About

A note to our readers

Thank you for visiting the blog version of The Mormon Worker. The Mormon Worker is an independent newspaper devoted to Mormonism and radical politics, and is printed quarterly. To view articles online or subscribe to the print edition, please visit www.themormonworker.org.  The paper is modeled after the legendary Catholic Worker which has been in publication for over seventy years.

The primary objective of The Mormon Worker is to meaningfully connect core ideas of Mormon theology with a host of political, economic, ecological, philosophical, and social topics.

Although most contributors of The Mormon Worker are members of the LDS church, some are not, and we accept submissions from people of varying secular and religious backgrounds. The opinions expressed in The Mormon Worker are not the official views of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

In solidarity,
The Mormon Worker staff

    Great blog! I just stumbled across you on LDS BLOGS. My husband and I just built a website (MormonsMadeSimple.com) which uses simple, explanatory videos to explain the Mormon faith. Feel free to embed one of our videos in your blog, if you think it would be a good missionary tool.

    Thanks!
    Laurel & Doug

    Wow,
    What an interesting find! I found you when I was looking for an image of Eugene Debs for a post on my blog. I hope its alright if I took it. I am not sure what the ethics of taking images from other peoples blogs and posting them on mine.

    Anyway, for obvious reasons your blog is somewhat of an oddity, but that is alright. Anybody working for a more just world is a friend of mine.

    I have of course heard of the Catholic Worker, I do know that a religious left exists, I just never thought I would come across the Mormon Worker. I am going to have a look-see and will bookmark you.
    Regards,
    Sheldon

    Hi, I’m looking for a full copy of that talk from Dec. 3, 1977 that Spencer W. Kimball gave in San Antonio TX…any idea where I can get it? I’ve combed the Internet. Thanks!

    i was fascinated to learn that there are many leftist mormons out there! I was born and raised in the church and after leaving i wonder how other active members deal with the church’s past and present policies on race, homosexuality, feminism, the historiocity/authenticity of church texts, authority and so on.
