I am currently considering bringing back Mormon Stories, targeting a few areas I feel really strongly about:
- Providing stories that will help people through the social, familial and spiritual effects of an LDS-related faith crisis (without any “nudge” or preference as to whether or not they stay in or leave the church). The overarching goals here would be to:
- Create deeper empathy/understanding within our culture for those in a faith crisis, and
- Provide healthy “role models” (tips and tricks) from people who have successfully worked through this crisis — from across the spectrum of belief/non-belief (ex-Mormons, post-Mormons, New Order Mormons, StayLDS, Apologists, etc.). The idea isn’t to point people in a specific direction, but instead to provide stories that will help people find the path that works best for them.
- Create deeper empathy/understanding within our culture for those in a faith crisis, and
- Provide stories to help couples wherein one or both are experiencing a crisis of faith — in a way that might help them to avoid unproductive pain and/or divorce, and
- A deep dive/exploration into mental illness within Mormonism.
….but I will need some help to make it happen.
