I’ve had moments, even months, of warm clarity of vision. But then I have receded again into my natural state, bondage to some vision of my own power and priority. My wife and then my children, in company with others who have loved me, have slowly made me more open and tender—even loving.

Author’s note: When the All In podcast launched in October 2018, I was immediately drawn to it. I had worked with Morgan Jones previously and was excited about the work she was doing at LDS Living.

I hope this piece gives readers new insight into the story of the All In podcast.
