Echoes of Resounding Love: A True Story of A Polygamous Kid's Journey to Spiritual Awakening


Listen Later

In today's episode, we have a conversation with Clayne Edward Wayman. He was a former member of the FLDS polygamist group referred to as "The Work." His new book Echos of Resounding love, A true story of a polygamist kid's journey to spiritual awakening" Is a gripping tale of Survival, abuse, faith, suppression, adultery, polygamy, enlightenment, and hope. Clayne has undergone a complete transformation from the lifestyle and beliefs he was raised with. He found the courage to challenge what the Divine means to him and discovered the sacredness of women and the role of men as we evolve. Hearing a man's perspective on this topic is incredibly powerful. The foundation of the polygamist culture is rooted in Patriarchy. Women are treated as currency as they multiply the congregation from within. It also speaks to the early days of the LDS church when members openly practiced polygamy.  Clayne tells a visual story of the challenges he faced in his culture. Some of these moments are hard to hear, but the honesty in his approach is validating, and the reader is cheering him on as they move through the pages. Speaking his truth and telling his story is intended to reach others who are struggling and share his message of love.  In our interview with Clayne, he shares how he put his church's prophecy to the test and how in that process, he discovered the divinity that makes up a woman and, in return, a man as well. We were fascinated by his story and encourage you to purchase his book. It's available for pre-order and immediately for kindle.  https://www.amazon.com/s?k=echos+of+resounding+love&crid=3PR4S5ND8BHLR&sprefix=echos+of+resounding+%2Caps%2C150&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_1_20
