This double episode features the stories of Sofia from Mexico and Mary-Anne from Botswana, whose lives changed in big but practical ways when they joined the church — gaining literacy and other skills which enabled them to carve out new opportunities. Melissa Inouye joins Caroline in a discussion about social mobility and practical skill acquisition upon global members’ conversions to the church. Melissa works in the Church History Department of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
