Her podcast, 132 Problems: Revisiting Mormon Polygamy, reached over 120,000 subscribers and three million views before being taken down in May 2025 due to ecclesiastical pressure.
Her article "Constructing Helen: Absences, Ambiguities, and Adjustments in the Historiography of Helen Mar Kimball," Journal of Mormon Polygamy (2026), won the Lucille T. Stoddard Outstanding Senior Thesis Award. She is also the co-author, with Cheryl Bruno, of “Crafting a Sacred Story: Joseph F.

Ken Jacobsen
Ken Jacobsen
Ken Jacobsen has been a member of the Religious Society of Friends, Quakers, for many years and served as administrator and teacher in various Quaker retreat centers and schools, and as a theology professor at Chicago Theological Seminary.
Ken practices the Quaker way of faith, which arose in 17th Century England, in which people gather together in silent worship, without a designated pastor or plan, to listen for what messages the Divine Spirit, the Living Christ, may bring, messages which may then be spoken aloud by anyone in the meeting who receives them.
Ken loves sharing the living faith he has learned among Friends with all people and all life. He lives near his local Quaker community in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, where he carries on his work as spiritual teacher, counselor and writer.
Hamid Jabbar
Hamid Jabbar
Hamid Jabbar was born at a crossroads: the child of a Jewish mother, daughter of Holocaust survivors who came to America as a refugee, and a Muslim father who emigrated from Iran. Raised in Texas within the Catholic Church, he eventually followed the deeper pull of his soul into a many years-long immersion in Buddhist tradition in Thailand, and later into the living cosmologies of the Amazon and the Andes. For the past decade he has also walked the Red Road, a tradition preserved by the Native peoples of the American Southwest near his home in Arizona. Today he serves as a sound educator and plant medicine facilitator, and his spiritual passion is simple: to honor every thread of the human family's wisdom as a living doorway to the Divine. Hamid’s work can be found at www.hamidjabbar.com.
