Inside Out with Jim Bennett and Ian Wilks
The format of Inside Out is simple - Jim Bennett is still on the inside of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and Ian Wilks is on the outside of the Church. Yet both care about the Church and its future, and both want to see constructive dialogue between those who stay and those who leave. Hopefully, all of us can come to a better understanding of the Church and of each other.

The Fullness of the Gospel - with Greg Prince

When President Dallin H. Oaks recently reaffirmed that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the "only true and living church," it sparked a fresh round of discussion among members and former members alike. What does that claim actually mean? And how should Latter-day Saints understand it in today's religious landscape?
Ian and Jim welcome back historian Greg Prince for a thoughtful conversation about President Oaks' remarks and the broader implications of exclusivity claims in religion. Together they explore what it means to possess "the fullness of the gospel," how priesthood authority and a testimony of Christ fit into the Church's identity, and whether the Church's greatest strength lies in what it proclaims—or in what it demonstrates through the way it treats people.
