Dan McClellan was working full time as a scripture translation supervisor for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 2023, when he quit his post of 10 years to go all-in as a podcaster and social media influencer.
Rather than peddling parenting or workout tips, <a href='https://danielomcclellan.wordpress.com/about/'>McClellan</a>, who has a doctorate in theology and religion, has attracted more than 1 million followers with his hot takes on the Good Book. Through it all, the author of “<a href='https://www.amazon.com/Bible-Says-So-Scriptures-Controversial/dp/1250347467'>The Bible Says So</a>,” due out in April, is particularly interested in rooting out misconceptions about what the text teaches.
On this week’s Yuletide “Mormon Land,” McClellan help us better understand the evolution of the story of the Nativity and how the rendition enacted in countless Christian households this season — scenes dominated by toddlers donning bath robes and lightsabers doubling as shepherds’ hooks — strays from the descriptions found in the Gospels and historical records.
