Join us on a discussion of where beliefs come from, what to do when they are challenged, and how we can take ownership of what we accept or reject.

Danielle Calder walks us through her personal highs and lows in her faith transition. Danielle is uniquely qualified to talk about this topic as a therapist specializing in religious trauma. She is also a great friend and former missionary companion. Trigger Warning, suicidal themes.

Has being “right” ever gotten in the way of bridge building? My cousin Sam and I discuss what it means to be “right”, the value of truth, and how we can hold space for both our truth and our love in our bridge building relationships. Notes were taken from “Without the Spirit ye shall not teach” by Michelle Garrett church News staff writer from Church News. May 19th, 2013, and John C. Pingree’s most recent Conference address Oct 2023.

Scott is the first co-host to be on an episode who is openly Gay. His bridge building game is on point, and has many flourishing relationships with members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Come learn about the role of expectations and standards, and learn why using our judgement is actually a good thing.

Join us for a special opportunity to interview the man who wrote the book that inspired this podcast, David Ostler! David is the author of “Bridges: Ministering to those who question” and his book helps active participating members gain more understanding for the challenges that those on the other side of the bridge face. It is an excellent resource for families experiencing faith transitions. Emily and I have the precious opportunity to interview David together to maintain both perspectives and fulfill a dream made over a year ago. If you don’t listen to any episode but one, choose this one!
