192: Trevon Cutler | From Devotion to Desperation

192: Trevon Cutler | From Devotion to Desperation

Trevon Cutler chose the Church for himself as a teenager and gave it everything—priesthood, leadership, a mission, and years of trying to become the person he believed he was supposed to be. But underneath it all, he was quietly fighting the truth about being gay, hoping faith and obedience would somehow change it.

They didn't. The pressure built into anxiety, depression, and a mental health crisis that pushed him further than he ever expected to go.

When Trevon finally came out, it wasn't a single moment—it was a risk. One message to a friend. One message to his mom. And instead of losing everything, he found the support that helped pull him through one of the darkest nights of his life.

This conversation is honest about what it costs to hide, what it takes to face yourself, and how life can begin to open up on the other side of that truth—even while the struggle is still real.
