Today, we’re so excited to share something brand new with you—the very first episode of a new podcast we’re launching here at Faith Matters. It’s called Article 13.
This new narrative podcast brings together cutting-edge research and spiritual wisdom to explore creative paths toward a more connected and compassionate world. As our society grows increasingly divided along political and cultural lines, Article 13—hosted by Zachary Davis—offers a hopeful and constructive alternative. Through deep dives into vital social issues, extraordinary guests, and beautiful sound design, the show models the kind of thoughtful, intelligent discourse our country needs—and offers practical ways each of us can make a difference, starting right where we are.
Today, we’re honored to share Episode 1 of Article 13 with you—it’s titled What We Owe Each Other.
In this episode, Zach is joined by voices like Cornel West, Shaylyn Romney Garrett, and Robert Putnam to explore what rebuilding trust really looks like—and why it matters now. They propose that real renewal begins from the inside out, as we recommit to the people we serve in the institutions we’re already part of—our families, schools, churches, and communities. When we view these roles as shared responsibilities, not personal platforms, we can begin to restore the trust and connection that hold us together.
It’s a thoughtful, timely conversation—and we’re so excited to share it with you. You can find Article 13 wherever you listen to podcasts.

How can we be "anxiously engaged in a good cause"?
What do we do when reality doesn't live up to our ideals? How do we hold on to hope when it feels like the world is ending? What does it look like to be "anxiously engaged in a good cause"? Is it okay to try to fix the church? What does it feel like to repent? How can I relate to God's commandments? What does a Sabbath practice have to do with being anxiously engaged?
How can I speak more openly about the things that matter most to me?
How do I talk to my kids (and myself) about topics like chastity, sexuality, and modesty? Is there a way Latter-day Saints can authentically testify that they know the Restoration is true without sounding (or being) either naïve or intolerant? What does it mean to be a changemaker in a Church that values both institutional authority and ongoing revelation?
