UGP 121 - Losing Fear and Finding Faith Amidst Polygamy - Brenda LeBaron

TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE

Brenda was raised without a lot of religious training from either her Catholic mother or her Fundamentalist Mormon father. She grew up going back and forth between the United States and Mexico and her father's fundamentalist, polygamist colony. The family eventually settled in the LeBaron colony to be closer to her father's family. Brenda lived in fear of never measuring up until she heard the gospel of grace that put her on a path of freedom and healing. Now she's been called back to minister in the polygamist colony where she was raised.  Her story is full of hope for anyone hurting and afraid you'll never measure up.

  • The Lord is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34)
