Story
The Book of Mormon is a religious record of three groups of people who migrated from the Old World to the American continents. These groups were led by prophets who recorded their religious and secular histories on metal plates. The Book of Mormon records the visit of Jesus Christ to people in the Americas following his resurrection. A 200-year era of peace followed that visit of Christ.

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.

Significant events such as birth, marriage, and death are milestones in our lives in which we experience our greatest happiness and our deepest grief. And so it is profoundly important to understand how to approach and experience these occasions with grace, endurance, and joy. In On Birth, Timothy Keller - theologian and best-selling author - helps us understand both physical and spiritual birth, as well as how baptism connects the two. Keller draws on 45 years as a pastor and a parent to consider what it means to receive a new birth as well as to be reborn.

A refreshing commentary on the scriptures
When you’re feeling inspired to be spiritual but maybe a little too tired to pop open the Bible or Book of Mormon this book is the answer. Stories and insight into the scriptures that will lead you to look at stories you know and love with fresh eyes. Bravo Marilyn!

This audiobook is for EVERYONE!!
For those wondering if this is just another study companion to the Book of Mormon, and that it's only purpose is to help provide members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints a shortcut to reading their scriptures--IT IS SO MUCH MORE! This book is relevant to everyone--Mormons and non-Mormons. Yes, it explains some of the beliefs of members of the Mormon church, but what it really accomplishes is remarkable. "The User Friendly Book of Mormon" helps reveal what the Book of Mormon really is--The ultimate self-help book. A blueprint for a life of purpose and joy, and a unique specimen of literature. Faulkner takes the reader by the hand and provides a detailed tour of the sometimes difficult terrain of making ancient words relevant to contemporary circumstances. On the surface, you receive specific examples of how to apply the Book of Mormon to the present circumstances and dilemmas of your life. But if you pay closer attention, you will realize you are receiving a private tutorship on how to deconstruct ancient words written by a very different people, and you will develop a new skill that allows you to see very specific solutions to the very specific problems you face everyday. In her writing, Faulkner exhibits both literary mastery and approachable pragmatism. The real bonus is that her book is at times poetry itself. And she delivers the audio version with such grace and style. As soon as I finished listening to the audiobook, I purchased a copy of the book so I could add this treasure to my library.
