Godhead
Webster's defines Godhead as "the nature of God especially as dwelling in three persons." One belief that sets Mormons apart is the nature of the Godhead (God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost). Mormons believe that God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost are three separate beings united in purpose. Each is a separate, distinct being. God and Jesus each have bodies similar to ours (Genesis 1:26); the Holy Ghost is a personage of Spirit allowing Him to dwell with us. For centuries many people have been confused about who God is or what He looked like. We were created in His image and we know that He is in human form.
Here is a stain glass depiction of the First Vision (when God and Jesus Christ appeared to Joseph Smith).
