How can you spew hatred while simultaneously showing off your scripture mastery? Latter-day Trolls have uncovered a handful of scriptures that work a lot like swears for social media purposes. #LDS exponentii.org/blog/wanna-say…
I was asked to give a #LDS talk in church about finding joy. I’ve been thinking about emotions a lot lately at work, where we’re opening a new pediatric behavioral health hospital, so I incorporated what I’ve learned at the children’s hospital. exponentii.org/blog/3-steps-t…
Tomorrow's #LDS #ComeFollowMe lesson has potential to encourage some judgey, unhelpful attitudes toward ex-Mormons. Read my post and you'll be prepared to counter with critical backstory and nuance. Please comment and tell us how it goes in your ward! exponentii.org/blog/the-come-…
#LDS leaders have stopped teaching that men rule over women, preferring the term "preside." But church policy treats priesthood holders like rulers, not presidents. exponentii.org/blog/no-presid…
In this guest column, Katie L Rich and Heather Sundahl, co-authors of "50 Years of Exponent II," share some excellent thoughts on the complex, evolving relationship between feminists and the LDS church. Hooray, @TheExponent!
In 1975, Elder L. Tom Perry was concerned that Mormon feminists' new newspaper @TheExponent was edgy, even dangerous. 50 years later, the L. Tom Perry Special Collections at BYU mounted an exhibit in honor of Exponent II's 50th anniversary. :-) religionnews.com/2025/04/09/for… @RNS
“God is Love” is such a wonderful choice for a #GeneralConference musical number. Beautiful message that we always need to be reminded of!

President Johnson shared an image of a new sculpture of the 5 wise virgins at temple square. She said in the parable, they do not share their lamp oil, but they do share their light, an interesting twist on the old story that invites new meaning. #LDS #GeneralConference

Elder Holland related a moving story about a boy with muscular dystrophy passing the Sacrament. I’m so glad male children of all abilities are invited to participate in this sacred rite, and look forward to the day when the same is true for our girls. #LDS #GeneralConference
BYU graduate and Exponent II board member @KatieLudlowRich cried yesterday when she saw this current exhibit about @TheExponent for #WomensHistoryMonth. (@BYU has had a complicated relationship with #feminism.) #lds

When #lds church leaders created @TheExponent in the 70s, they thought the text was ok but the art was subversive. But the art was pretty benign, so what was up? Margaret Olsen Hemming theorizes that the art was subversive because it was art, and art has the potential to move us.

At the time Maxine Hanks published Women and Authority, she wanted to reclaim the f word (#feminism) in #Mormon culture. #lds

When historian Martha Sonntag Bradley-Evans was selected to lead her university’s honor program, a detractor said, “No, not her. She’s a #Mormon housewife.” Martha says that is one of the best things about her. Be authentic, she says, if you’re a Mormon housewife, own it. #LDS

Judy Dushku compares the feminist lens to a 10-year-old walking in on their parents having sex. You’ll never see the world in the same way again! #lds

At 83 years old, political scientist and feminist activist Judy Dushku is publishing her debut novel. I got to interview her for the Exponent II blog exponentii.org/blog/judydushk… 1/4
#MormonStudies scholars ➡️The MSSA welcomes paper submissions for its annual meeting (held conjointly with the @SSSReligion + @ReligResearch #SSSR_RRA2025), happening in Minneapolis, from October 31 to November 2. 🗓️Submit by March 15, 2025 mormonsocialscience.org/2025/02/03/cal…

#LDS garments weren’t part of Christ’s Biblical church, but I actually found quite a few relevant Biblical passages! Most were Jesus chastising Pharisee leaders for using similar rules to complicate worship and distract from the gospel. exponentii.org/blog/7-reasons…
Save the date! The MSSA will hold a one day conference at Utah Tech University in St. George on Saturday, April 12, 2025. Join us in beautiful southern Utah. Watch this page for the Call for Papers and event details coming soon! # MormonStudies mormonsocialscience.org/blog/
