  • S5E20 The Power of Shared Visions

    S5E20 The Power of Shared Visions
    May 8 2025

    This episode begins with a high-stakes battle of identity between Richard and his more successful French Canadian biochemist doppelgänger. Things escalate quickly to NBA heartbreak, papal betting odds, and whether Calvinist theologians would bet on a Pope “if predestination already picked the winner.” Gerrit helps Kristy prepare her Mother’s Day sacrament meeting talk and then we discuss shared visionary experiences that make LDS history uniquely hard to dismiss.

  • S5E19 Saved by Grace

    S5E19 Saved by Grace
    May 1 2025

    In this episode we answer another email written by a litner in labor. We discuss grace and how do Latter-day Saints understand it differently than other Christians. Along the way we also have a heated debate over how to pronounce “pecan” and discuss what a terrible parent Richard is as he tries to justify missing his son’s MTC drop-off and return.

  • S5E18 The Pope and Mary Magdalene

    S5E18 The Pope and Mary Magdalene
    Apr 24 2025

    In this episode, we review General Conference 2 weeks late with a segment we like to call “Fun with General Conference”. Gerrit answers a litner question about how the Book of Mormon was distributed and Joseph and Hyrum’s preaching to the Native Americans. Richard’s dander is way up after reading a question about Mary Magdalene. Gerrit provides the history of the genesis of Mary’s bad reputation. As always, we depart slightly from things of a spiritual nature to discuss our favorite pies.

Amazingly in-depth Church History Discussions

Great faith filled discussions on early church history and the characters it involved. Controversial topics of LDS history are broken down, almost to a pulp (sarcasm of course (they’re extremely thorough)), to a point where new understanding really helped take away the mysticism, criticisms, and potential points of conflict involved in the history of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
Each episode Dr Dirkmaat gives a deluge of humour filled knowledge in a winding circuitous route that eventually ends at “the point”; and yet I’m more than happy to listen to the next one.
