As a young, queer Christian, Sophia Hiatt is still discerning God's call. Though she wasn’t part of a church community when she was young, Sophia listened to her mother’s bible stories and lessons about spirituality. When she was a teenager, her family joined a United Methodist church and she got involved in the youth group and music ministry. She continued to grow in her faith as she came out as bisexual and queer. Sophia is now a religious studies major at North Central College.
