What does faithfulness look like when life doesn’t go according to plan?
In this episode, Skyler Sorensen—a father, content creator, and producer at Scripture Central—shares his journey through same-sex attraction, marriage, and the heartbreaking loss of his son, Milo.
He explains why same-sex attraction wasn’t his greatest trial, how (besides his Savior) his temple marriage became his greatest strength, and how grief brought unexpected clarity to his faith.
This conversation explores what it truly means to stay on the covenant path when life becomes complex, and why the gospel can be profoundly simple amidst loss.
In This Episode:
• Why Skyler believes faith is still worth choosing
• How grief can deepen, not destroy, testimony
• Why ideals matter even when we fall short
• What the balance of grace and truth looks like in real life
• How marriage and family can be both messy and divine
