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.

And I'm happy to have my good friend and colleague Brandon Patrick back here with me today. Hey,

Brennan. Hey, Valerie. It's good to be here. Yeah. It's good to be here with you. And as promised, we are back with another episode talking about the doctrine of marriage and really infusing some of our on the ground,

on the front lines, experience as psychologists on what really is healthy and helpful

and healthy and helpful and healthy, healthy and

helpful ways to think about the doctrine of marriage and sometimes how there are some

unintended consequences to our current doctrine around the relationship of marriage.

Okay.

So today we are going to jump into two new, what Brandon and I consider to be

problematic doctrines. And then we're going to talk about some psychologically more sound

principles that might help couples sort of find their way and become more healed and more whole in and around the Church of Jesus Christ
