University of Utah Press,U.S. Joseph’s Temple: The Dynamic Relationship between
Book SynopsisThe apparent parallels between Mormon ritual and doctrine and those of Freemasonry have long been recognised. That Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and other early church leaders were Masons, at least for a time, is common knowledge. Yet while early historians of the LDS Church openly acknowledged this connection, the question of influence was later dismissed and almost became taboo among faithful church members. Just as Mormons have tried to downplay any ties to Freemasonry, Masons have sought to distance themselves from Mormonism. In Joseph’s Temples, Michael Homer reveals how deeply the currents of Freemasonry and Mormonism entwined in the early nineteenth century. He goes on to lay out the declining course of relations between the two movements, until a détente in recent years.There are indications that Freemasonry was a pervasive foundational element in Mormonism and that its rituals and origin legends influenced not just the secret ceremonies of the LDS temples but also such important matters as the organisation of the Mormon priesthood, the foundation of the women’s Relief Society, the introduction and concealment of polygamy, and the church’s position on African Americans’ full membership. Freemasonry was also an important facet of Mormons’ relations with broader American society.The two movements intertwined within a historical context of early American intellectual, social, and religious ferment, which influenced each of them and in varying times and situations placed them either in the current or against the flow of mainstream American culture and politics. Joseph’s Temples provides a comprehensive examination of a dynamic relationship and makes a significant contribution to the history of Mormonism, Freemasonry, and their places in American history.Trade Review"The significance of Michael Homer's work cannot be overstated. He has accomplished what no other author has done on this topic. Mormon Studies has been waiting for a work like this." —Michael G. Reed, author of Banishing the Cross: The Emergence of a Mormon Taboo "The definitive treatment by the acknowledged authority in this field—long awaited, and needed since the 1820s. Homer skips the nonsense but not the details in this masterful perspective on the many meanings of Masonry in the Mormon world." —Rick Grunder, editor of Mormon Parallels: A Bibliographic Source "The scholarship is perfect. The thousands of references in the footnotes, the wealth of data offered is often mind boggling: the book's thesis is buttressed by hundreds of primary sources. Because it is so well written with a clever sense of suspense and progression, the reader has the feeling that he is reading a detective story. Homer's style is limpid, didactical, and always understandable." —Bernadette Rigal-Cellard, author of La Religion des Mormons "Michael Homer's early articles basically created the new field of the global study of the interactions between Mormonism and Freemasonry. With this book, for many years in the making, we finally have the definitive treatment of this important and controversial issue." —Massimo Introvigne, author of Les Mormons “Takes a topic that has been the subject of endless fantasy and vituperation, and discusses it in a clear, sensible and scholarly way.”—www.patheos.com “What makes this book particularly excellent is the care Homer takes in drawing together the intellectual and cultural traditions of Mormonism and Freemasonry to explain past and current trends in both organizations….You are missing an important contribution to the field of Mormon history if this book is not on your bookshelf.”—Association of Mormon Letters “This is a very important book. Homer has been working for many years on the impressive research underpinning Joseph’s Temples, and has presented it in a careful restrained exposition. It will stand for decades as the essential guide to a hotly debated topic. ”—The Journal of Mormon History “An excellent piece of scholarship…. The comprehensive, descriptive nature of the text provides a solid starting point for future studies on the topic. For those interested in researching and writing about Freemasonry and Mormonism, Joseph’s Temples will be the foundation for any serious inquiry for a long time to come.”—Utah Historical Quarterly

