2023 NORTH STAR ANNUAL CONFERENCE

BREAKOUT SESSION 5 | SATURDAY | 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM | DEER VALLEY

FINDING CHRIST AT THE CROSSROADS

The place where the covenant path and same-gender attraction intersect can be brutal. Facing this crossroads can feel like a faith crisis, an identity crisis, and an existential crisis, like being torn in two, an impossible choice, a breaking point, or a long, drawn-out spiritual plateau that never ends. In such distress, it can be difficult to navigate, to trust our decisions, or to move forward.

But these same crossroads can also become a sacred space, an access point to feel of Jesus Christ's infinite love and to tap into the powers of heaven. In this interactive session, I invite you to come explore, experience, and find Jesus Christ at the crossroads.

DEMOGRAPHIC: GENERAL

VAUGHN ARMSTRONG

Vaughn grew up playing the piano, swimming, hiking, and brainstorming in Arizona. Personal revelation helped him dedicate his life to the Gospel of Jesus Christ at a young age. After serving a mission in England, Vaughn graduated from the BYU film program, and he has worked in various aspects of media production ever since. (include falling down the 2002 Olympic slope, buying a donkey for a TV ad, and migrating old General Conferences to digital formats.) At BYU, Vaughn realized his attractions to men, and he is grateful for the tools, miracles, and support he has found along his journey. Now in Centerville, Utah, he enjoys game nights, serving in his ward, volunteering at men’s retreats, being an uncle, and creating and publishing party games.
