In this deeply moving episode of The Clarity Podcast, we sit down with Sarah Perry as she bravely shares her journey of overcoming ecclesiastical abuse and finding healing beyond the confines of organized religion.

Sarah's story is one of resilience and faith. Growing up in South Carolina, she faced abuse at home despite her family's active participation in the LDS church. However, it was her battle with a mysterious illness that truly tested her faith. Despite seeking help from church leaders, Sarah was met with skepticism and disbelief, culminating in a refusal to grant her a temple recommend because of her health issues.

In this candid conversation, Sarah opens up about the pain of betrayal and the struggle to reconcile her faith with the actions of those in authority. She shares how leaving the church led her to reevaluate her beliefs, realizing that polygamy is not of God and that staying in an organization shouldn't mean enduring ongoing abuse.

Through her journey, Sarah found healing and a deeper connection with Jesus. Join us as we explore Sarah's inspiring story of resilience, courage, and the power of faith to overcome adversity.
