If you're a PhD student, postdoc, or independent scholar working in Mormon studies, please consider applying to the Eugene England Summer Institute, which I co-lead with @taylorpetrey.bsky.social and Jana Riess. Our first year was an incredible experience & we expect the second year to be as well.

The LDS church unveiled new, skimpier garments. But the right to bare shoulders is causing a stir among the Mormon and ex-Mormon communities.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints named Presiding Bishop Gérald Caussé on Thursday as its newest apostle, a Frenchman known for his ecclesiastical oversight of the faith’s financial empire and his support for Earth stewardship and sustainability.
LDS Church names a new apostle. Hint: He knows a lot about the faith’s money.

Dialogue co-editors Caroline Kline and Margaret Olsen Hemming sit down with Nancy Ross and Kristine Haglund to explore what garments mean today: as sacred objects, as cultural symbols, and as instruments that shape behavior and identity in the Church.

This has been a really rough few days. I recently learned of a controversy around our book THE PRINCESS IN BLACK AND THE PRINCE IN PINK. Some were outraged that Deseret Book carried it (a chain of bookstores in the west). Deseret Book appears to have complied to their demands and removed it. 1/
Cover of The princess in black and the prince in pink by Shannon Hale, Dean Hale, and LeUyen Pham. It shows a young girl in black mask and superhero outfit dancing with a young boy in pink mask and pink hero outfit. Bands of words stripe the cover, saying "all kids have a right to exist" and "please let's show love for all kinds of kids"
