In this conversation, Clare and Chris Thomas share their unique journey of navigating faith and marriage. Chris recounts his upbringing in a Southern Baptist environment and his initial distance from the LDS faith.

Chris was raised by an anti LDS father and developed the same rhetoric in his adulthood. As their relationship developed, they faced challenges related to differing beliefs, especially after Clare returned to her faith following a personal tragedy.

Chris's eventual spiritual awakening and decision to join the church marked a significant turning point in their family life. They discuss the importance of community support, patience, and sacrifice in maintaining their marriage and raising their children in a loving environment despite their differing faith backgrounds.
