Sacred Places - Nauvoo, Illinois
Home to the Latter-Day Saints from 1838 to 1846. Nauvoo, the Beautiful, was one of the largest cities in the United States during this time period, rivaling Chicago in population. Joseph Smith, The Prophet, loved this City, the Temple, and the Saints of the Most High. Nauvoo, as its name implies, is a place of peace and rest, and is still one of the most beautiful cities in the United States.

Top 10 Most Beautiful LDS Temples.
In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), a temple is a building dedicated to be a House of the Lord, and they are considered by church members to be the most sacred structures on earth. Upon completion, temples are usually open to the public for a short period of time (an Open House). During the Open House, the church conducts tours of the temple with missionaries and members from the local area serving as tour guides, and all rooms of the temple are open to the public. The temple is then dedicated as a House of the Lord, after which only members who are deemed worthy are permitted entrance. Thus, they are not churches (meetinghouses) but rather places of worship. The church is a prolific builder of temples as they hold a key place in LDS theology. There are 147 operating temples (which includes 5 previously dedicated, but closed for renovation), 13 under construction, and 13 announced (not yet under construction). At present, there are temples in many U.S. states, as well as in many countries across the world. Several temples are at sacred sites of the LDS Church, such as Nauvoo, Illinois and Palmyra, New York. The importance of temples is often emphasized in weekly meetings, and regular participation in temple work is strongly encouraged for all Latter-day Saints (LDS).
PURPOSE
Temples have held numerous purposes in the Latter Day Saint movement, both historically and their differing expressions today. These purposes include:
A House of the Lord — Joseph Smith, Jr. reported a revelation in 1836 explaining that the recently dedicated Kirtland Temple was built that the Son of Man might have a place to manifest himself to his people. (Doctrine and Covenants LDS 109:5). All Latter Day Saint denominations with temples still consider temples to be special houses of the Lord.
A House of Learning — The Kirtland Temple housed the School of the Prophets.
Center of the City of Zion — Latter Day Saints often view temples as central to the establishment of Zionic communities. Examples include: the Kirtland Temple, the original (unfinished) Independence Temple, the (unfinished) Far West Temple, the (unfinished) Adam-ondi-Ahman Temple, the original Nauvoo Temple, the Salt Lake Temple, the St. George Utah Temple, the Mesa Arizona Temple, the Laie Hawaii Temple, and others.
Headquarters of the church — the Kirtland Temple served as the headquarters of the early church from its completion in 1836 through the end of 1837.
Sacred spaces for special ordinances — Beginning in Nauvoo, temples were spaces in which to perform special ordinances such as the endowment and

ROAD TRIPPIN: The Red Brick Store
NAUVOO, IL (FOX28/CBS2) Walk through the door of The Red Brick Store at the Joseph Smith Historic Site and when it shuts behind you gaze around the room. You have just instantly been transported to the 1840s boom town of Nauvoo, Illinois on the banks of the Mississippi River. A gathering place where thousands of believers came to find faith in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. That required goods for everyday life and survival and Site Director Lachlan Mackay says church founder Joseph Smiths building was stocked with everything you could want, It was a general store, one of about 35 in Nauvoo, so you might come here for fabric or sewing supplies or salt pork. The entire back wall behind the counter is covered in bowls, china, iron skillets and coffee pots, lanterns and dry goods. A string of colorful bonnets women wore at the time stretches overhead. You can buy The Book of Mormon , a real feather quill pen and spend hours just looking through the barrels of hard candy, the kind you didnt know anyone made anymore. A family can be overheard debating the medicinal merits of Horehound Candy versus what a grandma calls its nasty taste. Its all products listed in one of the original day books that showed what customers purchased 170 years ago. On the counter by the window, you can also read the platform Joseph Smith presented in his bid for president of the United States and then walk upstairs to an assembly room on the site where he was nominated. Volunteers, who act as guides, answer questions and explain the events that later lead to the shooting death of Smith and his brother before church members finally left the town to trek west, to Salt Lake City. Its the reason everyone calls this Historic Nauvoo. It is steeped in the past, designed for education and understanding, but also carries a promise of family fun and entertainment in a number of locations including The Red Brick Store. Come along as Reporter Matt Hammill takes you on our latest ROAD TRIPPIN adventure to Nauvoo, Illinois !
S1 Ep 5 Nauvoo Illinois (A Hidden Gem!) Traveling family of 7
We are a family of 7, living full time in our RV, traveling the US—west to east coast—for our first season! For this episode we visited the town of Nauvoo Illinois. What a fun place! We had a blast seeing all the sites and participating in all the action.
I apologize for missing our video last week. When I went to make last week’s video almost all the audio was messed up. I think it was due to swimming with our go-pro which messed the audio recording up for days. I was unable to salvage anything that I could make a video with.
We are excited to have you join us as we embark on this journey! Subscribe to our channel for a new video of our travels every week.

What Happened to Emma when Joseph Smith Died?
In this series, Firm Foundations, we examine history and doctrine pertaining to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We examine the LDS (Mormon) faith and culture in order to separate the facts from the fiction in LDS history and doctrine.
While the creators of the show are members of the LDS church, this show is not affiliated with or endorsed by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We strive to be independent critics, learning about and explaining Mormon culture and history, and sometimes calling for changes to ideas and assumptions we hold as members when the evidence doesn’t back up our long-held myths or ideas about the church, it’s policies, or it’s leaders.
Emma Smith is one of the most important and stalwart members of the early church. How was she involved in the restoration? Did she endure to the end? What is Emma’s story? We answer all these questions and more in this episode.
In every video we carefully craft the scripts and fact-check our stories. We examine facts, scriptures, doctrinal sources, historical documents, modern surveys, psychology, and scientific data. Hannah, as the writer and researcher, interprets this information and crafts it into a factually accurate, but interesting and dynamic episode. It is important to our mission that we not sugar coat or ignore facts, and that we include all pertinent information and use empathy when examining individuals’ choices. We want to empower you to do the same. We always include links to our sources below each video, so that viewers can dig deeper into the source material, ask questions, and find the truth. Check out our sources for this video below.

Roadtrip Trip 2016 - Part 2 (Nauvoo, Illinois)
The historic town of the LDS Church... Nauvoo Illinois. My parents and I visited this beautiful town in July 2016.
Getting to the Truth in LDS Church History
In this series, Firm Foundations, we examine history and doctrine pertaining to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We examine the LDS (Mormon) faith and culture in order to separate the facts from the fiction in LDS history and doctrine.
While the creators of the show are members of the LDS church, this show is not affiliated with or endorsed by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We strive to be independent critics, learning about and explaining Mormon culture and history, and calling for changes to ideas and assumptions we hold as members when the evidence doesn’t back up our long-held myths or ideas about the church, it’s policies, or it’s leaders.
In this episode special guest and historian Dr. Steven C. Harper explains how to critically and faithfully study history. We discuss why what we know about history seems to change, how to use the historical method to find factual answers in historical documents, why people who study church history have different responses to their faith, and how to deal with anomalies in church history.
In every video we carefully craft the scripts and fact-check our stories. We examine facts, scriptures, doctrinal sources, historical documents, modern surveys, psychology, and scientific data. Hannah, as the writer, interprets this information through her own lens, as do all individuals. This is why it is so important to us that we include information that is not always flattering to one party or another, and that we use empathy when examining individuals’ choices. Because we want you to do the same, we always include links to our sources below each video, so that viewers can dig deeper into the source material, ask questions, and find the truth.
