Thomas McConkie, the host of Mindfulness+ on the KSL Newsradio app and website, grew up a devout Mormon. He shares his faith journey, and how mindfulness practice informed and transformed his beliefs. He describes how a childhood illness and a blessing from his grandfather put him on the path to spiritual growth in the LDS Church, even with a period of questioning and doubt in his teens. He wanted to know why members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints could be so imperfect - and looking for the answer to that question led him to learn more about adult development, meditation, and mindfulness.
