October 13:  Carthage Jail
A look at the participants and the events leading up to the martyrdom of Joseph and Hyrum.  We will also go through the detailed events of their last moments on Earth and recount the stories from Nauvoo following their deaths.
October 20: The Fate of the Persecutors.
What became of those who persecuted the Prophet Joseph Smith? Our job is not to judge their eternal welfare, but how did they fare in mortality? Did they obtain the world notoriety which they had sought? Or, did they end up getting what they had coming to them?  We will explore the fate of 15 men who betrayed the prophet.
Past Recording: Porter Rockwell. 
Hear the true stories of Joseph Smith’s personal bodyguard.  Not only was Porter a physical defender of the faith, but he also defended his faith through testimony, humility, and obedience.  Click Here to watch a recording of this past fireside.
Past Recording: Emma Smith, hero of the Restoration.
Emma is one of my favorites from Church History.  She played a vital role in each of the sacred events of the Restoration.  Multiple stories confirm her devotion to the gospel and her testimony of her husband’s divine calling as Prophet.

Past Recording: Adam-Ondi-Ahman.
Elder Bruce R. McConkie stated, “We now come to the least known and the least understood thing connected with the Second Coming. It might well be termed the best-kept secret set forth in the revealed word. It is something about which the world knows nothing; it is a doctrine that has scarcely dawned on most of the Latter-day Saints themselves; and yet it is set forth in holy writ and in the teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith with substantially the same clarity as any of the doctrines of the kingdom”.  What happened at Adam-ondi-Ahman? What will happen there? How will understanding the past and future events of Adam-ondi-Ahman help me grow closer to the Savior?

Past Recording:  The Handcart Pioneers
The riveting and miraculous stories of those who were part of the Martin and Willie Handcart Companies.
Available Soon!
Past Recording: The Second Coming
“And behold, I come quickly”.  With the Lord’s work hastening and the world in commotion, what are the signs to watch for?  What are the best things to be doing right now to prepare for the Lord’s return.  No gossip or rumors included here!  We will reference the words of the prophets and the words of the Savior to help discover the answers to these two questions.

Past Recording:  Church History In One Hour
I’ll take you from the First Vision to Carthage Jail in one hour, giving you the chance to see all of Church History in chronological order. I’ll tell the history of the Church in a story-like fashion to keep things entertaining, but to allow you to see how the events of the Restoration fit together.
