This is the audio only from my new YouTube series. See the full video here:

How often do we hear, "Who am I to judge?" in response to LGBTQ topics in a Latter-day Saint context? Sometimes, that's a perfectly reasonable response. But more often, we use that line to justify our fear of addressing the topic altogether.

In this new series, I want to explore the state of the LGBTQ conversation within Latter-day Saint circles. What do we say that unnecessarily alienates people? What might we say that inadvertently undermines important, eternal truths? What are the negative consequences of not saying anything?

In this first video, I explore 3 rationales for maintaining a morally apathetic approach to the question of LGBTQ relationships and identities.

On today’s episode, we’re joined by Lynnette Sheppard from the "Stand with Lynnette" podcast. We get her wisdom as a mother of 5 on how we can raise Gen Z to seek Christ. We discuss the issues we see in Gen Z, the strengths they possess, and offer ideas for raising them to rise above modern standards of morality.

We're back for a new season! 

On today’s episode, why do some church members think the doctrine is unclear when it comes to gay dating? Is it unclear? How can we know, what can we do about it, and how can we move forward? Also, how can a "maybe the doctrine will change" narrative negatively affect church members who experience same-sex attraction?

We’ll also be taking your questions at the end of the episode.

On today’s episode, how do we wish church members would handle LGBTQ issues within the church? 

What does being an "ally" mean, and is there a better alternative to that term?

Why do so many adopt a relativistic approach to morality when dealing with LGBTQ issues? And how can we combat that approach? 

We’ll also be taking questions at the end.

What is a woman? And why is that a controversial question? 

In today's episode, we're tackling womanhood and motherhood. How does the world see them, vs how does God define them? In what ways does our society devalue motherhood in the pursuit of equity?

Also, why are roles so important, and why has that word lost favor?
