Young LDS Women Leaving the Church at Alarming Rates

A new report from BYU Studies highlights a trend of young LDS women leaving the Church, citing politics, purity culture, and powerlessness as key factors. This challenges traditional assumptions about women's religiosity and is a significant cultural concern for LDS families and leaders. A recent podcast transcript by Jana Riess further explores this theme, and a Mormon Stories transcript about a faith crisis adds depth to the broader conversation about member retention.
