I can't say that it directly effected my Testimony, but it did give me new perspective on the Prophet and the early days of the church. I had to accept at a deeper level that Prophets are flawed people who can and do make huge blunders, even while following the directions of the Lord (which is not a reflection on the Lord, just on a man's ability to follow His instructions when they allow other people and situations and opinions to influence their actions).
