Hi, Latter Day struggles, friends and fans.

We know that navigating a faith crisis can feel overwhelming, especially when it impacts our closest relationships, our parents, our partners, and our kids.

That's why Valerie has created two online self-paced classes to help.

The first is a couple's guide to faith crisis and expansion.

This class is here for a partner

or couple who want to navigate faith shifts with mutual respect and deeper connection. Next is

a family's guide to mixed faith parenting. This class offers tools to help parents develop

greater harmony and understanding when belief differences arise within our families. Both classes are

packed with helpful tools and perspectives that can

give you hope and a way forward. So if you're looking for a little guidance on this,

visit laddarday struggles.com to learn more. And now let's start the show. Hey everybody, welcome to Latter Day Struggles.

This is Valerie and today I welcome a good friend of mine, someone who I am lucky enough to have come to know through one of my small groups.

Hello, T.J. How are you today? Hi, I'm doing great.

I got a little bit of a cold this week. So sorry everyone if you hear a little flam in me today,

but we're good to go. I am really grateful for TJ for a variety of reasons, one of which, of course,

is he is coming on today to talk about his own story as it relates to life inside of,

or as a member of here in and around the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as it pertains

to the somewhat complex doctrine of eternal marriage and family.

And really happy to have you here for that, TJ.

I have to also say as an aside i'm

also really grateful for him because he is a therapist and i love having therapists in my small

groups they bring such depth and breadth and self-awareness and anyways it's just really every time
