This podcast was broadcast 11/7/2020. Following are the original show notes. Jared Halverson has been an institute teacher at the University of Utah for six years. He hails originally from Los Angeles. His YouTube channel/podcast, “Unshaken,” helps people study the scriptures. He is a former resident of Tennessee where he studied in the Divinity School at Vanderbilt University, where he is now a PhD candidate in Historical Studies with a focus on American religious history. While attending Vanderbilt, Jared sometimes was called upon to speak to college classes or to non-LDS congregations in the Nashville community to explain his religious beliefs, especially during the Mitt Romney presidential run. He was an avid athlete in high school (football and track) and interacted with a broad spectrum of religions among his boyhood friends, and served a Spanish-speaking mission.
