Tonight’s top story looks at new national data revealing a growing gap inside the LDS Church — especially among Gen Z members. While many young adults are stepping away entirely, new research shows that those who remain often continue outward religious behaviors like church attendance and temple participation. But beneath the surface, something deeper is happening. Only a minority of Gen Z Latter-day Saints report finding sacrament meeting uplifting. Confidence in prophetic leadership has dropped sharply compared to older generations. Daily religious practices like scripture study, prayer, garment wearing, and full tithing adherence are all significantly lower than they once were. In other words, many young members are still showing up — but fewer are actually believing, feeling, or engaging in the way previous generations did. Tonight, we break down the data point by point and explore what it reveals about faith, identity, cognitive dissonance, and why increased outward devotion among remaining believers may actually signal pressure, not strength. This is not speculation. This is not anecdote. This is what the numbers actually say. Plus, we’ll cover additional top Mormon news stories shaping the week such as Colorado Springs Temple News, LDS Missionary Fall, Texas Land Grab, Lucifer’s Lantern, & LDS Drilling For consecrated Oil
