The Chamber of Father Whitmer
Episode 31:
The Chamber of Father Whitmer
Michael MacKay
May 2021
The Prophet Joseph Smith once taught that 鈥渁ll priesthood is Melchizedek.鈥 Thus, the restoration of the priesthood can be understood as a series of heavenly events, including a relatively unknown experience with the Lord at Peter Whitmer Sr.鈥檚 farmhouse. In this powerful episode, Dr. Michael Hubbard MacKay explains what happened 鈥渋n the chamber of old Father Whitmer鈥 (D&C 128:21) and why it matters to our understanding of priesthood.
