Its framing calls him 'a member of the Celestial Church of Christ'; the words it quotes from him speak of faith generically ('Faith is something you have to have in this life. You can't walk by sight; you have to walk by faith') and do not themselves state a church membership. One event-coverage family, August 2024.",
