Episode 748: Nate Miller, Gay, Age 26 Listen, Learn & Love Hosted by Richard Ostler
-
- Religion & Spirituality
My friend Nate Miller (grew up in Davis County, lives in Salt Lake County, Philippines RM, U of U graduation, no longer attending church) joins us to share his story. Nate starts with reading a powerful journal entry/letter during his mission that shares his journey (since age 6) of navigating being different and eventually realizing he is gay.
Nate is so vulnerable, honest—with a gift of words to share his journey. I was so moved with Nate’s courage to be so honest—which helps us better understand what it is like to be alone figuring out one’s sexual orientation—and gives us insights what we can do to improve our culture to better support our queer friends.
Nate talks about finding hope about his future and his family’s unconditional love and support. Nate also talks about advice he would give to his younger self “who was listening five years ago”.
Like many of our episodes, I continue to be moved by brave people willing to share their stories out of love to help others find hope in their lives. I was also moved by Nate’s family and their words of unconditional love and support—this is a beautiful family love story.
This is also a good podcast on principles to keep the family circle together and strong when a family member steps away from the church.
Thank you, Nate, for your courage to be on the podcast. You are a good man—your story will help so many. You have a great life ahead of you. All my love and respect to you and the Miller family.
