"This is an amazing memoir, the most realistic, true-to-life account of a modern-day Mormon mission I've ever read. It feels extremely honest and authentic, with a non-manipulative agenda to depict how it really was for this particular missionary." Christopher Bigelow, Amazon Reviewer. "If you've ever wondered what it's like to be an LDS missionary, this book will give you some terrific insight." A.J. Smith, Amazon Reviewer. "Harvest: Memoir of a Mormon Missionary is unusual in one respect. It neither vilifies the Mormon Church nor does it really applaud it. What it does instead is to show ...

If a list were made of the greatest human beings who have ever lived, those reflected upon in this four-volume series would be at the top of that list. Though historians often attempt to judge greatness from their own subjective perspective, there must be an objective criteria by which human greatness is judged. The only Person Who is capable of establishing that criteria is God. The criteria that God has established are the virtues, as identified by Jesus and revealed by Him through the holy Gospels. The goal of this four-volume series is to present each saint found on the Catholic ...

Book of Mormon principles that have changed my life. This book is not a commentary, nor has it been my objective to explain in these pages the "meaning" of Book of Mormon verses. Rather, it contains chapter by chapter truths that I have gleaned as I have read the Book of Mormon and that have affected me literally eternally. Since 1960, the Book of Mormon has been an integral part of my life. I have read it cover-to-cover on the average of more than once a year since then and continue to do so. My impressions included in this book come from extensive notes that I have made in margins of my ...

My soul bleeds, so I wrote this book. It's a fictional tale about a man who watches his church life slowly turn toxic, and how people can slowly turn off-beam, and the gnawing pain that follows,including martial seperation. It's a fictionalized account of my three decades of experience of dealing with difficulties, and about the repeated times when I have had to confront local leadership about local aberrations. I'm not sure if it is a fairy tale, a horror story, or a tragedy. Certainly it is tragicomic, but that is not something we should be associating with church service. Read the book, ...

This book is the shorter version of my book Paul’s Agon. It seeks to provide a more succinct expression of the key points in that book which is over 500 pages. These chapters represent the issue of what the Apostle Paul actually did and how it has impacted during the two centuries since he invented Christianity and Jesus. Robert’s Razor is the name I have given to the mindset of rejection of anything that cannot possibly be intellectually. Robert’s Razor, similar in intent to Occam’s Razor, rejects any idea that reeks of the mystical and the non-sequitur. It also rejects any moral ...

See how Jesus Christ gave a profound prophetic gift to Joseph Smith, the first prophet of the Latter-day Saint religious movement. Hundreds of prophecies, compiled by timeline, are cited, and many with an explanation of the circumstances around their fulfillment are listed. Follow the young Joseph as he begins to give prophecies in Palmyra, then onto Kirtland and Missouri, ending in Illinois. It might be easy to brush aside a few prophecies, but when dozens-no hundreds- are fulfilled it would be wise to take note. While fulfilled prophecies should not be the entire basis of a testimony of ...

The Complete Pilgrim Guide to Italy is the most comprehensive guide in the English language to date that explores ...

This book is a fascinating new approach to the Book of Mormon that offers new insights into how Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon. Readers have always known the book contains language from the King James Bible, but what about all the non-biblical language? Where did Joseph Smith acquire his lexicon? In his earliest known personal history (1832), Joseph Smith, Jr., said he had an "intimate acquaintance with those of different denominations." Later, when asked about the establishment of the Church, Joseph began with his "experience while in my juvenile years, say from 6 years old up ...

Daughter Zion avoids the extremes of ignoring the biblical foundation for Marian doctrine on the one hand and fundamentalistic proof-texting on the other. Instead, the author beautifully and lucidly develops key biblical themes to help listeners understand and appreciate the mother of God.
