| dc.description.abstract | Oral history interview with Joshua and Alyssa Smith conducted by Chhaya Kolavalli in Kansas City, Kansas, on June 30, 2014. Joshua and Alyssa Smith, a couple living in Kansas City, Kansas, discuss their long histories with Christian intentional community. Both graduate students in theology, Joshua and Alyssa briefly lived in a loosely-organized intentional community in Liberty, Missouri. While they attempted to establish an intentional community in Kansas City—Anavah House—they do not currently have enough support to actualize the community. Joshua and Alyssa discuss what attracts them to the idea of Christian intentional living and the difficulties they experienced while trying to establish a community of their own. This interview was conducted for the Religion in Kansas Project as part of a summer fieldwork internship funded by the Friends of the Department of Religious Studies. | en_US |
