Elder Bednar & Ryan Smith Discuss The Truth Behind the Church’s $100 Billion + Fund
---
People often ask: Why does the Church have so much money? It’s a fair question.
And for the first time, Elder David A. Bednar sat down with a billionaire, Ryan Smith, at the Silicon Slopes Conference and answered it clearly. Not with spin. Not with soundbites. But with principle.
This isn't about stockpiling wealth. It’s about spiritual preparation.
I explore the Church’s real financial stewardship, what it funds, why reserves exist, and how prophetic foresight echoes the story of Joseph in Egypt. Because this isn’t just about Church finances. It’s about trust.
And the kind of people God is preparing us to become.
