    #2 - John Taylor

    In this episode of Prophets, we dive into the life of John Taylor, 3rd President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. A philosopher, poet, and prophet, Taylor’s life was marked by boldness, intellect, and deep conviction. We explore: His upbringing in England and early spiritual hunger that led him to search beyond traditional religion. His fiery debates with Parley P. Pratt in Canada and powerful conversion to the restored gospel. A rapid rise to apostleship, civic leadership in Nauvoo, and fierce loyalty to Joseph Smith. His firsthand account of the martyrdom at Carthage Jail — including the miraculous survival after being shot four times. Fearless missionary work in England, France, and Germany — including translating the Book of Mormon into French. Defending plural marriage amid growing persecution and refusing to compromise his faith. Leading the Church underground as President during the Edmunds-Tucker Act era and dying in exile for his beliefs. His famous declaration of total devotion: “The kingdom of God or nothing.” This is a public episode.

His time in Utah Territorial Prison and the faith he showed through trial. Receiving the tithing revelation that freed the Church from crushing debt. Helping finish and dedicate the Salt Lake Temple.
