Episode 9.
Shane's path in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (often called LDS or the Mormon Church) has had its share of change.  After his troubled teenage years, he got straightened out, grew during his Mission experience.  Family changes have prompted some adjustments in his beliefs and experience.  Despite the challenges, he remains committed to his Christian faith and the church's values, while honoring the complexities in his family, including opening his heart to the LGBTQ community.  Faith and family are supports for him, and he feels blessed to be a therapist providing family counseling, where he helps to strengthen loving relationships.

The Living Our Beliefs podcast is part of the Talking with God Project. 


Hosted by Meli Solomon of the Talking with God Project, Living Our Beliefs: Exploring Faith & Religion in Daily Life is a conversation about the practical realities of spiritual life. This podcast moves beyond abstract theology to examine how ancient traditions from Judaism, Islam, and other spiritual paths actually inform our modern routines, decisions, and relationships. Each episode delves into the nuanced spaces where belief meets action, exploring the challenges and rewards of aligning deeply held values with everyday behavior. You'll hear from a variety of voices discussing how they navigate this integration, whether through ritual, ethical choices, or community engagement. The discussions are grounded in real-life experience, focusing on the tangible ways faith provides meaning, fosters connection, and shapes identity in a contemporary context. Rather than offering simple answers, this series invites reflection on the ongoing, personal work of weaving spiritual principles into the fabric of daily existence. It’s for anyone curious about how others live out their convictions and seeking inspiration for their own journey toward a more coherent and purposeful life, all through thoughtful, accessible dialogue.
