The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, has been around for almost two centuries. It has ebbed and fluctuated in such a predictably adaptive manner throughout it's relatively short life in the religious realm. This Church has a very sordid past, which it does a very good job of teaching for itself, whether the history is slanted or not, is yours to decide. Join me on a journey through the history of the LDS Church through the eyes of the people that were actually there. We will learn about the founding members, where the practices came from, where the Book of Mormon (Mormon Bible) came from, and most importantly, we will examine Joseph Smith in every aspect possibly available to us today.

In the immediate aftermath of the June 27, 1844 assassinations of Hyrum and Joseph Smith, the Mormon population was tossed into turmoil and uncertainty. The Nauvoo leadership was a skeleton crew as most church and civil servants were across the nation electioneering for Joseph's POTUS campaign. With the newly-created power vacuum, the battle for control of the Mormon bloc begins. With at least 8 different succession methods, the various competitors emerge and immediately begin making their moves. Everybody gears up for the August 8th, 1844 conference where the new leadership will be voted by Common Consent.
