Series Title: Exploration of GC Address ‘For the Sake of Your Posterity’ by E. Godoy [Part I of II]

In this episode Valerie and Nathan discuss Elder Godoy's talk 'For the Sake of Your Posterity'. In this episode they focus on the following: 

• Support of the fundamental importance of the influence of parents
• Deep concerns about fear and guilt tactics used to motivate behavior of church members
• The importance of understanding stages of faith development to offer context and grace instead of judgment 

Friday's part two of this conversation covers the following:

• Several reasons why parents in LDS faith crisis found this address particularly painful
• Val and Nathan's personal experiences as parents navigating parenthood from both perspectives and their reframing of the concept of "weak links" and "strong links" 
• An invitation to the idea that parents considered “weak links” are actually practicing extreme courage and strength in changing their parenting techniques to fit the unique spiritual needs of themselves and their families.

The series explores the potential harm that rigidity, guilt, and fear tactics have on weary and vulnerable parents wrestling with deep spiritual questions. Join Valerie and Nathan this week as they call for a more empathetic approach to parenting in the context of LDS faith journey.Info on how to subscribe to listen to Friday’s episode is directly below.
