Mormon Expression
Summary: Mormon Expression is weekly discussion of topics dealing with Mormon faith, culture, doctrine and history. We try to straddle the position between defense and criticism of the faith, and look at it from all points of view. We believe that Mormonism is interesting by itself, and we are going to talk about it! We tend to focus on the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, but will consider all flavors of the restoration who draw their roots the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith.
