Defending the rights of religion and belief, freedom of speech and of the press, freedom to assemble, and the freedom to petition the government is the responsibility of every citizen. The interdependent nature of these freedoms not only requires every citizen to defend them generally and to defend them for those we agree with but, more importantly, to defend these rights for those with whom we disagree. Indeed, if all Americans, believers and non-believers, do not put the first freedoms first, we will not have a sustainable republic that will last. Through numerous interviews, we will paint the picture of why these first freedoms are first.

There have been many paintings, drawings, sculptures and even stained glass windows done of the First Vision and each of them shows the way that artists and faithful have connected with Joseph Smith’s account of what happened to him in a grove of trees near his home 200 years ago.     

This Spring marks 200 years since Joseph Smith’s First Vision, where he says he saw God the Father and His son Jesus Christ appear to him in a grove of trees near his home. That experience was the catalyst for forming The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. 

Some scholars believe March 26th could have been the day that 14-year-old Joseph Smith had his First Vision.   "Whether you believe it or not, it symbolizes man’s yearning to connect to heaven. There's something universal there," says church historian Spencer McBride.