University of Utah Press,U.S. The Earth Will Appear as the Garden of Eden:
Book SynopsisAlthough scholars have increasingly investigated the impact of religion and religious movements on nature, studies of the interactions between Mormons and the natural environment are few. This volume applies the perspectives of environmental history to Mormonism, providing both a scholarly introduction to Mormon environmental history and a spur for historians to consider the role of nature in the Mormon past.Mormons have interacted with nature in significant ways—whether perceiving in it a place to find God, wildness needing domestication and control, uncorrupted spaces in which to build communities to usher in the Second Coming, or a world brimming with natural resources to ensure economic well-being. The essays in this volume—written by leading scholars in both environmental and Mormon history—explore how nature has influenced Mormon beliefs and how these beliefs inform Mormons’ encounters with nature. Introducing overarching environmental ideas, contributors examine specific aspects of nature and Mormon theology to glean new insights into the Mormon experience.Trade Review“This felicitous collection deepens our understanding of the changing relationship between Latter-day Saints and the environmental world that here encompasses land, water, habitat, place, and home. A milestone in Mormon studies and a benchmark for future scholarship.” — Jared Farmer, author of On Zion’s Mount: Mormons, Indians, and the American Landscape“A significant contribution. These essays provide a synthesis of the growing literature in the field as well as a springboard and road map for future studies.” — Andrew H.

University of Utah Press,U.S. The Bible and the Latter-day Saint Tradition
Book SynopsisLike other Christian denominations, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) has been engaged in the battle for the Bible since challenges to biblical authority began to exert significant influence in America toward the end of the nineteenth century. Other believing communities have responded with various reevaluations of biblical text. Latter-day Saints have experimented with similar approaches, often taking liberal positions on biblical authority and conservative positions on history and authorship. However, Latter-day Saints accept additional scripture as well as embracing a theology notably distinct from traditional Christianity. Hence, Latter-day Saints relate to the Bible differently from other Christians, creating gaps with mainstream biblical studies. This volume bridges that gap.From comparing the Book of Mormon to the Bible or the Dead Sea Scrolls, to Mormon feminists’ biblical studies approaches to the Gospels, this volume takes a comprehensive and inclusive approach to understanding Bible scholarship’s role in Mormon history and exploring these differences for both scholars and students. A diverse group of contributors presents an accessible resource to mediate between Latter-day Saint traditions and the broader context of biblical history, literature, and scholarship. Each essay provides a synopsis of relevant major scholarly views and delivers new insights into a wide variety of Bible receptions.Trade Review “One of the great strengths of this collection is how it often offers different perspectives, offered by different scholars, to similar concerns or texts. In so doing, it adds a nice breadth of approach and depth of competing analyses.”—Paul C. Gutjahr, Indiana University “The Sheer amount of information is impressive and makes the volume invaluable to scholars of many disciplines.

University of Utah Press,U.S. Like a Fiery Meteor: The Life of Joseph F. Smith
Book Synopsis Joseph F. Smith was born in 1838 to Hyrum Smith and Mary Fielding Smith. Six years later both his father and his uncle, Joseph Smith Jr., the founding prophet of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, were murdered in Carthage, Illinois. The trauma of that event remained with Joseph F. for the rest of his life, affecting his personal behavior and public tenure in the highest tiers of the LDS Church, including the post of president from 1901 until his death in 1918. Joseph F. Smith laid the theological groundwork for modern Mormonism, especially the emphasis on temple work. This contribution was capped off by his “revelation on the redemption of the dead,” a vision accepted by Mormons as a prophetic glimpse into the afterlife. Taysom’s book traces the roots of this vision, which reach far more deeply into Joseph F. Smith’s life than other scholars have previously identified. In this first cradle-to-grave biography of Joseph F. Smith, Stephen C. Taysom uses previously unavailable primary source materials to craft a deeply detailed, insightful story of a prominent member of a governing and hugely influential Mormon family. Importantly, Taysom situates Joseph F. Smith within the historical currents of American westward expansion, rapid industrialization, settler colonialism, regional and national politics, changing ideas about family and masculinity, and more. Though some writers tend to view the LDS Church and its leaders through a lens of political and religious separatism, Taysom does the opposite, pushing Joseph F. Smith and Mormonism closer to the centers of power in Washington, DC, and elsewhere. Trade ReviewThis remarkable, path-breaking, sometimes jaw-dropping Joseph F. Smith biography makes an immense contribution to the fields of Mormon history and Mormon studies." —John Turner, George Mason University"Taysom has done a marvelous job of mining the voluminous primary sources available to him, primarily in church archives. He has produced a detailed, textured, and fascinating biography of a major but underappreciated figure in Latter-day Saint history." —Patrick Q.

