Beautifully Powerful

As I started my journey out of the closet and trying to find my way through this life, I came across this podcast. Though I am in a much different place in life than I was when I first started listening to Human Stories I am continually touched by Jill’s kindness and love. I am so appreciative that the space has been created to share these incredibly important stories.

This podcast helped me a gay man find the faith in Christ that I lost when I was cast aside by those who I once called friends. It gave me hope. Hope for my future.

This is a must listen to podcast for anyone who strives to understand a perspective that is outside main stream of Mormonism. You will gain greater understanding, empathy, and love for the human race.

This podcast is for everyone.

After listening to many of Jill’s podcasts I have learned a great deal about our human family. I feel strongly that what we don’t understand we often fear. Fear is usually a knee-jerk reaction that we are somehow being threatened. Putting aside assumption, fear and superstition is crucial for our human family to learn how to not only survive together, but to also learn how to love each other. Jill is a great facilitator to help us hear and understand each other’s unique human perspectives. I hope everyone listens to these stories!

The type of show I want to exist

It’s so much work putting out this type of quality and the sincerity is much needed these days. Love the show.
