Listen "041:Benjamin Hunter Part 1: The Unexpected Spiritual Reformation"
Episode Synopsis
This week's discussion introduces our very special guest star, Benjamin Hunter!
Ben has an incredible CV, from making LDS church history by singing solo at General Conference, his starring roles in the British and Nauvoo Pageants, his private musical performances for Prophets and Apostles to name only a few highlights. We've wanted to catch up with Ben for a long time to ask him about the story behind his faith transition. How has becoming a husband and father changed his perspective on life as a latter-day saint, and how much of his experience of serving a mission in Europe has prompted his decision to resign his membership?
We invite you to join us for a funny, and painful and honest discussion about why so many young people are choosing to leave.
Content Warning: This episode feature frank discussions around sexual development and potentially damaging policies. We discuss ecclesiastical abuse and talk openly about mental health, suicidal ideation and self harm.
