Religious trauma occurs when a person's religious experiences cause deep emotional, psychological, or spiritual harm. It can stem from controlling or fear-based beliefs, strict religious environments, or experiences of shame and rejection tied to faith. This kind of trauma often affects how people see themselves, others, and even the world around them—leaving lasting wounds that take time, compassion, and understanding to heal.Mormonish is joined by religious trauma coaches Bill Reel and Teresa Hobbs to explore systems in place to move beyond religious trauma to a healthier life.Thank you so much for watching Mormonish Podcast!***How to DONATE to Mormonish Podcast: If you would like to help financially support our podcast, you can DONATE to support Mormonish Podcast here: Mormonish Podcast is a 501(c) (3) https://donorbox.org/mormonish-podcast ****WE HAVE MERCH! **** If you'd like to purchase Mormonish Merch, you can visit our Merch store here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/mormonishmerch We appreciate our Mormonish viewers and listeners so much!

It's fall, it's October and the US Supreme Court is back in session. On today's episode, we have a special guest from the AFJ Justice team. We are joined by our colleague Jamal Lockings. With Jamall we will cover the big cases to be heard by the court. Then we will talk about how nonprofits can get involved with supreme court advocacy, nominees, and more while staying nonpartisan and being mindful of lobbying limits.    Attorneys for this Episode  Brittany Hacker  Susan Finkle Sourlis  Jamaal Lockings     Intro to Justice Program  Our justice team works on both federal and state judicial appointments and elections and runs numerous invaluable resources including our judicial vacancy tracker and helps keep us and the public informed about nominees. This includes the decisions they make after they've been confirmed, and how cases in federal courts – especially the supreme court – are impacting our civil rights and democracy.     Today, we are thrilled to be joined on the pod by our friend and colleague Jamaal Lockings. Jamaal is a fellow attorney who serves as a Dorot Fellow on the Federal Courts team.   Today we want to talk about the upcoming cases in this supreme court term, what we should be keeping an eye on, the potential impacts for our c3 partners, and what nonprofits can do during this term and future terms to advocate.     Cases to watch out for this term  Voting Rights and Money In Politics  Louisiana v. Callais  Issue: Whether a states efforts to comply with the VRA is, in itself, a form of racial discrimination   (1) Rehearing from last term (2) The Court is playing politics (3) the VRA is on the chopping block   Consequences: A final blow to the VRA, and increased difficulty for minority voters to participate in free and fair elections   National Republican Senatorial Committee v. FEC  Issue: Whether to maintain the federal limits on political party coordination w/ candidates in campaign advertising.   (1) Could render campaign contribution limits meaningless, increasing the already outsized influence of money in politics (2) These cases on elections and voting rights can't be observed in a vacuum     LGBTQ+   Chiles v. Salazar   Issue: Whether Colorado's ban on “conversion therapy” for minors violates First Amendment protections of free speech and religious exercise   (1) Religious litigants have been notoriously successful in this court (2) free speech and religious exercise have been used not to ensure equity or equality but to prop up Christian nationalist ideology.   West Virginia v. B.P.J.   Issue: Title IX and barring Trans athletes   (1) This court continues to wade into culture wars (2) It's ruling in Skrmetti and Justice Barrett's assertion that Trans isn't a protected states (3) Embolden lawmakers to continue to write oppressive laws against trans individuals    Executive Power & Civil Liberties   Trump v. Slaughter   Issue: whether statutory removal protections for members of the FTC – and agencies like it – “violate” the separation of powers.    (1) The Court's emergency orders this summer (2) growing belief in the unitary executive theory (3) Likely to overrule Humphrey's executor  Consequences: Collapse of independent agencies and with it, governing stability.     What c3s can do:  Supreme court advocacy is nonpartisan—you are free to stand for or against cases before any court or get involved in the cases.   Litigation at the supreme court: c3s are often the best voice and represent groups who otherwise would not be heard or could not bring such large scale cases  Amicus briefs   Educating the public about cases and impacts of opinions  As you know c3 public charities may engage in lobbying and there are ways through lobbying that can affect the courts at the federal or maybe the state level  Nominee advocacy—Advocate for or against nominees to supreme court (lobbying)  Remember the lower district courts and circuit courts as well  Remember the lobbying rules if you are a c3: must track and report your lobbying the IRS and stay within your lobbying limits. Great place for c4s to get involved because they can lobbying in an unlimited amount.  Ethics advocacy—ask congress for more oversight or ethics rules (Lobbying if it will require a legislative vote).   Resources  Alliance for Justice, Being a Player  Alliance for Justice, Confirmation of Supreme Court Justices  Alliance for Justice, Judicial Nominee Tracker  Alliance for Justice, Supreme Court Reform 

