Deniese DavisGUEST
So a couple of years ago, and once again, we weren't watching the Housewives franchise when it first aired.

Deniese DavisGUEST
But Cheyenne Roundtree, who's an incredible journalist, who's also featured in our docuseries, released an article with the Daily Beast.

Deniese DavisGUEST
That was to many the first, I think, set of allegations around Mary Cosby and this cult thing.

Deniese DavisGUEST
So the church, uh, Faith Temple, was initially started, um, in the 1960s with Rosemary Cosby coming from Indianapolis to Salt Lake City, and really actually started to build, uh, this place of worship, uh, through the, uh, religion of Pentecostalism in her own living room.

Deniese DavisGUEST
And over time, as the congregation grew, she began to, um, they began to be able to purchase land.

Deniese DavisGUEST
And they had an original church, um, that is not where the one that is currently standing, and they, they moved into that building in around the 1970s.

Deniese DavisGUEST
But as you see in episode two, when we peel, um, you know, the timeline back and, and go back to that time, there's so much, like, rich archival footage and interviews that Mary, uh, I'm sorry, that Mama had done at that time that really helped bring to life, I think, um, what you saw and the, and how people were attracted to this faith and to her particular church, and what she was known for in terms of her passionate preaching, but also just her love and community building.

Deniese DavisGUEST
And with that then came, obviously, um, several businesses in the community, specifically for the Black community of Salt Lake City that didn't have a barber shop or a hair salon, didn't have a, a, a soul food restaurant, and, and really giving back.
