Monarchy in Mormonism

Although James Strang is perhaps the Mormon who is most famous for crowning himself king, he did so in emulation of Joseph Smith Jr, who restored "the kingdom of God on earth" in his final year and was anointed its king in a secret ceremony of the Council of Fifty. John Hamer will look at the evolution of the prophetic monarchy as it has continued in the two largest sects of the Restoration: the Utah-based Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the Missouri-based Community of Christ and consider the future of both institutions.
