For the first time in history, a woman has been elected to serve as the Senior President of Seventy in Community of Christ.  With the exception of an admitted brief period of rebelliousness, God has been central to Karin Peter’s life. Starting as a small child quietly absorbing all that she could through books and old men’s conversations of church and faith, a seed was planted in Karin that has continued to grow in her … always searching for ways to help others find what they need to “bring forth spiritual renewal, and wholeness, and justice, and peace.” Join host Robin Linkhart for this very captivating conversation with Karin in which she shares about her journey to this historic moment.
