This is an audio recording of a Fireside held in Southern Utah on January 13 2018 on Joseph Smith’s polygamy. We share the accounts of the plural wives of the Prophet Joseph Smith in their very words. Going through multiple accounts one begins to see a pattern appear. Religious pressure, rhetoric to each women that gives the impression they are the first being approached to “start the principle”, young girls working or living in the Smith home encouraged to become plural wives, and imposed deadlines for these women to make a decision. Once one works through all the data, it seems impossible to avoid the uncomfortable realization that there is a deep unhealthiness in Joseph implementation of polygamy and we get to the heart of the matter.
