In today's episode, we are diving into some of the most shocking Mormon-themed entries from Ruby Franke's journal with the well-known true crime and news TikTokker, Julie Louise. Gerardo and John will break down the journal's themes, looking at how they tie back to Latter-day Saint doctrine and practices. Julie knows the Franke/Hildebrandt story inside out, but is a never-Mormon. Combined we hope to provide top-notch commentary and insights as we walk through these pages together. https://www.tiktok.com/@julielouise1975 @julielouise1975 Episode Show Notes: https://www.mormonstories.org/portfolio-items/ruby-frankes-journal/ 00:00:00 Intro 00:03:35 Julie’s introduction 00:12:15 Julie was very emotional going through the journals 00:13:45 Training for the kids was recorded in the journal 00:18:44 Summary of Visions of Glory 00:24:28 The Building Blocks of Ruby, Jodi, Chad, Tim, etc. 00:30:00 The Second Coming in Mormonism 00:32:30 The Pen Papers 00:41:41 Page One of Ruby’s diary 00:43:34 Wall sits for the children 00:46:00 Steven Caplin is a former mission president 00:47:26 Spirits, Evil or Unclean - scripture examples 00:49:43 Clip 1 - Kevin claims Jodi Hildebrandt is possessed 00:57:54 Jeremy R.
