Don’t miss an exciting invitation during the upcoming Salt Lake Sunstone Summer Symposium! This week, Colleen keeps you up to date on how Mormonism connects with the recent crisis of separated children at the US border. She welcomes Blaire Ostler, a bisexual active Mormon wife and mother who shares with us her reactions to Dan Reynolds and his recent interviews with Ellen, Trevor Noah, and his documentary Believer. She discusses allyship, the intricacies involved, and what she hopes for the future. Blaire is an absolute delight! Don’t miss Mason Proxy, a blogger who has created Mormon Astrological Signs that are hilarious and uniquely Mormon! Videos of these guests are available on Patreon.