Huia Publishers Let Their Light So Shine: Mormon Leades in New
Book SynopsisLet Their Light So Shine follows the growth of the Mormon Church from a 'fledgling New Zealand Church' to a 'Maori Church' and, finally, to becoming part of the global organisation The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The recollections from direct descendants of leaders in the Church in New Zealand highlight the accomplishments and influences of these twelve men: Matene Rutatenga, James Elkington, William Roberts, Steve Watene, Pateriki Te Rei, Ian Garry, Kenneth Palmer, Nitama Paewai, Geoffrey Garlick, Ben Couch, Douglas Martin and Te Puoho Katene. Moving from the 1800s to 2010, the histories of these leaders record their experiences within the Church, their communities and their families and enable their inspiring stories to be preserved for future generations. This is the third book in the series about early leaders in the Mormon Church in New Zealand, following Turning the Hearts of the Children and By Their Fruits You Will Know Them.Table of ContentsForeword Charles A.

The book draws on the perspectives and experiences of sixteen writers, including historians, academics, social scientists, ecclesiastical leaders and critics. It explores key developments that laid the foundations of a global mainstream religion in New Zealand and took it into the twenty-first century – the establishment of a New Zealand Mission, European converts gathering to Utah, the reconciliation of Māori cultural traditions with church teachings, a national church building programme, new executive-style administrative leadership and the effect of socio-cultural societal changes. Build for Eternity gives insight into the impact of the American-based religion and culture on people in New Zealand, particularly Māori, over the past 170 years.

Booklocker.com God's Existence Makes Absolutely No Sense: That
Book SynopsisThis work is a compilation of my events in a faith journey that began as I engaged in a so-so Catholic Church practice to a gradual embracing and immersing into daily Mass, and a total renunciation of sin. I take the reader from my early youth when nuns taught us the catechism and all the common Catholic prayers to an up-and-down relationship with God during my college years and beyond. However, I also point out that it was not until after a few years of married life that I began attending Mass daily. The catalyst was my wife''s devout faith. Once I enhanced my daily spiritual actions, from attending Mass to reciting the rosary and many other prayers, I found my spiritual niche with no small credit to the Holy Spirit. I make no claim whatever to perfection, and I am no saint, but immersing myself in God''s will has made me an infinitely stronger believer and person.I do not preach or ask the reader to make a stronger faith commitment, just to accept God and believe that eternal rewards lie at the end of our journey here on Earth. Further, I employ humor and even a few jokes throughout the book. After all, God has a sense of humor. My late wife told me that, saying, God loves humor. He created you, didn''t He? Yes, and I thank him every day upon awakening for the incredible gifts of life and faith. They are irreplaceable and I am grateful to not only have them, but also to fully embrace him with immense joy and gratitude.

Double 9 Books The Book Of Mormon
Book SynopsisThe Book of Mormon, by Joseph Smith, is a holy book in Mormonism and the founding scripture of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). This work of literature is classified as historical, and it is a great collection of ideas which have been condensed into a single draft for readers of all ages to read. As the title character is so self-indulgent, readers are forced to keep reading. Some tales are violent and strange, while others creep up on you and slowly imbibeyou in. Its followers think it is a divinely created record of ancient American peoples. According to him, the Prophet Joseph Smith interpreted whatever appeared on a set of golden plates etched with ancient script and directed to him by an angel named Moroni. The Story of Mormon narrative tells the story of various ancient tribes of people who came to the Americas and interacted with God. This edition of The Book of Mormon is both modern and legible, with an eye-catching new cover and professionally typeset manuscript.
