  • The Christ Who Heals

    How God Restored The Truth That Saves Us

The Christ of the restored gospel collaborated with Heavenly Parents for our salvation even before ... Read more

  • Yet to be Revealed

    Edited by Eric A. Eliason, Terryl L. Givens, BYU Studies ...
    An important part of discipleship is knowing what questions to ask—and which ones have not yet been adequately answered. From the beginning to recent times, prophets have reminded the Saints that the Restoration is ongoing, not an event. Our purpose in assembling this collection of essays is simple: we wish to celebrate the miracle of continuing revelation, and the promise of more to come, that ... Read more
