In this video, Sam, an ex-member of the FLDS Church, and Melissa, who grew up in the mainstream LDS Church, break down the "Word of Wisdom" as seen in the new hit TV show The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. We dive deep into the origins and significance of this health code, explaining its rules around coffee, tea, alcohol, and tobacco, and explore the cultural contradictions, like why soda is okay but coffee isn't. Sam and Melissa share their personal experiences with the "Word of Wisdom" from their unique perspectives, highlighting the challenges and hypocrisies they've seen in both fundamentalist and mainstream Mormon communities. Join us as we react to the show and shed light on what the "Word of Wisdom" really means for Mormons today!
