Today I sit down with Patrick Mason, LDS scholar and author of the new book “Planted”.  We talk about doubt, the struggle that a faith transition is.  We talk about the messiness of issues and what is needed for us to better support our struggling brothers and sisters.  Patrick takes on all questions and pulls no punches.  This is as honest and authentic as anyone I have had on the podcast.  If you do nothing else, purchase planted and read chapter 1 and give it to those whose support you need.   From the first Chapter he deals empathetically and honestly with both the doubter and the person who loves and supports them.  What an amazing interview….. I hope you like it.
