630 | Open Topics | Meet Julie Smith | Re-Post

This is the second in a series of four Project Zion Episodes honoring the memory of Wally B. Smith.  This episode originally aired on September 4, 2019.  Most members of Community of Christ are familiar with W. Wallace Smith and his son Wallace B Smith, who served as Presidents of Community of Christ, but we don’t always get to hear from church leaders’ families. Today we’ve invited Julie Smith, daughter of Wallace B., to share some of her experiences growing up in the church with her grandpa and dad in church leadership. Julie shares her reflections on watching her dad become President of the church as well as her thoughts on the revelation her dad is best known for: Section 156 of the Doctrine and Covenants that provided for the ordination of women and the building of the Temple. Download TranscriptThanks for listening to Faith Unfiltered!Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!Intro and Outro music used with permission: “For Everyone Born,” Community of Christ Sings #285.
