Preserving the Past

One of the earliest revelations given to Joseph Smith was D&C 21:1, which admonishes, "Behold there shall be a record kept among you.... " Former LDS Church Historian, Elder Marlin K. Jensen, said, "A historic site is a record in a sense. There are many ways to keep that record, and one of the ways is to preserve a place, a building, an artifact that represents history." This episode of History of the Saints is about saving that history.