Neoborn Caveman reflects on history's lessons to prevent civil war, blending satire with calls for humanity's preservation amid rising divisions. NC recounts Balkan atrocities under the Ustashas, from Prebilovci school massacres to Jasenovac horrors, highlighting generalizations' dangers and media distortions that fuel enmity. He critiques the Cloward-Piven strategy's overload tactics in modern immigration and crises, Ottoman legacies in Yugoslavia's fractures, Sunni-Shia Muslim divides and how they affect Western countries through immigration, and First Nations' overlooked slave-owning past, urging unity over rage to counter globalist techno-feudal cages.Music guests: InoxidablesKey TakeawaysHistory reveals patterns to avoid repeating civil wars and massacres.Generalizations breed hatred and overlook good people in every group.Media portrays events to manipulate perceptions and sow division.Governments and extremists exploit crises for control and collapse.Unity across differences builds stronger communities than walls or fences.Religious and ethnic labels mask shared humanity and common enemies.Atrocities like in Jasenovac show evil's scale when unchecked by reason.Immigration without checks risks importing unresolved conflicts.Past empires' conquests echo in today's border and identity struggles.Preserving stories counters falsified narratives and eternal enmities.Techno-feudalism threatens sovereignty more than open dialogue.Pro-humanity choices prioritize wholeness over emotional rage.Sound Bites"Never generalize.

In the winter of 1838–1839, the Prophet Joseph Smith and several Church leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints were imprisoned in Liberty Jail, Missouri — a cold, cramped dungeon that became a “prison-temple” of revelation. Doctrine and Covenants sections 121, 122, and 123 capture Joseph's heartfelt cries to God and the Lord's powerful response about enduring adversity with faith, patience, and charity. This episode explores the intense persecution of the Saints in Missouri, the unlawful imprisonment of Church leaders, and the spiritual lessons that arose from one of the darkest times in early Church history. As Joseph faced betrayal, loss, and despair, God taught eternal truths about priesthood, humility, and the refining power of trials. Join us as we uncover how these revelations can help you face your own Liberty Jail moments — finding strength when everything seems turned against you, and trusting that “all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good.”

Send us a messageIn the Holy and Reverential Fear of God, our purposes in this Study will first and foremost be to Glorify the God of our Salvation, and also to expose the many Satanic counterfeits that oppose the True knowledge of Him and His Only Begotten Son, Lord Jesus the Christ, Who is One with the Father, and the only Way that leads to Eternal Life.This message holds vital importance – especially now – in these last prophetic minutes of the Last Hour. For deception has reached its highest plateau, and many are falling into the enemy's trap of delusion.In 1 Timothy 4:1-2, we read the prophetic words spoken by the Apostle Paul that have echoed down through the corridors of time having reached the very moment in which we are now living:“The Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons, by means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron.”In this Study, we will be uncovering many of these demonic persuasions while pointing the way to the Only One Who alone is the Way, and the Truth, and the Life – Yeshua Hamashiah – Jesus the Messiah!Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/

Alex Ferrari and Aaron Abke discuss the origins of Christian theology, emphasizing that many core Christian beliefs, such as Original Sin and the concept of Jesus as God, trace back to Paul rather than Jesus. They argue that Jesus's teachings focused on repentance and love, contrasting with the later Greek and Hellenistic influences that distorted his message. Aaron highlights the Essenes' influence on Jesus's teachings, noting their unique practices like baptism for the remission of sins. They also discuss the historical evidence of Jesus's travels to Egypt, India, and Tibet, as documented in the Nicholas Notovich text, and the misrepresentation of Jesus's appearance and teachings by later Christian traditions.Alex Ferrari and Aaron Abke discuss the role of ego in human experience, arguing that ego is not inherently negative but essential for motivation and protection. Aaron's book, "The Sufferer's Guide to Freedom," posits that the ego must be integrated rather than eliminated, as it is an activity, not an entity. They explore the three core beliefs of ego: lack, attachment, and control, and how these manifest in negative emotions like sadness, anger, and fear. Aaron emphasizes the importance of understanding emotions as reflections of the mind and using them to reveal and address underlying beliefs. They also touch on the concept of nostalgia and the need for humanity to transcend fear to achieve self-realization.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

