Description

Sister Kristen M. Oaks is the wife of President Dallin H. Oaks, recently set-apart President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Her life has been a record of shifting roles and accepted opportunities to serve as a wife, member of the Church and daughter of God. She joins this episode of the Church News podcast to speak again with guest host Sheri Dew, executive vice president of the Deseret Management Corp. and a former member of the Relief Society general presidency.


Sister Oaks gives some of her insights into President Oaks; the mantle of prophet; his role as a husband, father and friend; their ministering assignments around the world; and her testimony of the temple and of the Savior, Jesus Christ.
