Kelsey joined the Deseret News in 2014, bringing a master’s degree in religion at Yale Divinity School. She is an award-winning journalist who has covered religion across the nation and world. She is gifted at wading through the complexities of religious liberty and its place in the public square. She breaks down issues tied to religious and LGBTQ rights, adding vital context and understanding to how civil society and religion are connected or perhaps disconnected. She applies the lens of faith to such disparate topics as national elections, terrorist attacks and sports championships. Some of her recent headlines will show you the kinds of stories and analysis she’ll deliver to you each week. - [What Republicans and Democrats get wrong about religious freedom]( - [Latter-day Saint leaders call for ‘fairness for all’ while opposing the Equality Act]( - [What you need to know about the pope’s new guidance on clergy sexual abuse]( - [Can America’s religious freedom ambassador save the world?]( - [How LGBTQ rights and religious freedom debates are polarizing our understanding of discrimination — and why it matters]( People of all faith backgrounds, or of no faith background, will gain a better understanding of how religion and public policy are shaping the world in which we live. Kelsey’s thorough reporting, fair-minded questioning and strong storytelling is indispensable to understanding these complex and often sensitive issues.
