Why The Kirtland Temple Purchase Is So Significant - Jasmin Rappleye | 31

For All The Saints With Ben Hancock

Today's For All The Saints podcast is all about the Church's Kirtland Temple takeover!
You may recognise Jasmin Rappleye as the face of Scripture Plus, creating short-form videos of amazing insights and decoding hot topics and current affairs of her faith. She was instrumental in creating the Scripture Plus study app and has worked at Scripture Central since its beginning. She studied Ancient Near Eastern Studies at BYU and regularly researches Latter-day Saint Temples and women’s roles in the Gospel.
I wanted to talk to Jasmin today specifically about the significant Kirkland Temple deal between the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and Community of Christ.
Some highlights include what was in the agreement, why, as a British member, I should care about the Kirtland era, and reflecting on the role of Relief Society in the early Church.
