Episode Description
Media portrayals of religion tend toward sensationalism, leaving the true stories of faith and fulfillment among religious women frequently overlooked. Jenet Jacob Erickson from Wheatley Institute and Brigham Young University shares how the recent research challenges popular stereotypes, revealing a striking correlation between religious devotion and personal well-being, particularly among women in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
