Home of Joseph and Emma Smith in Kirtland

After staying in several different homes in Ohio, Joseph and Emma Smith finally moved into a home of their own in Kirtland in late 1833. Here, Joseph received revelations about many matters, including how to organize high councils (Doctrine and Covenants 102), how to help the suffering Saints in Missouri (Doctrine and Covenants 103), how to handle the Church’s financial affairs (Doctrine and Covenants 104), and how to fulfill priesthood offices (Doctrine and Covenants 107).

“I, the Lord, stretched out the heavens, and built the earth, my very handiwork; and all things therein are mine.

“And it is my purpose to provide for my saints, for all things are mine.

“But it must needs be done in mine own way” (Doctrine and Covenants 104:14–16).
