Greg, we appreciate you attempting to address these issues. This hiring is very distressing and painful to see. I am growing weary of attempting to defend the Church against these strange occurrences to conservative members who are leaving the Church. I am getting tired of trying to convince them that the Church is on the right track. I am never going to depart from what I know to be true. I have an unshakeable testimony of the Restored Gospel, but every time something like this happens, I become more deflated and less excited about sharing the Gospel. I must be honest.

I don't understand why he chooses who he does, but I know his thoughts are not our thoughts. Who exactly are we to judge any how

I’m with you. We are with you. I don’t think the church is in apostasy, but the corporate side is sliding. There is free agency for all- even those who hire and are paid. I just wonder if this is tithing without representation. We do not want our tithes going to DEI! But we will continue to make these offerings with faith. Thank you for your voice. We know the gospel and doctrines of Jesus Christ are true!!!

Feel like the Church is leaving me behind. I've felt this way since President Nelson's appointment. I have had a lot of late, sad and lonely nights. But by the next morning I tend to remember that the direction I am facing is more important than how fast I am moving. Am I facing the Lord? Am I at least moving toward him? Yes, and yes. Now get up, get dressed, go to church, and fulfill my callings and ministry. I will see what the Lord has in store for me and my place in His Kingdom in His perfect timing.

Thanks for all you do Greg! I don't have time to study critical theory like you do. Unfortunately, I have a wife and other family situations that make the level of study you are performing very difficult. That being said, I have studied the history of this country, the Gospel itself, very intensely I might add, Recently, as I've made aware on this channel, we are dealing with some serious family trials. Understand though, I've watched you long enough, and people like Jacob Hansen and the Ward Radio guys that keep me informed of a myriad of subjects. Because I've listened for so long, maintained my activity in the church, and kept up on important political subjects, I trust you. You and I see the world very much the same way. I see myself as being very orthodox in my religious beliefs. I also see myself as one who should be carrying on the legacy of my forefathers. I'm directly related to so many pioneers and early church members that this legacy is always in my head to help keep me pointed in the right direction. My 6th great-grandfather is Joseph Knight; one of the individuals listed to have felt the plates under the cloth. He also provided Joseph and Oliver with food and paper so they didn't have to stop the translation to go work for supplies. My 5th great-grandmother is Phoebe Draper who the city of Draper was named after along with her brother. The first settlers of Maricopa County, AZ were also relatives. Philemon C. Merrill is a direct ancestor, along with many others. I'm so thankful for what they did. The least I can do is maintain my faith and participate in the gathering of Israel. Thanks again for all you do.

Greg, I have been listening to you for a long time. I think your approach handles thè topic it with Grace and Faith. We are truly in the time prophesied when the Saints would have to rest on their own testimonies and their own relationship with Jesus Christ. I pray that the faithful members of the church do not shrink during these times. One cannot expect celestial blessings without celestial trials of faith and absolute trust in the Lord. My father taught me at a very young age the principal of spheres of influence. And that it is our responsibility to watch over the things that we have been put in charge of and allow the Lord to work with those in spheres that we are not responsible for. This is a classic example of that principle. Hoorah for Israel!!!

Its the trojan horse for evil. This ideology is an enemy to the gospel...which makes it very alarming to see and hear it within the halls of the church...and those who fight or resist it are then judged by others as being an apostate...and lucifer is laughing like its a Saturday night live skit...and yet at general conference all we hear is faith repentance and baptism.

I can be patient with and even extend leniency to faithful members who may not fully understand some doctrine here and there. We're all learning. I struggle, however, to do the same for those who push ideas that run contrary to the doctrines. Especially when it's doctrines that the brethren have taught and clarified in the most plain ways possible. That is, by definition, apostasy. And yes, I believe apostates should not be considered for employment by the church. I've worked for a company owned by the church for 20 years and have seen employees lose their bishop's endorsements and consequentially their jobs simply for not attending sunday meetings. They may have been weak in testimony but haven't gone as far as publicly contradicting doctrine.

