In 1820, a young farm boy in search of truth has a vision of God the Father and Jesus Christ. Three years later, an angel guides him to an ancient record buried in a hill near his home. With Gods help, he translates the record and organizes the Saviors church in the latter days. Soon others join him, accepting the invitation to become Saints through the Atonement of Jesus Christ. But opposition and violence follow those who defy old traditions to embrace restored truths. The women and men who join the church must choose whether or not they will stay true to their covenants, establish Zion, and proclaim the gospel to a troubled world. The Standard of Truth is the first book in Saints, a new, four-volume narrative history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Fast-paced, meticulously researched, Saints recounts true stories of Latter-day Saints across the globe and answers the Lords call to write history for the good of the church, and for the rising generations (Doctrine and Covenants 69:8).

Done. I laughed, I cried, I wanted to throw the book across the room and shout “Hallelujah!” so in terms of turbulent, passionate, seemingly impossible and guided history, this takes the cake 🎂! It strengthened my testimony, empowered me, and it looks like a porcupine with all the post-it flags. Plus it‘s a treasure trove of sources. Best part: there‘s 4 total!! #recentlyread #churchhistory #lds #saints 🙏🏻❤️🥰📚
