‘Mormon Land’: Is the church in the midst of a sea change — and how might it navigate the rocky waters?

Latter-day Saint blogger says the faith is “in flux” as it strives to chart its future.

(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) Crews get a closer look of the Angel Moroni statue after it was pulled from atop the Salt Lake Temple on Monday, May 18, 2020. The temple closed in December for seismic upgrades and sustained minor damager during the March 18, 2020, magnitude 5.7 earthquake when the trumpet held by the angel fell off and several smaller spire stones were displaced. Fewer and fewer temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are being built without the iconic Moroni statues. This one, however, will be returned to the top of the Salt Lake Temple.
