The Good Book Club held a Q&A with acclaimed author and historian John G. Turner to discuss his book "Joseph Smith: The Rise and Fall of an American Prophet." The discussion was so awesome we had to share it with a wider community! Our book club members asked a wide range of in depth questions and in his answers, John weighs in on the life, teachings, and controversies surrounding the founder of the Latter-day Saint movement, offering a balanced, deeply researched portrait that situates Joseph Smith within the broader currents of American religious history.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy
