Since the first days of Mother Eve, women have played an essential role in helping bring to pass God’s plan for His children. Many have asked, “Did Emma fall short?" This week, we talk with Jennifer Reeder, the author of the new biography, “First: The Life and Faith of Emma Smith," about why the answer to that question is no-Emma gave all that was asked of her.
She gave her all for the gospel of Jesus Christ but chose not to go west with the Saints. Her family was the most important thing to her, yet she suffered familial losses over and over again. Her love for her husband, the Prophet Joseph Smith, was enduring despite her struggles to understand his participation in polygamy. A thread of complexity is woven throughout the life of Emma Smith.
