Community of Christ historian John Hamer discusses a largely forgotten chapter of Mormon history: the temple built by Lyman Wight's group in Texas after they split from Brigham Young's migration to Utah.

In an episode of the Gospel Tangents podcast, Hamer explores how Wight's faction carried temple practices from Nauvoo to Texas and constructed their own temple building, demonstrating how different groups interpreted Joseph Smith's temple theology after his death.

The video has drawn modest viewership on a channel focused on Mormon history and schismatic movements within the broader Latter-day Saint tradition.
