| An Uncommon Common Pioneer: The Journals of James Henry Martineau 1828-1918 edited by Donald G. Godfrey and Rebecca S. Martineau-McCarty ISBN: 9780842526975 Item #26975 Retail: $39.95 The journals of James Henry Martineau are comparably the most descriptively written diaries of their period. They comprise the records of the common Latter-day Saint pioneer. They shed light on the historical events of the era, the lives of average people, and the impact of Church leaders. At times they read more like a novel than a journal. They are exciting, testimony building, and detailed. The reader will see clearly what Martineau is picturing and feel what he is experiencing. His focus was on his family and his work, while the result is a reflection of a common, yet uncommon, Latter-day Saint pioneer. |
| A Land of Promise and Prophecy: Elder A. Theodore Tuttle in South America, 1960–1965 by Mark L. Grover by Mark L. Grover ISBN: 9780842527132 Item #26975 Retail: $25.95 Though not a biography of Elder Tuttle, the book focuses on his activities in South America during this time. Each mission in South America is discussed in relation to Elder Tuttle’s efforts and some of the issues and concerns of the time. The period 1960–65 was key to the evolution of the Church because it represented a significant adjustment in approach and direction, particularly from Church headquarters in Salt Lake City. This history focuses on the personalities and programs of the mission presidents and their wives because the changes that occurred during this period were the product of these men and women. |
| The Colonia Juarez Temple: A Prophet’s Inspiration by Virginia Romney & Richard O. Cowan ISBN: 9780842527279 Item #27279 Retail: $29.95 This is the fascinating story of the Colonia Juárez Chihuahua Mexico Temple, including the inspiration President Gordon B. Hinckley received while visiting Colonia Juárez, to build smaller-sized temples throughout the world. President Hinckley later recalled in the temple dedicatory prayer how the “revelation came of a desire and a prayer to help Thy people of these colonies who have been true and loyal during the century and more that they have lived here. They are deserving of this sacred edifice in which to labor for themselves and their forebears.” This beautifully illustrated book (8 ¼ x 10 ½ inches) highlights the process, the progress, and the sacrifice of the wonderful Saints of the colonies who helped build this beautiful temple. |

| Shedding Light on the New Testament: Acts-Revelations ISBN: 9780842527255 Item #27255 Retail: U.S. $24.95 President Gordon B. Hinckley said, "We are a biblical church. This wonderful testament of the Old World, this great and good Holy Bible is one of our standard works. We teach from it. We bear testimony of it. We read from it. It strengthens our testimony. And we add to that this great second witness, the Book of Mormon, the testament of the New World, for as the Bible says, 'In the mouths of two or three witnesses shall all things be established.'" This volume sheds light on many questions that students of the New Testament attempt to answer, such as: How do we reconcile Paul's teachings on women with the doctrines of the Restoration? What is the relationship between grace and works? What do Latter-day Saints believe about grace? How can we identify spiritual gifts and use them to serve others? How can we guard ourselves against the "wisdom of men" in today's world? |
