In this episode, we explore the historical evidence behind the Spalding–Rigdon theory, the affidavits collected against Joseph Smith, and the importance of accurately representing those we seek to refute. We also trace the development of the School of the Prophets, the beginnings of Mormon temple practices, and the enormous financial sacrifices surrounding the construction of the Kirtland Temple as Joseph Smith’s religious movement continued to expand toward an approaching crisis.
