129: Keindrick Willis | My Personal, Mental and Spiritual Tug-of-War

A convert to the Church from Alabama, Keindrick did everything exactly "Mormon". While serving a mission to New York he also identified his sexuality.

This story is Keindrick's journey coming out, attending BYU, dealing with bigotry and finding joy in his journey.

"The pain of living closeted was greater than the pain of coming out."

Keindrick shares his advice to members and Church leaders, and gives insight into his (multiple) experiences being turned into the BYU honor code office.