Most all who are exercised about inclusion, equity and other woke attitudes truly believe they are saving the Country, improving the Church, etc. None of that will change unless the Brethren see fit to make definitive and unambiguous statements against the place these ideologies have within the Church. Until then, it’s up to people like you and me to continue to call it out and to reject it. Like the other side, we too absolutely believe in the values we espouse and and feel a need to fight against those things that will devalue the ultimate message of the Church which is the restored Gospel of Christ.

It’s confusing to those who are convinced that the doctrine is going to change. It’s confusing to those of us who are grasping the iron rod and defending our faith. We have been cautioned to avoid any hint of condoning or advocating for things that do not align with the doctrine of the church. And the church hires a man who is doing exactly that? Fortunately, I have yet to hear our leaders supporting this ideology. That is what we need to hold to. For anyone confused, please listen to Elder Holland’s talk, “The Cost and Blessings of Discipleship.” It clearly points us in the right direction.

Thanks Greg for mentioning context. I brought up the situation with this hiring to my family and they are just clueless to the context and background. They became immediately defensive and brought up this as trouble being made by conspiracy minded folks. The real problem is, when being inside and standing up for concerns or just confusion, the culture usually in the church is to automatically defend without any understanding of the reason for concern. The culture of “follow the prophets” is deep and has mistakenly created a blind allegiance that is problematic for any side taken. I was part of the prop 8 efforts we were asked by the church to assist in. I find this being in complete conflict to the belief and activism this individual supports. This is confusing to any member that is aware of DEI and critical theory and we are not getting answers from our leadership to address our concerns. Wish actual GA’s could speak and address these concerns in a open way. It feels for awhile the leaders hide behind the PR curtain and it just seems there is disingenuous things that are occurring. However, to many the narrative is shut up and be obedient. Not feeling the church is transparent when they should be. I’m feeling the spiritual pandemic and I’m a grandpa at that. The church is changing in a way I don’t recognize. Not apostasy per se but just a silo of privilege and leaning to modes of operation that feel progressive and driven by leftist propaganda and ideology. Sherry Dew at Deseret Book seems to be a suspect of the wokeist direction and now this? The trajectory is becoming clear. And if this is what are leaders are asking us to defend they need to explain in a big way. Otherwise, what the heck were we doing in the prop 8 situation when it apparently doesn’t matter. Was the church wrong then and it was just a Monson thing? Wow, if we are not confused we then must be ignorant because this is becoming clearer and clearer of what the GA’s are navigating our culture to.

I am grateful YOU have the courage to keep us informed on important topics such as these. It’s pretty insane what gets past the leaders with these important topics. Good way to discribe it “SPIRITUAL PANDEMIC.” I think your correct on all points. When our prophet encouraged us to “get the jab” I was dumbfounded. It didn’t shake my faith, I never questioned him being a prophet but it was the first time in my 65 yrs of life I disagreed with the prophet. As I prayed about it (as he encouraged us to do) I knew it wasn’t church doctrine or principal it was his opinion as a Dr. I love our dear prophet.❤️

Thank you Greg for standing firm. The scriptures and the prophets have both taught us that we must build a firm foundation on the rock of our Redeemer. Without a testimony in Christ and his Gospel we will not be able to survive spiritually in the days ahead. We can see this happening all around us and it is gut wrenching to see our family members and friends lose their faith in the gospel. We have even more trials coming in the days ahead. We have to decide where and what we stand for. I am not the judge of my family members, friends, neighbors, or strangers. I do not know what is in their heart. It is tragic that people cannot distinguish between beliefs that are true or false. We sometimes live and act based on our false beliefs. Doing so harms our relationships with God and others. It is my prayer every day to live in such a way that I can be a good example of God's love for others. God Bless!

In this case probably the Presiding Bishopric, which handles the day to day administrative tasks of the Corporate Church. At some point I'd start questioning any claims of discernment.

Proposition 8 in California, cemented in my mind this one phrase: Marriage is between a man and a woman. Many outside of CA did not have the honor of following the prophet (Monson) in giving everything to promote the Yes on Prop 8 campaign. And we won. So when I read that the new comms director advocates for marriage equality, I doubt he lived in California in 2008. Keep up the good work Greg.

