Leaving Mormonism - Talking with Your Family about Your Exit

Your leaving Mormonism and you've dealt with the emotions and your questions. Now you've gotta tell your family. How do you do that without burning bridges? Bo and KD share their insights.

  1. Why leave in the first place?
  2. The Mormon Church has a great community, positive upbringing (for the most part), and a belief in eternal families… so why leave?
  3. We talked the past two weeks about the emotions and questions that come up when you realize what you’ve believed in or were raised in turned out to be false…
  4. To find and gain a relationship with Jesus, the biblical Jesus.
  5. Luke 14:26
  6. Love Jesus above all else… even family
  7. How to approach the conversation
  8. Explaining your perspective
  9. Explaining why you’re leaving
  10. It’s important to call out what you no longer believe, but even more important to point out what you do believe in moving forward
  11. Most family members will still want to respect your beliefs and support you
  12. Some won’t… simple as that.
  13. Emotions will run high, so try to remain level
  14. Leave room for your family’s emotions as well as your own
  15. Keep it simple and straightforward

  16. How to handle the aftermath
  17. You’ll likely be faced with plenty of questions / rebuttals
  18. Mormons are Christians too, why leave to find Jesus?
  19. Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater…
  20. Covenants
  21. Man can make mistakes (ie. Joseph Smith)
  22. Book of Mormon
  23. Mormon Gospel
  24. What about Eternal Families?
  25. What about the spiritual experiences you’ve had?
  26. What next?
  27. You’ve left the Mormon Church… NOW WHAT?
  28. Isaiah 41:10
  29. “Don’t be afraid for I am with you”
