After centuries of intellectual evolution, from the worship of nature to the rise of monotheism, from Augustine to Nietzsche, Western culture has now canonized a materialist worldview that insists life is an accident, and meaning is a myth.

Lehi's dream and Nephi's interpretive vision are visionary-literary accounts of the two temple ordinances at the heart of the worship of Lehi's "visionary men" -- the Peace Offerings and the Day of Atonement.

When we donate money to victims of natural disasters, or offer our forgiveness, or consider it a government’s responsibility to provide some basic assistance to those in need­­, we are (knowingly or not) demonstrating the enduring legacy of a particularly Christian kind of love.
