The first episode of the series, Hidden in the Heartland asks the question can there be real evidence when it comes to the Book of Mormon.

For the past 100 years, there has been an overwhelming agreement that The Book of Mormon events took place in Central America. But recent questions have challenged that idea. If so, where did the Mesoamerican Model originate from? This episode explores the possibilities.

Did Abraham Lincoln actually read The Book of Mormon? What many people aren't aware of is Joseph Smith ran for President of the United States.
