Mormon Stories Podcast - Un pódcast de Dr. John Dehlin

Jill Searle's story includes: *Being raised LDS and serving a mission. *Entering into a mixed-orientation marriage as a lesbian woman. *Having several children. *Leaving the church, and finding a committed, long term partner (they were married 5 different times...incredible story). *Allowing and even supporting her children to remain active/faithful LDS as a lesbian, ex-Mormon woman, all while the church was waging war on committed LGBT relationships. Katie Searle's story includes: *Being raised Mormon by an orthodox Mormon father and step-mother, and two lesbian ex-Mormon mothers. *Marrying her husband, Nathan Williams. *Co-founding with Nathan a globally successful magazine, Kinfolk. *Facing the excruciating decision to terminate a pregnancy at 6 months. *Dealing with the discovery that her husband, Nathan, is gay, while pregnant with their second child. *Deciding with Nathan to end the marriage. *Coping with a religious faith crisis through all this. *Rebuilding a life and raising her daughter, Vi, as an ex-Mormon single mother. This is an amazing story of responding to tragedy with grace and resilience.