I'm usually somewhat averse to listening to members of the church (that are not officially serving as a General Authority) talk about political, cultural, or church policy issues, because I feel like many in that realm are flirting with apostasy. When I came across one of your videos a few years back I was initially suspicious, but I quickly found that you were different. I have never once heard you speak against the core doctrines of the restored gospel and I see nothing but unwavering support of the prophets and apostles from you. Your voice has become incredibly important, because it's a message that our General Authorities can't always or maybe even shouldn't address head on (as much as I sometimes wish they would). Instead, they will continue to teach the pure doctrines and principles of the gospel, which when properly understood and applied, go in direct contrast to the religion of academia you warn so much about... and that we are sadly seeing seep into certain branches of the church. But I firmly believe that the foundation of our church (prophets and apostles) will never deviate from Christ, because this is His church. Hold fast to the rod everyone, because the mists are absolutely getting thicker. Thanks, Greg, for filling this "calling" of yours and standing up for truth, while inspiring the rest of us to do the same.

Revisit the Gospel regarding Sodom and Gomorrah… when LDS individuals make excuses for sin and encourage others to embrace such sinful behaviour we are ushering in another Sodom and Gomorrah… I agree that we must be patience, sustain our leaders and wait for the outcome of this Brother’s appointment however, having researched his activities, I feel we need an explanation… why remove posts at this point .. we need to know what this Bothers intentions are for the future .. I know without doubt that what is happening in the world today is promoted and sustained by Woke culture .. the only way Communism can take a country is my weakening moral standards … Stalin said if we give young people what they think they want ( after persuading them to chose evil over good ) then he could take the country … While those of us who protest against what is happening today, we set out to strive personally to obey Father’sCommandments, we also strive to maintain His Commandment by protecting His Gospel and standards found there in.. otherwise ,another Sodom and Gomorrah and all of the sadness that brings into people’s lives… far better to strive to protect others from embracing sinful behaviour than to cheer them on down that slippery slope ..

Greg I appreciate your efforts to be fair-minded and making your position clear and how you view this ideology that's creeping into the church. I agree with one of the other comments on here that was made previously, we can't ignore the politics. We have to take a stand with our words and our interactions. They must be in sync with each other and in harmony. You have an episode I haven't watched yet why people are leaving the church, but I have to say with the church's support for the vaccine an relying uoon false data and information. yheir discernment comes into question for the pressure they put members at both Ricks BYU & BYU Provo as well at the church office building and on members at the Tabernacle Choir and other entities associated with the Church that members coukd attend or participate in getting thr vaxx. Some of the Apostles mocked members of the church about getting the vaccine. They stopped people from going to church for a time and then went along with this corruption that we're finding out that's been corrupt about COVID-19 from day one especially by Dr fauci. All these things add up and need to be weighed and measured through personal revelation and discernment; but I have to say that the Church is leadership. I cannot sustain their support for these bad ideologies and their bad hiring practices and fir not taking a stand on keeping Commandments of god more strict. Nephi warned that corruption would contaminate the people of thr Church in the last days. Moroni said I see you're (our) doing. I Absolutely believe in the gospeland refuse to throw the baby out with the bathwater. You're a good soul Greg, I appreciate your faithfulness and your goodness. I can feel that from your videos.

A Mississippi bishop who went to the pulpit one recent Sunday and publicly resigned his calling while his exmo brother premeditatedly filmed the whole thing which they have put on you tube to make money. They hijacked the ward members spiritual sacrament meeting and sucked the spirit out of the room for those who came for the right reason. Because it was "all about him". How did he ever get called as a bishop to begging with. I believe people change, they are not vigilant and satan gets a foot in the door and some lose their true testimony. They blame the entire church for one member's actions or one leader overstepping authority and leave. Its a strangecworld but the scriptures warned us that it would be hard in latter days.

And in these hard times if we pray always, keep the commandments and our covenants, we can hopefully protect ourselves in these trying times.
