This week Joe talks to his wife of 24 years, Tori. They talk about how they met, her role as the pastor's wife and how that created harm in her life and how she came to be open and affirming.
A lot of people will resonate with Tori's story in having to bite her tongue and not having a voice within the church. If you would like to connect with Tori or if you would like to be part of that zoom group, you can connect with her on INSTAGRAM or on TIK TOK.
