Founder, Mormon Stories
Dehlin founded the Mormon Stories podcast in 2005, interviewing believing, doubting and former Latter-day Saints, and later publicly supported Ordain Women and same-sex marriage. He was excommunicated in February 2015. Commentators in Dialogue group his case with Denver Snuffer's (2013) and Kate Kelly's (2014) on the ground that all three founded organizations the Church regarded as rival institutions, rather than merely publishing criticism. He is the owner of the database this synthesis is written for.

Press reports of the decision letter attributed it to his spreading of what the letter called false concepts; commentators in Dialogue link his case to his support for Ordain Women and for same-sex marriage, and note that he, Kate Kelly and Denver Snuffer all founded organisations the Church treated as rival institutions rather than merely publishing criticism.
