Harmonizing the First Vision Accounts

Harmonizing the First Vision Accounts
Kerry Muhlestein
September 2020

Most Latter-day Saints are familiar with the First Vision account in Joseph Smith-History. Many, however, are not as familiar with the numerous other contemporary sources of the event. In this episode, Dr. Kerry Muhlestein discusses powerful insights from his publication, I Saw the Lord, harmonizing nine historical accounts of the First Vision.  When we study the available accounts collectively, fascinating new perspectives can be gained from this foundational event that otherwise may be missed.

Publications:

I Saw the Lord (Deseret Book, 2020)