In recent months, Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced a ban on “Sharia law and Sharia compounds” in the state, citing longstanding principles that U.S. and Texas law take precedence over conflicting foreign law. This position is reflected in the 2017 American Laws for American Courts statute and in an Attorney General opinion affirming that contracts violating Texas public policy cannot be enforced.These commitments were tested in a North Texas family law case, where an Islamic prenuptial agreement called for disputes to be resolved under religious law. The Texas Supreme Court ultimately stayed the arbitration order and ordered review of the original arbitration agreement for "validity and enforceability."Other recent developments - including video accounts of a Houston imam calling for boycotts of certain businesses and reports of a proposed Muslim-exclusive residential community (“EPIC”) - have prompted legislative responses such as HB 4211, which requires property transfer disclosures and ensures disputes are adjudicated under Texas and U.S. law.How should courts weigh religious arbitration against constitutional and statutory protections? What legal tools exist to address disputes that implicate cultural or religious norms? How can Americans both respect religious diversity and uphold constitutional imperatives?Featuring:Qanta A.

Sermon Summary — “Jesus Is the Only Way” Text: John 6:41–71; John 11; Philippians 3 Theme: “Nowhere Else to Go — Jesus Alone Is Life” Speaker: Pastor Matthew Robbins (LWWC) 1. Introduction: The Question of Direction Pastor opened with John 6:41–71, the account of Jesus declaring, “I am the bread which came down from heaven.” The sermon's central image was Peter's confession: “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.” This statement marked a turning point — when many walked away, the true disciples realized there is nowhere else to go but Jesus. Title meaning: “Jesus is the only way” is not merely doctrine — it's a life decision point every believer must reach. 2. Jesus, the Bread of Life Jesus contrasts spiritual nourishment with physical hunger: “Your fathers ate manna in the wilderness and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.” The Jews misunderstood, thinking literally of flesh and blood; Jesus was speaking spiritually — about receiving Him fully. The pastor emphasized that many today make the same mistake — trying to understand God naturally instead of spiritually. The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The Spirit and the Word always agree — the Holy Spirit never contradicts Scripture. 3. The Division of Disciples As Jesus spoke hard truths, many followers turned back. Jesus asked the Twelve, “Do you also want to go away?” Peter's answer becomes the heart of the message: “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.” This is where faith matures — when we realize there's no plan B. True disciples endure, even when teachings are hard or seasons difficult. “Life changes when you come to the place where there's nowhere else to go but Jesus.” 4. The Example of Josiah — All or Nothing Pastor drew from King Josiah (2 Kings 22) as an example of wholehearted devotion: At 18, Josiah heard the Word of God and led a complete national cleansing, destroying idols both inside and outside Jerusalem. Most kings “cleaned up what people could see,” but Josiah went deeper — cleansing what others couldn't see. Application: “Are you just cleaning up what others can see, or letting the Holy Spirit clean you inside and out?” 5. The Resurrection of Lazarus (John 11) The story of Lazarus revealed Jesus' power over death and His identity as the Resurrection and the Life. Martha showed faith — “If you had been here, my brother would not have died” — but still thought in natural terms. Jesus lifted her perspective: “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he die, yet shall he live.” The resurrection is not a concept — it is a person. Because Jesus lives, believers will live also. “If He came out of the grave, I'm walking out too!” 6. Jesus Among False Comparisons The world still tries to place Jesus on the same level as other religious leaders — Buddha, Muhammad, Confucius. But that cannot stand logically or spiritually: If Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me,” then He is either Lord, liar, or lunatic — but not merely “a good teacher.” To be good, one must tell the truth; to be wise, one must be right. Therefore, if Jesus is both good and wise, His exclusive claims must be true. 7. The Evidence of His Resurrection Pastor listed historical and scriptural proofs of Jesus' resurrection: He lived — more evidence of His life than any other person in history. He was crucified — both Jews and Romans confirm it. He died — verified by witnesses. He was buried — in a borrowed tomb. He rose again — testified by angels, disciples, and even Roman guards. The tomb was empty — no opposing claim refuted that fact. The disciples died for this truth — scattered across the world, they suffered and were martyred, none recanting the resurrection. “Men will not die for what they know is a lie. But they died for what they saw.” 8. Application: Knowing Christ Above All From Philippians 3, Paul's words mirror Peter's confession: “What things were gain to me, I count as loss for Christ… that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection.” Religious credentials, education, and achievements mean nothing without Christ. Only one thing matters when we cross the finish line — being clothed in the righteousness of Christ. The Christian's journey is about transformation — being both clothed with and filled by righteousness. 