Today we are joined by Jeff Bennion. Jeff shares part of his journey as a Latter-Day Saint with Same-Sex Attraction and talks about an organization he co-founded called North Star International. The North Star website states that, "North Star is a faith-affirming resource for Latter-day Saints addressing sexual orientation and gender identity, and who desire to live in harmony with the teachings of Jesus Christ and the doctrines and values of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints." This week North Star is having a conference. On Thursday, June 10 at 6:30 PM they'll have an opening social that's free and open to anyone, following that on Friday and Saturday they'll have different things going on from 7:30 AM to around 5:00 PM, and then on Sunday, they'll have a testimony meeting. A few of the different speakers will include Nik Day, Michael Mclean, and Carol McConkie (former member of the Young Women general presidency). At the conference, they'll have different breakout sessions, some specific for youth, some for spouses, some for individuals with SSA, some for transgender individuals, and some church leaders.
