"This essay reviews the efforts of the young Church of Christ to comply with the early revelations and expectations of President Joseph Smith Jr. (1831-33) regarding the establishment of Zion in Independence, Jackson County, Missouri. This nearly three-year period came to a dramatic and tragic end in the late fall of 1833, with the expulsion of the church and its members from Jackson County.
"After this pioneering attempt to establish Zion, this article shifts to the efforts of three separate expressions of the Restoration (churches who base their beginnings on the early mission and revelations of Joseph Smith), namely: the Church of Christ (Temple Lot), the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (now known as Community of Christ), and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, to "redeem Zion" in compliance with other instructions/revelations by Smith in the years following the expulsion." -
