Ep78: The Mormon Newscast: Mormonish Edition 06.23.2025

In this episode of Mormon Newscast, we dive headfirst into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ bold claim that baptisms are skyrocketing. Is this truly a sign of global revival, or is there more going on beneath the surface? Bill Reel, Radio Free Mormon, and Rebecca Bibliotheca break down the numbers, and question whether we're witnessing genuine growth—or strategic optics.

We also cover LDS leaders meeting with the head of the Dubai Hindu temple, changes to missionary questions, the hot LDS garment black-market, why people are increasingly turning to the Bible, and more!
