Today we are joined with Rebecca Bibliotheca and Landon Brophy (both of Mormonish Podcast) to discuss the breaking news over the proposed Mormon temple in Fairview, Texas. Those of the town council and the residents who oppose the temple only do so because the proposed building is too large. Because the town council voted against the building, they are awaiting the lawsuit from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
