Having an honest relationship with God is a delicate balance of faith and doubt. There have been too many things in life that don't add up, don't line up and don't make sense. If God is God, then he must be able to handle tough questions and fierce argument. Countless times I've struggled with life and God, oftentimes arguing for hours, and sometimes just giving up. And it goes on ... We need to be ourselves with God and not something we we're supposed to be. What if God put on a "face" so as to hide his true character? Would that be honest? Is that what we want? Well, it certainly wouldn't be God. He called me for truth and intimacy with him, not a role, not a title - just a Father and his son. Questions. Struggles. Waiting. After so many, many years studying the Bible, following Jesus and just living this difficult existence ... I thought to write these things down. Do they matter? I don't know. But here they are, for what it's worth.
Autorenporträt
Chris Davis was a life-long devout Mormon, who checked all the expected boxes of wife, mother, teacher, leader, follower, and believer until 2020 when she left her family and her church to fulfill her own personal destiny as a gay woman and independent thinker. She remains close with her two adult children, one of whom is a believing member of the church and the other who is a transgender man that has also left the church.Chris's other works include contributing an essay about her experience of being queer in the LDS church in an anthology called I Spoke to You with Silence, published in 2022 by the University of Utah Press. She lives quite happily in her home state of Maine. You can connect with Chris and explore other podcasts and public appearances on her website: ChrisDavisProud.com.
