We are here to help you feel less alone and strengthened in your journey to keep the faith. Join us for courageous conversations about the intersection of faith, politics, and social issues, with the hope of bringing church members all over the faith spectrum together in a spirit of love and understanding.

Episode 186 - An Interview with McArthur Krishna on the Love of our Mother in Heaven
Join Allyson this week as she interviews McArthur Krishna, author of the best selling Girls Who Choose God series and co-author of A Girl’s Guide to Heavenly Mother and A Boy’s Guide to Heavenly Mother. Among other publications, she is also co-author of the newly released volume 2 of the Cherish Series, titled “The Love of Our Mother in Heaven.”
With Mother’s Day right around the corner (and the many complicated feelings that often come with this Hallmark holiday), this timely episode is a good reminder of the most fundamental, universal, and beautiful relationship each of us can have with our Heavenly Mother and why it’s important to both talk about and seek Her. -

Customer Reviews
A space to talk about what we really think
I love that Allyson and Tiffany talk about religion and social issue and politics because they are all intertwined. I love that they shine a spotlight on other amazing women. This podcast helps keep me sane because it reminds me I am not alone in my struggles and visions for what could be with all of these areas. I love their humor and humanity. If RS was like this more would attend and we would all benefit from the conversations had.
They Feel Like Friends
I feel like I’m listening to 2 good friends who share the same struggles both in and out of the church setting. It’s an enjoyable hour, thought provoking, validity inducing, and learning opportunity. I’m so glad Tiffany and Allyson put so much time and effort into creating this safe space for us women to unite in. 🩵
Love the new format
I love this podcast and I love the new format. The short segments are easy to pause and pick back up with when I’m listening during a busy day. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and uplifting women in the church.
