I got an unexpected magazine subscription at work. After taking care of business, I noticed an article entitled "How 'Business for Good' Went Bad." As I suspected, the article discussed the rise and decline of "stakeholder capitalism" more popularly called "woke capitalism."

Economic historians agree that what caused all the big corporations to "go woke" was a blueprint from the World Economic Forum after the housing market crash in...

This episode is part 18 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

This episode covers chapters 15-18 of the book of Mosiah. This is part of the record that Ammon read.

This record continues Abinadi's sermon to King Noah and his priests. When Abinadi finishes, the king sentences him to die. One of the priests was a young man named Alma who pleads for the king to spare Abinadi. This stunt resulted in Alma being cast ou...

It's that time of the year again! Not Christmas, but the next best thing. My wife Chelsea and I were at the annual Rocky Mountain Homeschool Conference. During this two-and-a-half-day conference full of exhibits and workshop presentations, I wandered around the booths and recorded some interviews.

This episode is part 17 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

This episode covers Mosiah 15:1-9 and its clear teaching of modalism. These verses sound like something a Oneness Pentecostal might say.

This episode explains the Trinity and how Oneness Pentecostalism differs with clips from Dr. David K. Bernard of the UPCI.

Then, we compare what Oneness theology says with what Mosiah 15:1-9 claims about Jesus. Also, t...

This episode is part 16 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

This episode covers chapters 9-14 of the book of Mosiah. This is part of the record of King Limhi's grandfather Zeniff that Ammon read.

It explains that Zeniff reclaimed the land of Nephi but only by the Lamanites giving him a part of the land. While Zeniff was king, the Nephites and the Lamanites battled several times. The Nephites won, but with bitte...

This episode is part 15 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

This episode covers chapters 4-8 of the book of Mosiah. King Benjamin passes the crown of Zarahemla to his son Mosiah. The people all covenant with God and take on the name "the children of Christ."

After King Benjamin passes away three years later, King Mosiah sends a band of men to the land of Nephi to find out what happened to others they had sent. ...

A Christian leader recently confessed to writing anonymous posts criticizing fellow ministers. The worst part was lying about it for over two years.

Why did this happen when it doesn't seem to make sense?

We need to examine ourselves for pride. Pride is the dangerous original sin that can make you do strange things to hold onto the things you hold dear for the wrong reasons. Pride leads to other sins and covering them up like lying a...

My wife Chelsea returns to Truthspresso and our oldest son joins us to chat about Colorado's radical gender bill that has provoked national attention.

HB25-1312, also known as the "Kelly Loving Act," seeks to transform society to "protect" "rights" for people who identify as a gender contrary to their birth certificate.

The original version of the bill sought to bias courts to grant custody to children to whomever would "affirm" alte...

This episode is part 14 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

This episode covers the first three chapters of the book of Mosiah. We have now shifted to the land of Zarahemla to see how they relate to the land of Nephi, and are 300-400 years removed from Jacob, the son of Lehi.

King Benjamin who succeeded his father Mosiah to the throne of Zarahemla is now old. He will speak to the people to pass the throne to hi...

This episode is part 13 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

This episode covers three small books that follow the Book of Jacob: Enos, Jarom, and Omni.

There is a lot about the brass plates being passed down from generation to generation and how the Nephites fare against the Lamanites.

Some questions arise with the date ranges and the age of Jacob when he died. We look at a few anachronisms in the Book of Mormon...

I hope you had a blessed Resurrection Day! In honor of our Lord's resurrection, let's do a deep dive into some Old Testament Scriptures that I believe prophesied about the resurrection of Jesus.

On the road to Emmaus, Jesus criticized people for not believing that the Scriptures prophesied about His own sufferings and glory that would follow. Jesus used the Scriptures to explain this to them. Could these have been some of the passag...

This episode is part 12 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

In Jacob chapter 6, Jacob uses the allegory of the vineyard from the prophet Zenos mentioned in the previous chapter to call the people of Nephi to reflect and repent. Of course, I point out where I see statements that are borrowed from the Bible.

In Jacob chapter 7, Jacob encounters a heretic named Sherem who teaches that no "Christ" will come. After ...

This episode is part 11 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

In Jacob chapter 5, Jacob relays the "mystery" he just mentioned. It's something the Nephites as children of Israel should have read or heard. A prophet named Zenos wrote an allegory of Israel as an olive tree. This allegory clearly borrows from several passages of the Bible, but adds far more detail.

Did you know that an ancient prophet in Israel wrot...

This episode is part 10 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

In Jacob chapter 3, Jacob continues his sermon against the people of Nephi for their pride, greed, and polygamy. I discuss a little about the polygamy issue I raised in the last part. Jacob also warns the Nephites that, if they don't repent, they could end up with darker skin than the Lamanites. Apparently, in the ancient Americas, sin affects skin. A...

This episode is kind of a break from the series through the Book of Mormon.

1 Corinthians 15:29 is a verse that has confounded many Christians and spawned up to 30 possible interpretations. It is the only verse that mentions people being "baptized for the dead."

This episode will explain five interpretations for "baptized for the dead":

1. submitting to the "baptism" of suffering and death itself for Jesus
2. a ritual of being baptized o...

This episode is part 9 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

The book of Jacob continues from where 2 Nephi finished. Nephi passes away and his people get a second king. However, this king seems more like Rehoboam after Solomon. The people of Nephi backslide in wealth and pride. Worst of all many men start taking multiple wives and concubines.

Of course, we had to compare this with Doctrine and Covenants section ...

This episode is part 8 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

In 2 Nephi chapters 30-33, the elder Nephi talks about "the doctrine of Christ." Over 500 years before the event happened Nephi describes a prophet baptizing Jesus and the Holy Ghost descending like a dove. He also mentions "entering the straight gate" and the "narrow way" before Jesus said these things.

To enter the straight gate means to repent and be...
