All Episodes

March 5, 2025 • 41 mins

This episode of Jesus for Mormons explores the “Ex-Mormon Curse” and how negative statements from Mormon leaders create a self-fulfilling prophecy. Kai and Di discuss the Pygmalion Effect, showing how ex-Mormons often feel isolated and expect hardship. Kai shares how he was passed over for a head coaching job shortly after leaving the Mormon Church. At first, he questioned if his faith played a role, but later saw it as a blessing, realizing God's plan was greater. The speakers compare leaving Mormonism to escaping an abusive relationship—freedom comes when one stops looking back. They emphasize the importance of trusting God, finding community, and seeking truth. The episode closes with a young adult’s story, highlighting the need for support and resources.
