Stories That Bind: Jane and Gordon Browning

In this heartfelt episode of the Star 3rd Ward Podcast, we sit down with Jane and Gordon Browning to explore the stories that have shaped their lives—and the quiet strength that binds them together.

From a chance meeting at church as teenagers in Central California to 65 years of marriage, raising eight children, and serving a mission at the Family History Center in Salt Lake, Jane and Gordon share a journey filled with faith, sacrifice, and enduring love. Gordon reflects on his pioneering work in fiber optics—helping lay the foundation for the internet—while Jane offers wisdom from the home front, holding the family together through decades of change.

Together, they reflect on the hand of the Lord in their lives, the promises of eternal covenants, and the joy of watching their posterity grow. This episode is a reminder that it’s not just the big moments that define us, but the stories we carry, the people we love, and the faith that binds it all.
