Hi, everyone. Dr. Jennifer here. So often when we confront conflict, pain, and struggle in our marriages,

we feel like something is going wrong. And yet, in my work as a marriage therapist and coach,

I understand these as moments of collision that pressure our growth if we will let them. My new book

that we might have joy looks at the ways that we have

often misunderstood our theology and created a more problematic relationship to our sexuality

and to marital intimacy. And this book is my attempt to help Latter-day Saints understand the richness

of our theology, how we can understand the

pressures and struggles of marriage to be an invitation into our growth, to become more

capable of intimacy, and more capable of love. So if you click on the link in the show notes,

you can find a purchase link for this new book that we might have joy. Thanks,

everyone.

book, Doing Small Things with

Great Love, How Everyday Humanitarians Are Changing the World. Sharon has spent decades

in humanitarian work around the globe and now works as the director of Latter-day Saint Charities.

In this conversation, she shares what her experience has taught her about ethical, lasting,
