590 | Cuppa Joe | Theo-History | The W Wallace Smith Era

The last place you might expect to experience a revolution is in the church, but we’ve heard tell that a religion without a theological revolution is a dead religion.  Does that hold true for the church? If so, we’re in good shape because revolutionaries have been a part of the church for a long time, and the W Wallace Smith era was no exception.  Listen in as host Karin Peter engages regular guests, Historian and current Apostle Lach Mackay and Theologian Tony Chavala-Smith for a fascinating look into some of the important events and theological shifts of the church during the tenure of Prophet President W Wallace Smith.
