Erin Jones was a devout Christian for 35 years. She was a Youth Minister in the Assembly of God church for six years. Last year, she converted to Islam, upsetting her conservative, religious, pro-Trump parents. In her faith, she aligns with Reformist Muslims like Maajid Nawaz and Irshad Manji. Erin is also an autism blogger and mental health advocate with high-functioning autism. We talk to her about her journey and why she chose Reform Islam as her new spiritual path. This is one of the most moving episodes we've done. Check it out.
