Description

Mormon history can get, well, witchy. So in honor of Halloween, we're exploring all of the folklore magic elements of Joseph Smith and the start of the Mormon church. We're talking mystical parchments, spirit guardians and astrological talismans- just to name a few. Let's get into it, witches.

I’ve left the Mormon church but, damn it, I just can’t leave the church alone. Pull up a camp chair around the theoretical fire as I chat about all things post-Mormon. I’ll be talking faith transitions and crises, reading your own stories about what it’s like inside and outside of the church, and digging into all the cultural quirkiness that Mormonism and post-Mormonism provide. There may even be some slightly indulgent philosophizing thrown into the mix. Being post-Mormon doesn’t have to be lonely—at least not when you’re at girls camp.
