Wisdom Beyond the Word of Wisdom- w/ Jay Hymas (alcohol addiction recovery)

from Pioneering Paradox: A podcast for conflicted saints · host Casey McFarland

In a 2017 study, researchers Benjamin Knoll and Jana Riess asked members who had left the faith, ‘How old were you when you stopped identifying as a member of the LDS Church?’ The average answer? Twenty-one—the legal drinking age.Currently, in the U.S., about 62% of adults drink alcohol. Many do so responsibly, but according to Pew Research, over 10% of Americans age 12 and up struggle with alcohol use disorder.The reality is, many of our kids will step into a world where drinking is not just common—it’s often expected. So how do we talk about that without sounding churchy?Today, we’re bringing in a guest Jay Hymas from outside the church to share a different perspective and help us open up a real, informed conversation about alcohol and a few other substances—with their risks and realities, and how we can keep those conversations going, with love and honesty.”**
