The March 13th Call In Hour with Shawn McCraney
In this episode of Talk with Shawn, Delaney and Shawn McCraney tackle a range of deep topics, from trauma drama to eschatology, and even the future of the LDS Church.
The conversation starts with a discussion on perfectionism in religion—how toxic it is and how it manifests in high-demand faith systems. They explore how Mormonism, Catholicism, and even mainstream Christianity fall into this trap, and why real faith requires embracing imperfection and humility.
Key Topics Covered:
- Trauma Drama & Moving Forward – Many who leave religion stay stuck in resentment cycles, constantly focusing on what was wrong rather than moving into something new. Kimberly shares how Shawn’s ministry has helped her start to move beyond that phase.
- The LDS Church: Can It Reform? – Shawn and Delaney discuss whether the Mormon Church could evolve by dropping its fabricated history while keeping its strong community structure. Could there be a movement of Jesus-focused Latter-day Saints who separate from Smith’s theology?
- Eschatology Insights from Grady – Grady calls in to discuss 66 AD, the Jewish Revolt, and the fate of the early church. He breaks down how history aligns with Yeshua’s prophecy and where Christians likely fled before the destruction of Jerusalem.
- The Cult Proof Conference – Plans are shaping up for this groundbreaking event in September, featuring expert speakers on religious control, spiritual abuse, and how to break free from it.
Big Questions We Discuss:
- How do you move past bitterness after leaving a controlling faith?
- Is there a place for Saints in our spiritual worldview today?
- What does it really mean to be a citizen of heaven today?
- Can institutionalized religion evolve into something healthier?
This episode is packed with deep, thought-provoking conversations and a lot of laughs along the way. Watch now and join the discussion!
