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 God’s help, he translates the record and organizes the Savior’s 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 Lord’s call to write history “for the good of the church, and for the rising generations” (Doctrine and Covenants 69:8).

I loved hearing this historical account of the early Latter Day Saints and how the Church of Jesus Christ was forged from the hardships and trials of the early Saints. This is a faith filled story of hope and determination and standing with God even when an entire country conspired against them.

I am not a Latter Day Saint but a Christian. I was always curious about their history and their beliefs. this book will share so much information especially the persecution against them which I had no idea.

This is a powerfully written historical account of the experiences of the early members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It is well researched and frequently quotes first hand accounts. Listening to this book connected the dots for me of many historical events I was familiar with and infused my understanding with a sense of humanity and context.

This edition provides the signature cross-platform continuous listening experience of Audible, which is a welcome improvement over the freely available edition found in the Gospel Library app (which is an amazing resource in every other way). This added convenience helped me finish the book, which I had previously started twice.

if you are a fan of history or want to gain a deeper appreciation for the early Saints, this is a must-read.

I empathized with the Saints all the way through. Many of my ancestors were among them and I was constantly thinking of them and what they endured.

Awesome and Moving

Easy to listen and follow. Great depth in revealing the character and spirit of the lives…with a strong desire to present opposing thoughts…presenting facts fairly, allowing the reader to ultimately decide

Loving the presentation of the Saints in these volumes
