39: 7 Ways to Support Our Friends from Different Faith Traditions

from Dear Annie Joy · host Annie Joy

Today I am sharing powerful stories of interfaith kindness, including the recent passing of President Russell M. Nelson and how people outside my faith offered love and support in deeply meaningful ways. I'm unpacking why spiritual empathy matters, telling a moving story about a Muslim leader’s friendship with President Nelson, and offering 7 practical, soul-honoring ways to support friends of other faiths, even the ones that have left your faith tradition. Whether you're actively religious, deconstructing, or somewhere in between, this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to agree to care and you don’t have to understand to love deeply. Key themes: – Spiritual empathy – Interfaith compassion – Faith transitions – Emotional safety – Supporting loved ones without pressure ✨ “Love doesn’t ask us to be right—it asks us to be kind.” — Mentioned: • Story of President Nelson and the Muslim leader • Fireside with Sister Eubank • Michigan LDS chapel shooting • Interview with Jesse Ellis (Episode #38_) 📩 Share this episode with someone you care about. And if it touched your heart, leave a review so more women can find their way home to joy.
