In the immediate aftermath of the martyrdom of Joseph and Hyrum Smith, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints faced an uncertain and deeply emotional crossroads. Without its founding prophet, who would lead the Saints? Lynne and Janiece unpack the confusion, tension, and spiritual searching that followed, exploring the claims of various contenders—including Sidney Rigdon, who argued for guardianship of the Church—as well as other voices who stepped forward during this turbulent period. Together they trace how fear, grief, and competing visions for the future created a moment of genuine crisis for the Saints. With expert insight, Janiece Johnson provides rich historical context, helping viewers understand the different claims to take leadership of the Church—and how the eventual path forward reshaped the trajectory of the Restoration. If you’re interested in Latter-day Saint history, the legacy of Joseph Smith, or the development of Church leadership, this episode offers a thoughtful and faith-focused look at a defining moment in 1844. Also enjoy a brief segment on Joseph F. Smith's vision of the dead in the spirit world from section 138. Tune in for a conversation filled with depth, clarity, and remarkable historical detail.

Bear River Massacre Converted to Miracle (Restoration Revealed Episode 29)

In this powerful episode of Restoration Revealed, host Casey Griffiths explores the tragic events of the Bear River Massacre, which took place near Preston in January 1863. Often overlooked in American history, this little-known battle stands as the deadliest single massacre of Native Americans in United States history. As U.S. soldiers clashed with Northwestern Shoshone men, women, and children along the frozen banks of the Bear River, hundreds lost their lives in a devastating confrontation that forever changed the region. Casey carefully walks viewers through the historical context, the causes of rising tensions, and the heartbreaking human cost of the tragedy. Yet from this profound sorrow emerged an unexpected story of faith and reconciliation. In the years that followed, several Shoshone chiefs reported powerful dreams and spiritual manifestations of the Great Spirit that guided them toward peace and ultimately toward membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Their conversions became a remarkable chapter of healing and spiritual transformation born from unimaginable loss. This episode thoughtfully gives voice to both the tragedy and the hope that followed—revealing how faith, revelation, and redemption can arise even from one of the darkest moments in American history.
