In this episode I interview Shawn McCraney, author of “I was a Born-again Mormon” and host of “Heart of the Matter“, a controversial weekly Christian TV show geared towards LDS Church members. In part 1, Shawn discusses his born again experience, and makes his best case for why LDS Church members should also seek to become Born Again. In part 2, I ask Shawn several questions about his style, doctrine and theology. In part 3, I ask Shawn some final questions, and he shares some closing thoughts.

Questions for Shawn McCraney — “Born Again Mormon”

I’m set to do an interview next week with Shawn McCraney. Shawn is a former LDS Church member who is now an evangelical minister in SLC. He is the author of the book “Born Again Mormon” and is the host of the TV show “Heart of the Manner.” Shawn and I talked before agreeing to do the interview. His purpose (nor mine) will not be to bash the LDS church, but instead to share his journey out of Mormonism and into Evangelical Christianity in a respectful way. If you have questions for Shawn, please post them here. Thanks!
