Faithful Conversations

Jennifer is a lifelong member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. What is so unique is that her path and her experiences have been outside of the "normal," "expected" trajectory of a Latter-day Saint woman. Her story gives a fresh look on expectations, norms, and culture in and out of the Church. Sometimes she will say exactly what you would expect of a Latter-day Saint, and then at other times she is discussing her experience with women in Ethiopia during the Buna Ceremony! It was a pleasure to talk with her and explore her life, her faith, and her insights; it truly was a Faithful Conversation. 

This podcast is an interview I did with Dr. Jonathan Austad, a professor of humanities at Brigham Young University Idaho in the summer of 2017.  The discussion involves questions like: what is art? What is good art? What is the difference between art and pornography? Why is art important to one's life? How does the modern social media environment help or hinder one's appreciation and time for art?

This episode features Dr. Jason Hunt and discussed the effects of pornography on the brain. Youtube Presentation by Dr. Hunt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZQkHk2k9so
