The volume is available in print through Cedar Fort Publishing.
"We were both very interested in telling this story in a way that had not been done before in the previous films or story adaptations,” he said. “We wanted to include details contained in the four official accounts that haven't been portrayed visually before. This included the presence of angels, the difficult battle with Satan, the influence of [Joseph Smith's] mother's personal testimony of her near-death experience, and the physical nature of the pillar of light.”[1]
Knaupp is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
