episode aims to bring those differences into the open — honestly, respectfully, and without pretending they don’t matter.

Apologetics vs. Real-World Questions is where Christian faith meets honest, unscripted conversation.

"Church is boring. And full of hypocrites. I'd much rather connect spiritually out in the wilderness. Or even sleeping in." Here's why church is important. BONUS: "What's up with our youth groups?" 70-75% of teens leave the church after graduating... is this a failure for youth departments in churches?

Old Earth or New Earth? My friend says she's trans... what pronoun do I use? Can a Christian believe in evolution? What is speaking in tongues?