9. Pressing Toward the Mark Paul's instruction: “Forgetting what is behind and reaching forward to what is ahead, I press toward the prize.” Forgetting doesn't only mean bad memories — sometimes it's laying down our own plans or dreams to know Him more fully. Pastor challenged believers: “Are you just wanting Christ to help you when you're in a jam, or do you want Him to own you — all of you?” The task may change in life, but the call never changes — the call is to know Him. 10. Closing Call and Prayer Life's tasks come and go — but the call to know Christ remains constant. God may place us in different seasons or struggles to draw us closer. Some believers stay in the wilderness longer because they resist His process. Final prayer: “Lord, bring us to that place where, like Peter, we realize — we have nowhere else to go but You.” Key Takeaways Jesus is not a way — He is the only way. Faith must move from the natural to the spiritual. True disciples endure — even when others walk away. The resurrection is the foundation of our hope. Our greatest calling is not ministry, but intimacy: to know Him.

Filling all things… Journey to Reality Chapter Five: Sacramental Thinking St John 14: 1-7.  Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. St. Basil the Great (On the Holy Spirit).  We understand the “way” to be the road to perfection, advancing in order step by step through the words of righteousness and the illumination of knowledge, always yearning for that which lies ahead and straining toward the last mile, until we reach that blessed end, the knowledge of God, with which the Lord blesses those who believe in him. For truly our Lord is a good way, a straight road with no confusing forks or turns, leading us directly to the Father. For “no one comes to the Father,” he says, “except through me.” Such is our way up to God through his Son. ON THE HOLY SPIRIT 8.18.  “Modern, westernized people tend to think about the world from the starting point of physicality.  The physical world, as we would say, is the primary reality… It is the objective, measurable world on which we can all agree.”  Page 50 of 142. The assumption of materialists is that if a thing cannot be measured, then it is unprovable, a matter of opinion, AND of lesser importance. The natural world is everyone's baseline.  Religious or spiritual people have an added category, that of the “supernatural,” but as long as we operate in the material paradigm, these are the things that BY DEFINITION cannot be measured and are thus kind of optional.  Belief then becomes a way to stand up and assert that there are some things that are important that cannot be measured directly.  “I believe…” is our assertion that there is a supernatural reality and that it is well-ordered and that there are supernatural outcomes that should matter to us: ·      Forgiveness of sins ·      Sacramental marriage (vs. an agreement or contract) ·      Eternal life When we talk about religion, it is often in materialist terms. ·      What good is it (for health, family, society)? ·      What does it cost in terms of time and money? ·      Does its system make sense?  E.g. Juridical vs. Therapeutic vs. Holistic Healing But this worldview can only take us so far.  It “misses the mark” when it comes to understanding the world and how it works. An irony:  the materialist world may allow us to see things objectively, but not truly.  I am playing with words here, but it points to the difficulty. Objectivity refers to the quality of being unbiased and fair, making decisions based solely on facts rather than personal feelings or beliefs. It is often considered essential in fields like science and journalism to ensure accurate and impartial reporting or analysis. Objects have attributes that can be measured.  As a social scientist, I was taught that we have a poor understanding of something if we cannot put a number to it and that if we took enough measurements, we could explain everything.  Omniscience – or godhood – then is a matter of having enough data and the computing power to run the numbers.  Omnipotence involves the ability to manipulate everything towards a desired outcome.  This is no longer just the stuff of science fiction.  This is another one of those areas where claims are being made for technology that should not be made.  We can rightly question double-predestination, but what will keep us from doing the same thing as we grow in material understanding and power? A step in the right direction is to recognize that there is a moral dimension to the world.  But the problem is that it cannot be measured.  Outcomes can be measured, but their values can only be asserted.  