Book Description
The Challenge the Book of Mormon Makes to the World takes its name from a remarkable document authored by Hugh B. Brown which outlines thirty conditions any writer would need to meet to write a book comparable to the Book of Mormon. With these conditions as framework, the book provides extensive evidence in support of the assertion that neither Joseph Smith, an unlearned farm boy, nor the most celebrated of scholars, or anyone else, could have produced the Book of Mormon without divine aid. Among the many evidences found in this meticulously researched book, are what have been called "infallible proofs" of the Book of Mormon--literary, linguistic, archaeological, doctrinal, historical, prophetic--along with many beautiful stories of conversion. The Challenge is written to help brighten the flame of testimony in everyday Latter-day Saints, in those in which it may have dimmed, and in sincere investigators of the restored gospel.

Mormon Women at the Crossroads
Author: Caroline Kline
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 0252053354
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
Winner of the Mormon History Association Best International Book Award The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints continues to contend with longstanding tensions surrounding gender and race. Yet women of color in the United States and across the Global South adopt and adapt the faith to their contexts, many sharing the high level of satisfaction expressed by Latter-day Saints in general. Caroline Kline explores the ways Latter-day Saint women of color in Mexico, Botswana, and the United States navigate gender norms, but also how their moral priorities and actions challenge Western feminist assumptions. Kline analyzes these traditional religious women through non-oppressive connectedness, a worldview that blends elements of female empowerment and liberation with a broader focus on fostering positive and productive relationships in different realms. Even as members of a patriarchal institution, the women feel a sense of liberation that empowers them to work against oppression and against alienation from both God and other human beings. Vivid and groundbreaking, Mormon Women at the Crossroads merges interviews with theory to offer a rare discussion of Latter-day Saint women from a global perspective.
