How Far Into Mainstream Christianity is the LDS Church Willing to Go?
Description
From celebrating Holy Week and Palm Sunday, to wearing cross jewelry, using mainstream Christian terminology, listening to Christian rock music, old Christian hymns in the new LDS hymn book, a cross replacing the Moroni icon on Google Maps, talking about grace, and more, the LDS church seems to be moving in a direction that our grandparents and even parents wouldn't recognize.
Mormonish sits down with our favorite Evangelical, Steve Pynakker to discuss this apparent shift closer to mainstream Christianity and what it means for the LDS membership.
We also discuss the "hard stops" that exist in the LDS church when it comes to reframing or replacing existing doctrines. Are there some things they just won't or can't give up even if it means never fully being considered Christian?
