I Found It: Why 1820

It is a happy day.

On my mission, I had two favorite talks: "The Purifying Power of Gethsemane" by Bruce R. McConkie and "Why 1820?" by Hyrum W. Smith. Loved them. The former was pretty easy to track down – it's in the April 1985 Conference. The latter wasn't so easy.

For three years, I've been trying to find it, and I finally stumbled upon it via a random blog post. (I google for it every now and then, hoping to find it.) In one of the comments, someone identified the talk. It was given at a Ricks College devotional on September 27, 1988.  The title is simply "Restoration of the Church".

I love the Internet.
