His last piece was on the cult of obedience that seems to be being re-inforced more and more of late.

I think the outcome is an already decided certainty. Rock knows his scriptures and the handbook back to front and inside out though and will certainly call them out on every deviance from scripture.
I doubt it will change anything but will hopefully make one or two start to pause and think.
On another note I fail to see what the Church is trying to acheive with the ongoing purge of members who do not conform to the 100% mormon stereotype.
Rock, Denver, Dehlin, Kelly, Calder are all still doing exactly what they were before and still have an audience. In my mind it changes nothing, and does nothing to address or make the issues go away.
All they are going to do is make the Church a much smaller, more hardcore cultish place. Which is fine if that's what they want but surely the financial numbers are going to stop adding up at some point if they carry on down this route.
