"What could I have done more for my vineyard?" In one of the Book of Mormon’s most magisterial passages, the lord of a vineyard looks over his beloved olive trees with great sorrow and strives to redeem them.

No nation can be greater than the strength of its individual homes or the virtue of its people. Sadly, many today would say ours is a nation in crisis. Families are splintering around us, our children are becoming alienated from their great cultural heritage, and our leaders seem increasingly out of touch. Yet, according to Gordon B. Hinckley, president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, one cannot lose hope.

Despite considerable press coverage and a lengthy trial, the full story of the Fundamentalist Church of Latter Day Saints has remained largely untold.

American Zion is the story of the Bundy family, famous for their armed conflicts in the West.

Givens also provides samples of a cast of characters that number in the hundreds, and analyzes representative passages.

If a man is measured by the good he does during his lifetime for the benefit of others, then what are we to think of a man whose influence and dedication continue to bless people 200 years after his birth? The prophet Joseph Smith stands alone as a noble and worthy representative of our Father in Heaven and his son Jesus Christ.

Prepare not only to go to the temple but to be in it as well. Temples are filled with ancient symbols that point directly to the Atonement.

By showing how these symbols all point back to Christ’s Atonement, he aims to enrich and enliven the worship experience that church members can and should expect when they attend the house of the Lord.
