🎙️ Episode 9 — Kurt Francom: Leadership, Faith, and “Is God Disappointed in Me?”

In this powerful episode of Space for Faith, host Matt sits down with Kurt Francom, founder of Leading Saints, to explore the intersection of Latter-day Saint leadership, personal faith, and the mysteries of the cosmos.

Kurt shares the inspiring origin story of Leading Saints, a nonprofit organization and podcast that supports Latter-day Saint leaders worldwide. He opens up about his spiritual journey and the insights that led to his thought-provoking new book, Is God Disappointed in Me?, which challenges common misconceptions about God’s expectations and our worthiness.

Matt and Kurt also venture into unexpected terrain — discussing UAPs (unidentified anomalous phenomena), how curiosity fits into faith, and what Church leadership might look like in a rapidly changing world.

Whether you’re a church leader, a seeker of spiritual truth, or simply curious about the edges of belief, this conversation offers hope, depth, and actionable wisdom.
