In this episode, Michael Ash asks, why are some intelligent and rational members negatively affected by critical claims, while others are not?  The full text of this article can be found at Mormon Times.

Brother Ash is author of the book Shaken Faith Syndrome: Strengthening One’s Testimony in the Face of Criticism and Doubt, as well as the book, of Faith and Reason: 80 Evidences Supporting the Prophet Joseph Smith. Both books are available for purchase online through the FAIR Bookstore.

    I enjoyed the sound advice regarding maintenance of our precious testimonies. Scripture study should be aimed at more than just reading scriptures cover to cover:
    1) make it a scholarly exercise to solidify our understanding of core doctrines, inviting the Spirit to give us understanding
    2) prepare to share our testimony and a “reason for our hope”
    3) prepare to defend against specious arguments by well-intended critics who usually parrot “canned criticism” prepared by mal-intended people such as Kramer or Decker.
