1726: Mormon Convert Leaves Church - Liz Lambson Pt. 4

1726: Mormon Convert Leaves Church - Liz Lambson Pt. 4

YouTube Link: https://youtu.be/nEW7ZshLBcU

Cracks start to form in the testimony and identities of both Liz and her husband Sam. Sam begins to question the narratives he was raised with after a trip to Palmyra and as his degree opens his eyes to the cold, corporate nature of the Church, while Liz struggles to keep her faith despite the growing number of things that feel so wrong and cause so much harm not just to Liz, but her marriage, children, extended family, community, and even the nation at large. Liz recognizes how much of herself she continually denied and gave up trying to belong and finally realizes that she no longer WANTS to belong to an organization at such odds with her nature and values.
