As an ally researcher with a graduate degree from Colombia University in psychology, and the person running the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion program for her company, Anne Katherine (who goes by Kate) gives us this invaluable conversation around inclusivity at the level of divinity. She shares "The Architect," a short story she wrote for @OurMotherInHeaven on Instagram. Her words inspire us to expand our vision of what godhood for God our Mother might look like. She urges us to find the divinity inside each one of Her children, reminding us that we're all part of the body of Christ... or the elephant in the room.  Kate is on Instagram as @kate.toronto. She has been interviewed for her LGBTQ research on the Lift + Love podcast, as well as on Listen, Learn, &amp; Love, episode 132. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/inherimage/support

Does staying in the church harm LGBTQ saints?

My friend Kate Toronto joins us to talk about stepping into the space of active LDS and understanding/supporting our LGBTQ friends when she felt impressed to do her thesis on this subject as part of earning a Master’s Degree in Psychology in Education from Columbia University in New York.   As part of her thesis, she conducted research with 450 LGBTQ Latter-day Saints (mix of active/not active).   She shares her findings, conclusions and pastoral implications for our LDS LGBTQ members.   Kate successfully defended her dissertation and graduates in late May 2019.    Kate has unique and fresh insights into the difficult road our LGBTQ friends walk and things we can do to minister to them and lighted their road.   I was deeply moved by Kate’s insights and her good heart and have more hope that we are moving in the right direction to both lift the burdens of our LGBTQ members and embrace their contributions to help us become the Body of Christ.
