Episode Details

Lost sermons from Saint Augustine have sparked a thrilling hunt for hidden historical gems—church historians are now cracking codes on ancient shorthand, revealing fresh insights into leaders like John Taylor. With meticulous records kept by early Church figures like Wilford Woodruff and Joseph Smith, even unofficial notes offer layered perspectives—like the seven versions of Smith’s King Follett discourse. But the real treasure? A complete, word-for-word transcript of a speech Smith gave in Washington D.C. in 1840, currently known only through a journalist’s summary. The quest to recover these lost voices shows how much more history might still be waiting to be uncovered.
