Mormon News Update | June 22, 2026 ☝🏻

TODAY, we take a closer look at several stories involving The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and ask some uncomfortable questions about faith, authority, transparency, and power. • Elder Ronald A. Rasband tells new mission leaders that "truth" will strengthen faith and debunks what he calls false narratives about missionary work and Church growth. But which truths are we talking about, and what data are members actually being shown? • A lawsuit at New Mexico Highlands University alleges preferential treatment for members of the LDS Church and raises questions about what happens when a religious minority finds itself in positions of institutional power. • We examine how missionary assignments are made and explore the tension between revelation and bureaucracy in the modern Church. • A viral discussion about the Church's new garment changes sparks a broader conversation about obedience, conformity, and how quickly Mormon culture adapts when leadership changes course. • New BYU men's golf coach Todd Miller shares a faith-promoting story about refusing to work on Sundays, prompting a discussion about privilege, opportunity, and the realities many members face when trying to follow spiritual promptings. Along the way, we explore a recurring theme: when leaders ask members to trust the narrative, what happens when people start asking for the receipts? As always, I welcome thoughtful discussion in the comments. #Mormonism #LDS #ExMormon #MormonStories #LatterDaySaints #Religion #FaithCrisis #Missionaries #BYU #ChurchNews Links: Debunking False Narratives: https://www.thechurchnews.com/leaders... 6:04 Special Treatment for Mormons: https://searchlightnm.org/former-ad-s... 10:07 Called by God or Committee:    • Majesty of the Missionary Moment   14:14 Peculiar is in the PAST!   / im_the_hostess_of_multimillion_dollar_home_in   https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/s... 15:55 Testimony of Opportunity:    • "This is the only place I wanted to be."   ​​https://universe.byu.edu/sports/todd-...