This is why both secular philosophers like Nichze and religious ones like C.S. Lewis and Fr. Seraphim Rose claim that this kind of worldview leads to nihilism and the assertion of will.  Religious and spiritual people who believe in the supernatural will then say that God (or spirit, or Arche) is the solution to this problem.  Again, this gets us heading in a good direction, but it usually keeps within the materialist worldview.  Again, which system makes sense, agrees with what I prefer, has the best agape meal, and so on. But it really is strange to come at God in this manner.  All we are doing is taking the “God of the Gaps” concept and applying to morality and value.  This is like looking at the world through a two-dimensional, black and white filter. We can do better.  Let's see how our ancestors did it. They did not see the natural and supernatural as separate.  It was just “the world.” Some things were visible and some things were invisible.  Just as we cannot see radiation, atoms, and gravity know them to be part of reality, so it was with our ancestors for the invisible things.  “This idea that the physical and the spiritual are not seperable has a few important implications.  If we say that the physical and the spiritual have to go together, then what we're really saying is that there is a spiritual quality to everything physical, and a physical quality to everything spiritual.  This means, among other things, that physical objects and actions can have intrinsic meaning.” (Page 53 of 142) The example of two bisecting lines.  A Cross.  There is a story behind it, and that gives it subjective meaning, but there is more to it.  The things that are described in that story create meaning.  The cross is part of something primal and real it has “cosmic significance” (ibid).  And this is true regardless of whether people recognize it as such (example of vampires). Another way of describing this older view is as “enchanted” (vs. disenchanted).  Another way is that we are part of a grand story.  Stories are excellent at conveying meaning.  This is why some stories are said to be true even though they are fiction.  This is complete nonsense to the materialist mind. What about objectivity?  Isn't this view biased?  Isn't it subjective? It certainly is biased.  But it is only subjective because our perception of the world is incomplete and often wrong, and we really do assert our wills to create and share meaning.  We have to go beyond thinking about things primarily as either objective – meaning things that can be measured, or subjective – meaning things that cannot.  A refresher on objective vs. subjective: Pizza. ·      Objectively, it has bread, sauce, and topics of a certain type and consistency and spices that affect the olfactory system in certain measurable ways.  This is seen as what the pizza IS. ·      Subjectively, we prefer certain kinds of bread, sauce, topics, and spices.  This is our opinion about the pizza.  ·      We can argue about what belongs on a pizza or how it should be prepared, but it's easy to come to an agreement on what the pizza actually is.  The problem with this kind of a dichotomy is that it turns value and meaning into a matter of opinion and not only does that lead to disaster – it doesn't describe the way the world really is. Why disaster? Disagreeing about pizza can lead to arguments and bringing home a pizza one person sees as valuable and another doesn't may lead to temper tantrums; but what if the thing being described is something like human life or someone else's freedom?  Why is it wrong? Because everything has intrinsic value.  And this is because it has being through it's connection to the source of value – the Arche.' Personal Knowledge Another step in getting us to where we need to go is to look at knowledge that is gained personally, from the inside.  But even in relationships, we miss the mark.  Vices and virtues affect how well we can know things and people.  An angry person is going to notice – and even create – things in people and their behaviors that stoke their anger.  Humility allows the person to be open to the truth.  Vice clouds our vision. “The practice of virtue is, therefore, an essential element in seeking knowledge and the ultimate truth of things.  Why?  Because reality is participatory.  Or, to put it more simply, if you're a bad person, you're also going to be a bad friend.  If you're jealous, resentful, petty, or arrogant, your going to have a hard time building a relationship with anyone to the extent that those impulses control your life.  To have better relationships, you have to be a better person.  And if Truth itself is a Person, you're only going to be able to know Truth to the extent that you're able to have a relationship with Him.” (Page 61 of 142) In summary: the physical and spiritual world are inseparable.  This gives everything meaning.  We learn that meaning through participation; this involves both intellectual and moral growth.  How can this work?  Tune in next week! Some questions:  ·      How is personal knowledge more than just data? ·      How do we keep from pretending our subjective opinions are illumined? ·      How does anyone know how clean their mirror is or how true their sight is?                    

