Violence in our world is not new, and neither is the conversation about non-violence in Community of Christ! In the special episode of Coffee Buzz, host Apostle Robin Linkhart sits down with Prophet President Steve Veazey and Prophet President Designate Stassi Cramm for an in-depth conversation about the recently released draft statement on non-violence. The First Presidency hopes that there will be broad participation in the ongoing conversation so that the World Conference 2025 delegates may consider adopting a final statement representative of the diverse perspectives of a global church.
