Episode 204: Community of Christ as a Peace Church with Robin Linkhart

Community of Christ has long claimed to be a peace church. From our earliest days in the restoration to today, we have worked to put action with that claim. Listen in as Robin Linkhart walks us through many of the ways we have worked for peace and where we have room to deepen our understanding and activism.