Episode Summary:In this episode of the Faith with Friends podcast, host Lisa Lorenzo dives deep into the profound subject of worship, exploring its meaning beyond just the songs sung during a Sunday service. The episode eloquently delves into the reason why Christians worship, focusing on the idea that Jesus is worthy of all our praise. Worship is depicted as an act that extends into eternity and is an expression of gratitude and surrender to God.The discussion enhances understanding of worship by underscoring the notion that acceptable worship goes beyond hollow rituals and becomes a living sacrifice. Lisa highlights key biblical references, like Romans 12:1 and Revelations 5:12, which serve as foundational texts for understanding worship in a biblical context. The episode also emphasizes how worship can transform individuals by breaking down pride and making them more receptive to God's voice. Lisa provides listeners with a clear, heartfelt call to let worship become a life-altering act of surrender that fosters a deeper relationship with God.Key Takeaways:Worship is about recognizing Jesus as worthy, extending far beyond just musical performances to become a profound act of surrender and gratitude.Acceptable worship involves offering ourselves as living sacrifices, surrendering our whole selves to God, including our bodies, minds, hearts, and wills.True worship enhances personal transformation, helping to diminish pride and making individuals more receptive to divine guidance.Religious texts such as Romans 12:1, Revelations 5:12, and Colossians 1:16 provide critical insights into the essence and purpose of worship.Worship should form the core of daily life, offering transformative power when approached as a sincere, relational practice rather than mere ritual.Notable Quotes:"Worship is truly about worth, and Jesus is worthy.""Acceptable worship is not about perfection. It is about surrender.""The cross, it proves his love. The resurrection, it proves his power, and heaven proves his worth.""Worship helps us tune out the noise of the world and tune in the spirit of God.""Before you step into this new week, let worship be more than a song. Let it be your surrender."Resources:Follow Faith with Friends on Instagram: faithwithfriendsTune in to the full episode for an

For this 3 part bonus mini series, hosts Jennifer Thomas and Patrick Mason engage in a thoughtful conversation with Paul Lambert from the Wheatley Institute. Together, they explore the complex emotions and tensions that members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints may experience when feeling attacked or judged. The discussion highlights three common responses: retreating inward, trying to correct misunderstandings, and defending one's beliefs. Paul offers insights on how grounding oneself in the teachings of Jesus Christ can lead to unexpected, outward-focused actions that promote peace and understanding. [00:00:26] Religious pluralism in society.[00:06:01] The importance of religion.[00:07:34] Peacemakers in a divided world.[00:10:54] Public benefits of living faith.[00:15:25] Principles for harmony and respect.[00:17:02] Living faith publicly on social media.[00:20:12] Christ's example of invited discourse.[00:26:58] Faith and compassion in relationship.[00:27:40] Building non-contentious settings.[00:32:38] Spiritual identity over political identity.[00:35:17] Interfaith work's significance.[00:39:17] Faith as the first principle.[00:42:44] Interfaith engagement for flourishing society.[00:45:41] Peace through communion with God.For full show notes and transcript, visit https://www.mormonwomenforethicalgovernment.org/proclaim-peaceTo register for Repair, happening Oct 23 - 25th, 2025 in Provo, UT, go to https://waymakers.substack.com
