Lori's Mormon husband followed his feelings right into an affair and his deception rocked both their worlds. But God used it and the fallout to draw them to truth and to Jesus.

At the end of last week, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the long-standing right to bodily autonomy for women, including the right to medical abortion. With the end of the protections put forth in Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey, we are now entering a time in which each state has the right to determine when to allow abortion legally. The ruling was lauded by some, including many Latter-day Saints, and it was met with anger and devastation by many who champion reasonable access to abortion. How might we as Latter-day Saints improve our understanding of the issues and strong feelings held by proponents on both sides of the debate? What does our religion say about the reasons that we are here on earth and how God acts in the universe and with us individually? Most surveys of Latter-day Saints suggest that they are primarily pro-life, but what are some LDS principles that guide those who take a pro-choice stance? How does this position fit within their wider spirituality, as well? Does Mormonism's theology of God entail sensibilities that give more room to its adherents than what is typically entailed in the God described by wider Christianity? In this episode, LDF host Dan Wotherspoon is joined by the wonderful and powerful Jody England Hansen and Jana Spangler in the discussion outlined above. Listen in!

Returning home early, he dealt with clinical PTSD, depression, and was understandably bitter toward God. Preston wrote about his experience of healing through Christ's atonement in his new book, "This Boy and His Mother"—the title coming from a quote in Elder Holland's conference talk, "Behold Thy Mother," in which he detailed some of Preston's story.   On today's episode, we talk about Preston's experience, the book, and some of the key lessons he learned in the healing process. You can purchase Preston's book here:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B59HFQLJIf you enjoyed this episode, please leave us a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or whatever platform you use. Subscribe to your YouTube Channel!https://youtube.com/channel/UCQLkj5TX9vqhibqdj8yi0RgFollow us on Instagramhttps://instagram.com/sitdownwithsky?utm_medium=copy_linkFollow us on Twitterhttps://twitter.com/sitdownwithsky?s=21All of our links:https://linktr.ee/Sitdownwithsky
