I have come to learn for myself that the opposite of faith is not doubt, but rather the opposite of faith is certainty! Having doubt is to be fundamentally human & asking questions is the first step to finding answers and clarity. Let’s shed the shadow of shame cast on doubt and instead seek and find clarity that only comes with asking questions.

Episode 125: Seeing through a rainbow filter w/ Jill Mortensen
Jill Naylor Mortensen is a fierce and proud Mama Dragon. Throughout the past seven years, her journey of leaning in, listening, and learning to become a better LGBTQ+ advocate and ally has opened the door for numerous opportunities to serve alongside the local queer community. She has spent countless hours listening to, and believing, the stories of LGBTQ+ individuals and their families through her volunteer work with Encircle St. George, where she served as Advisory Board Chair.
A 2022 St. George Area Chamber of Commerce Element Award honoree, Jill is not afraid to bring awareness to the ongoing challenges many queer people face living in Southern Utah and is deeply committed to creating a community where everyone belongs. She strives to educate others through the power of story by openly sharing her family’s journey of fully embracing and celebrating their own queer child.
Jill is happiest lounging on the back patio of her home, listening to music and sipping a cold beverage with her husband of twenty one years, Marc. Together, they’re raising three children, one astonishingly resilient goldfish and a fluffy feline nicknamed “Kitty.”

Episode 124: Stages of Faith Part 1, SIMPLICITY
“Hypocrisy and self-deception proved to be far greater dangers than uncertainty.”
B. McLaren, Faith After Doubt, page 28
This resonated 1000% with me when I read it. One must be in congruence with their personal integrity. It will literally make you ill if you do not.
And so, leaning into one’s integrity, or one’s truth we go on with this journey of faith.
Brian McLaren's four stages of faith has been the answer to prayer for many sojourner's on the path of their personal faith journey's. He has broken this concept of faith development down into stages much like psychologists have broken down human development into stages. In fact that was his inspiration.

Episode 123: Every stage of faith is preceded by a doubt with Casey McFarland
Casey is a father of 4 kids and a full time photographer. He and his wife spend 1.5-2 months a year in Italy leading tours. In 2006 my faith started crumbling. By 2016 I essentially had lost all faith in the Latter Day Saint tradition. I had an experience that year that helped me realize that not only did I not want to throw away my heritage, I couldn’t. I began trying to understand paradox and eventually created an account on Instagram called @pioneeringparadox. It’s largely an expressive outlet for me to make sense of it all. I currently am attending the Living School led by Richard Rohr and Brian McLaren.

Episode 122: GRAFTED
"Pruning, digging, getting out the decay then grafting in the new is future focussed. It is creation focussed. It is restoration focussed. It acknowledges that creation and restoring is an ongoing process. There is no point of arrival. It is progressive." Meagan Skidmore BTSOD ep122.

Episode 121: I didn't make room for doubts; they made their own room, w/ Sara Fisk

Her big dreams include learning to sail and to sing and dance like JLo and helping thousands of women create the big, juicy lives they want to be living. She is a wife and mom of 5 and she enjoys those roles most of the time. Connect with Sara here:
