Could we really be experiencing our own “Groundhog Day” in the church and in our current culture? Join host Karin Peter along with Apostle (and Historian) Lach Mackay and Theologian Tony Chvala-Smith as they explore the intersection of history and theology during the Presidency of Fred M. Smith. Hear how Fred M., grandson of Joseph Smith, Jr., served as “prophet of the one true church,” while being influenced by contemporary Protestant theology of the social gospel type.
