Welcome to another episode of Listen, Learn, and Love, hosted by Richard Osler.

I'd love to plug my book for a second.

I usually don't do commercial announcements, but since I've got a book coming out, and you

listeners are connected to this subject, it's called Listen, Learn, and Love, Embracing LGBTQ Latter-day Saints.

It's at Amazon.

It comes out in September.

The Kindle Version is available now at Amazon.

The Kindle Version right now is the number one new release and books in the LDS Church.

And I won't go through the content of the book, but it's really the same goal as the

podcast is to amplify voices of parents that have LGBTQ children that are often received

Latter-day Saints, their stories come through in the book. So please check out the book,

share it with others. It's just, it's supportive of the church, but it's also trying to really

understand LGBTQ members. One of the LGBTQ members in the book

is who is in my pot on the podcast today. Sam Skidmore, welcome to the podcast, Sam.

Thank you for having me back. Did I let you know you? We had a couple quotes from you that made it to the book.

episode 66 that was recorded in December of 2018. This will be episodes 300-something that's going

to come out probably early September, late August of 2020. So I like having returning guests to just update them, update you on their lives.

And let me just give you an overview of Sam.

Sam went to BYU, got a degree in psychology.

He served a mission in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, speaking Haitian and Creole.
