Critics of Joseph Smith's First Vision contend that the multiple accounts of his experience are inconsistent with each other or with historical facts. They claim that it's an evolving story that becomes more elaborate over time. "Suspicion or Trust" invites readers to examine Joseph's own accounts of the vision, recorded for different purposes and audiences. Each has gaps and omissions, and each adds detail and depth. Rather than casting doubt and suspicion, the historical facts and the richly documented accounts of the First Vision provide many open-minded people a good reason to trust Joseph Smith and to believe that he did indeed see the Father and the Son.
